Health and money

This is mostly a personal post, as i will add some new data to my monthly report. I am talking about:
Weight: 85 kg (187 pounds) at 1.80 m (5'9'')
Body fat: 30%

As i hit this historical quote of 30%, i decided that is time to stop fooling around and to begin training. I just made a progressive one year plan, and i hope the see notable improvements from one month to another. At the end of the day, make no sense to retire early if you are not healthy enough to enjoy it, right?

My training is a complete one, on three directions of action:

1. Body
- Yoga techniques (postures, breathing and meditation)
- Freeletics - some kind of high intensity athletic training
- Running
- Martial art practice (i choose Wing Chun Kung Fu for the conditioning effect of all joints and increased burst speed and stamina)
- Freerunning / Parkour only occasionally when it is possible

2. Diet
- A 70% plant based diet (with a twist of 70% alkaline food daily), no chemicals, less sugar, better hydration (300ml water every 3 hours when possible)
- One day a week - 24 hour fasting (the latest researches found a lot of benefits related to this, i will not write about, they are one "google search" away from you)

3. Mind
- Mindfulness techniques aka meditation (seems to be a trend now, everybody is doing some form of meditation)
- Memory training techniques (it is a lot to talk about this, i am thinking to write a book about, huh!)
- Brain boosting supplements - Magnesium, herbal remedies, Ginseng, bee pollen, Omega 3,6,9 stuff.

Basically this is the plan for first month, i will add or subtract depending on what i would need at the moment.

Emotion in motion

I have a very interesting dilemma between the choice of doing what i would really like, but no money involved, and doing what i need to do, in order to boost my income a bit more. The problem is that my time is limited, and mixing those two seems to not be a good idea. Now, what if a part of me will slowly die because i choose the material way, am i being a bit too melodramatic or i can call myself focused and driven by my far fetched goal.

I will see what happen when i will do my monthly report, i cannot have a proper opinion yet.

How do you combine these two, and where do you find all that patience? I really, really like to know.
