Terah Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 In my internet search I came across this article that gave me some ideas It actually is that easy: if I want to lose weight I need to eat less kcal. But I won't count kcal, it's just not for me. I get rebellious and sabotage myself (yes, I'm weird that way ) The last challenges (ok, the last 20 challenges) I kept switching goals. No more. Now I'm goint to stick to my goals and won't alter them just because I can't hit them perfectly. At the end of the challenge I will evaluate, modify if necessary and do again My most important rule this challenge:Progress doesn't require perfection, it only requires good enough Or as my teachers back at school said: good is better than best So if when I screw up I will pick myself up and go again. My quests: 3 meals a day, no snacking Less eating moments is less kcal. I can eat whatever I like during these meals. So if I want chocolate or ice cream or something like that, that's okay, it just has to be part of the meal Work on improving my business so I can make more money Right now I make very little money with my business. It's enough to buy something extra now and again, but it would be nice to have a little more income. I've bought a course on webshop design and a course about writing for the internet (how search engines can find you and such) and I'm going to level up my webshop using these tools. Goal: work on these courses and the actions emanating from it for at least 3 hours each week. 17 Quote Doodlie for life, Pancake by choice Current Challenge Spoiler Challenge 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 Challenges 2017: 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 Challenges 2018: 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, Challenges 2019: 36, 37, 38, 39, 40 Challenges 2020: 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 Challenges 2023: 46, 47 Link to comment

WolfDreamer Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 1 minute ago, Terah said: I must admit that it took me 20 challenges to get to this conclusion I hear ya loud and clear. I'm kind of new to the Rebellion (on my third challenge right now) and I sort of instinctively aim high with a lot of stuff. But I'm often thinking about my Level 50 (which resembles a cross between Bear Grylls, a Na'vi, and Tarzan). So rather than feel distressed when I don't meet every goal, I instead ask myself: Did I take steps closer to my Level 50? If so, then I feel successful. 2 Quote Who am I? -- My NF Character Current Challenge: WolfDreamer Reboots Past Challenges: Spoiler Winter is Coming, Wolfen Strengthens His Heart, Body, Mind, and Spirit, Wolfen Becomes One of the People, Wolfen Strengthens His Chakras, Wolfen Welcomes Summer and Gets Primal, Soulcon and Spartan, Wolfen Develops Mental Toughness, Wolfen Joins the Wander Society, Soulcon, Spartan, School, and Stranger Things, Wolfen Becomes a Warrior Elite, Wolfen Goes Here and There and Back Again, Wolfen Becomes a Soulcon Warrior Elite, Wolfen Returns to His Roots, Wolfen Wanders in Soul, Spirit, and Body, Wolfen Owns the Day, Wolfen Searches for His Wild Heart, Wolfen Runs for His Life, Wolfen Hits the Trails, Wolfen Becomes an Explorer and Joins the Resistance, Wolfen Goes Back to the Source, Wolfen Begins the Hero's Journey, WolfDreamer Returns to the People, WolfDreamer Pushes Back, WolfDreamer Prioritizes, Burpees, Books, and Brainwork, Burpees, Books, Brainwork, and Bodywork, WolfDreamer Masters the Four Elements, WolfDreamer Continues to Master the Four Elements, WolfDreamer Returns to Sparta, WolfDreamer Returns to Middle Earth, WolfDreamer Continues His Middle Earth Adventure, WolfDreamer and the Fall, WolfDreamer Forges His Own Path, WolfDreamer Has Hope, WolfDreamer Returns to Middle Earth, WolfDreamer Reads Harder, Breathes Harder, and Journals More, WolfDreamer Embraces His Wild Poet, The Mad Poet Becomes Supernatural, WolfDreamer, The Mad Poet, Becomes Superhuman, WolfDreamer Elevates, WolfDreamer Becomes IronBorn, WolfDreamer Wakes the White Wolf, The Mad Poet Recovers by Keeping it Simple, WolfDreamer Clears His Mind to Find His Wild Heart, WolfDreamer Resets, WolfDreamer Strives to Become an Eminently Qualified Peaceful Warrior, WolfDreamer Springs Forward, WolfDreamer Returns (For Real This Time), WolfDreamer is RespaWinning “I'd rather sing one wild song and burst my heart with it, than live a thousand years watching my digestion and being afraid of the wet.” -- Jack London “I wanted movement and not a calm course of existence.

Terah Posted March 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 Week 0, day 1 Quest 1: 3 meals a day, no snacking Very close. I had one snack in the afternoon (chocolate), but I put the rest away and moved the hell on. I did get thoughts like 'I messed up already, just give in', but I remembered: progress doesn't require perfection, so I stayed strong Quest 2: Work on improving my business so I can make more money No time for that today This afternoon the real estate agent showed our house to a young man. And right after that he placed a bid!!!! I'm so happy It could still fall through off course, but I'm hopeful this is it. He didn't bid the asking price, but the minimum we needed, and the real estate agent is going to try to get a higher price from him. So all that cleaning and moving stuff wasn't for nothing We also went to look at a house in the evening. This house was foreclosed by the bank. We didn't knew that when we went there (wasn't on the site), and the house was just sad. Sure it was big and the price is right, but everything showed the people who lived there moved away angry. The house was dirty, and a lot of stuff was just stripped. They took the stove and the fridge, even the bathroom mirror with them. There was a dent in the bathroom door, the height of a man's fist... With some effort and a lot of TLC we could make it beautiful again, I'm sure. But right now this was a very sad house. We're going to check out two more houses this week. I really like both of them. One is a bit above our price range, but I'm hoping our real estate agent can help lower the price. 6 Quote Doodlie for life, Pancake by choice Current Challenge Spoiler Challenge 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 Challenges 2017: 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 Challenges 2018: 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, Challenges 2019: 36, 37, 38, 39, 40 Challenges 2020: 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 Challenges 2023: 46, 47 Link to comment

It is, but it also brings along extra costs, and I don't think we can afford it. Off course, I'll have to make a spreadsheet to crunch the numbers to know for sure Thanks I'm hopeful for the two houses we'll be checking out on Friday. One of them looks like the perfect combination of all the good stuff we've seen in other houses without much of the downsides. The other one looks even more perfect, but we will need to bring the price down by a lot, and I'm not entirely sure that is possible. 1 Quote Doodlie for life, Pancake by choice Current Challenge Spoiler Challenge 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 Challenges 2017: 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 Challenges 2018: 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, Challenges 2019: 36, 37, 38, 39, 40 Challenges 2020: 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 Challenges 2023: 46, 47 Link to comment
