Time to get organized and on schedule, Self-Improvement starts now!

So in an effort to get things in my life running efficiently instead of wasting huge amounts of time like I have been, I have decided to make myself a strict schedule to follow daily. I am the type of person who really needs a solid plan to follow otherwise I am very easily distracted. Among the main goals I am trying to accomplish in the next 2 months or so are the following:


- Get in Better shape, lose 40 lbs through the new diet I'm following and workouts (more on this in another post)

- Learn to speak Spanish effectively and be at least conversational in 3 months

- Start walking at least 2 miles per day to imporve health and cardio shape.

- Start Tango dancing classes and get good!

- Start working tirelessly 9-5 each day instead of sparatically like I have been

So with that being said here is my tenitive schedule

7:00 AM Wake Up

7:15 A.M. Meditation for 15 min

7:30 A.M. Take Bill the dog for a walk 30-45 minutes

8:15 A.M. Shower, get ready for the day.

8:30 A.M. Healthy Breakfast according to diet

9:00 A.M. Work, work, work

12:00 P.M. Healthy Lunch

3:00 P.M. Healthy Snack

5:00 P.M. come home from work.

5:30 P.M. Healthy dinner

6:00 P.M. One full hour Language Learning Spanish

7:00 P.M. Clean up, get ready for the night, check e-mail, return phone calls, wite blog posts, read ect.

8:00 P.M. Workout at Golds, Tango Class on Wednesdays,

9:30 P.M. Get home, shower, begin to wind down, take Bill across the street to pee

10:00 P.M. TV time for 1 hour, also internet browsing, research, talking to girls  :) haha

11:00 P.M. Reading or Movie time in bed, Protein Powder, supplements,

11:30 - 12 P.M. Bed

Language Learning Time!!!

Oh ya that's me on the headset, why you ask?

Just got Rosetta Stone Spanish version(Latin America) and I'm pluggin' away at it. I am planning a trip to Buenos Aires in the semi-near future so it's time to get serious about language learning. So far I have seemed to retain a surprising amount of information from my two years of Spanish in high school where my grades in the course fluctuated from a c- to d+. Guess I proved Ms. Smith wrong afterall seeing as I am not actually retarded. Anyways, I'll be posting my progress, hell maybe even an all Spanish post sometime soon, who knows.

Until then,

Suerte

Just remembered to post these pics from our hike about 2 weeks ago. It was a beautiful early autumn day that made for great hike. I snapped a few shots of us as well as a few images that stuck in my head along the way. You can tell it was september as the falls were trickling down and not flowing majestically like you might see in the late spring/early summer. All in all it was a real fun hike and a great way to spend what would have been an otherwise lazy sunday. Although I'm a football fan, I'll take this over watching the Sea Chickens lose :).
