Motto: All the wealth in the world have no worth to you, if you are not healthy.
(Financial freedom wizards manual)
Weight: 80 kg (5 kg less than 30 days before - 85 kg) at 1.80 m (5'9'')
Body fat: 20% (10% less than 30 days before - 30%)
My training is a complete one, on three directions of action:
1. Body
- Yoga techniques (postures, breathing and meditation) 26 sessions
- Freeletics - some kind of high intensity athletic training 12 sessions
- Running - 13 sessions
- Wing Chun Kung Fu - 13 sessions
- Freerunning / Parkour - no training this month
2. Diet
- A 70% plant based diet (with a twist of 70% alkaline food daily), no chemicals, less sugar, better hydration (300 ml water every 3 hours when possible) - I achieve this 80% of the time, i would say.
- One day a week - 24 hour fasting - did it 4 times in June
3. Mind
- Mindfulness techniques aka meditation: 26 times
- Memory training techniques: 26 sessions
- Brain boosting supplements - For the first month i tried: Multivitamin, vitamin C slow release, vitamin D, Zinc, Chromium, Omega 3-6-9 and my herbal remedies (but for the herbal treatments i did it completely only 75% of the time). I plan for July to add bee pollen, ginseng and probably from August i will also buy some Gotu Kola from Amazon.
This first month was a success, as i lost some of the weight achieved during my last holiday and i am slowly improving my physical strength and stamina. As for the month number two, i am planning in increasing my yoga practice by 20%, running and high intensity training once every two days, i will increase the martial art minimal practice to every day from every two days and i will aim for at least two parkour based trainings this month. Meditation will be done in the same way, but i will try to decrease distraction and increase focus.
I will follow up soon with the economical monthly report.

FIRE first aid or as i said FIRE crash course 1.0.1.
Ok. New post coming. But before i start i want to point to some very pertinent blog post of FI fighter. I just find it interesting and it is worth to take a peek on it. Another good post i found is about th Roseto effect - how to live longer, better and healthier. It is a simple solution, but a very effective one.
Now back to my story. One friend was asking me how can he learn to do what i do? As a close friend he could see the changes on my personal finance and net worth, and as we have at least 20 years from the time we first meet, he realized that i did in this year more than i did in the previous 36 of my life.
But here come with the catch. How can i learn somebody about FIRE in only 2 hours if i just start with the basics after 18 months of study of this phenomenon.
So i made a plan. Emailing books to read on the subject, 1 per week. Record every expense for 3 months on a notebook named with the fancy name of FIRE ESCAPE (i must to admit that i was inspired by Huw with this one). Categorize them after every month. Learn about your money before you start saving. Start budgeting expenses and food week by week, Stick with that amount. Download a running app. I use Runkeeper or Freeletics. A bit of physical preparation. Depending on the person i would recommend some supplements. At least when you start running again after 20 years. For him it was Multivitamins, Multiminerals, Magnesium, Fish oil to burn the extra fat, Melatonin to adapt faster to the new situation and some other things, Joints stuff - the one with condroitin. Make a blog. Put every link i provide on your blogroll. I give him most of the blogs i know. Set up to show the last post. Read them regularly. Now i have 2 Excel spreadsheet that i use. One to record the plan. With 4 pages. Risk. Safe. Dreams. Costs and strategy. Another one is using different pages, one for every income sources like dividends, interests, full time work, royalties, profit, capital gained and rental. Set up accounts. Start small and get bigger at some pre-set periods of time. He started with 8% for risk investment, 4% for safest ones and 4% for achieving childhood dreams (i used this as a helping hand as it is known that achieving childhood dreams can have as a result a dramatically improvement of your motivation. I have the full research on one of my journals,
Setting up the accounts. I went for one P2P account, one property crowdfunding, one for buying shares. He agreed to make a new bank account for this with TSB for the 5% interest, where he will save first a buffer cash sum, ideally 6 months expenses. Then we will set up direct debits for the investments options mentioned before, going with the option pay yourself first, worry about an eventual shortcoming later. As in automatically pay your rent, bills, transport (train pass) and savings first after you are getting paid your wages and make a budget for the remaining amount for food and any other expenses. Took us 3 hours at first and an additional one later instead of 2 planned, but we did it.
What would you do different? I am listening.
P.S. The blog just reach the 1000 readers bar, it is time to celebrate!
