1.) Being that I am in the military and our physical fitness is a contengency of our employment I think that I would have to rate myself at an 8. I am not a 10 because I feel that there is always room to improve and the fitness program that I am in facilitates for improvement and advancemen. My spiritual wellbeing I am embarassed to say is probably like a 3 or 4. I don't dedicate nearly enough time in my life and I let other things take priority. I am hoping that I can change this. My psychological well-being I think is the happy medium between the other two categories. I think that I am not as strong mentally as I am physically however, I know I am stronger mentally than I am spiritually so I would rate that at probably a easy 6.
2. My goal for my physical health is to be able to run a marathon by the end of the year. I think that at the rate I train this is an easily attainable goal. Spiritually I am trying to commit to doing meditation and yoga at least 3 times a week. I have been keeping a log and trying to accomplish this without making excuses or prioritizing other things above it. Mentally this class is actually my goal. I have been working a lot and feel myself fallinig behind, this is not what I want so I certainly want to try and change while we are still at the beginning of the class.
3. I have made a calender to facilitate all three of the goals. I think that my biggest problem is time management I consistantly put my job over all other priorities in my life despite how important the work may be. I don't know why I feel like I always have to be working but I do. I am using the calender as a visual reminder that I need to make time in my life for other things rather than realize it at the last moment.
4.) As "zen" as I claim to be I actually found the excercise really annoying because I thought that it was honestly a waste of my time. I know that sounds really jaded but at the rate that I move the mere thought of forcing myself to sit and "relax" for 19 minutes was horrible. I think that maybe though that was a good thing because I was forced to "chill out" I am going to try and do the excercise again throughout the class and see if I can build a tolerance to it.
