How I did it
How to exercise regularly
It took me
3 months
It made me

How to act in a play
It took me
1 year
It made me
exhilarated

How I did it: I took acting classes at a drama studio. There were three levels, each level being 10 weeks, and at the end of each level we did some kind of a performance. Level one was a monologue, level 2 a scene and level 3 was a full fledged play. The first two levels prepared me for the play. It was a nice progression and eased me into the real deal.

8 months
It made me
horrified

How I did it: This is a goal which takes very little effort aside from a little self control and self confidence when it got freaky looking.

90% perspiration 10% inspiration 1 month ago

I finished my create writing workshop a while ago now. It was great, I learned some valuable lessons. The problem now is getting into a writing routine to develop my skills. I should be writing everyday, that’s my goal.

To motivate myself I propose to write and submit a short story to a publication. I’ll keep you posted.

run a marathon (read all 2 entries…)
Sydney 9km Bridge Run 1 month ago

I completed the 9km bridge run today. I’m about 1/4 of the way to running a full marathon.

Once the blisters on my feet swell down I’ll get back into training to build my distance running up to 40km.

My next goal is to complete a 20km – half marathon.

stop procrastinating
Blocked hazardous sites 4 months ago

I have installed the “leechblock” add-on to my Firefox browser to prevent me from accessing certain time wasting sites such as Facebook and Digg. So far its working a treat.
