it’s that time of the year that one thinks about the goals\/intentions for year and i am feeling a lot more confident with intentions\/resolutions this coming year. i feel like my success rate for adopting a new habit has gone up by a considerable percentage in the past year. i am guessing probably somewhere in the neighborhood of that 55-70% of my top 5 intention\/goals are being achieved on a timely basis and that it becomes more a part of my daily experience. in the past 6 months, i’ve really nail down a weekly routine that is pretty balance for the mind\/body and soul. it fluctuates a bit from week to week but the trend data is there that i am consistently doing it. Even getting back on the bandwagon after i fall up is much quicker as well. i feel like within a week or so, i am back to the regular routine. I am liking the comfort for routine more as well. when i automatically do these things as part of my daily experience, somehow it frees up my mind and it stresses me less because i am not trying to figure out how to do those things. anyway, here’s some numbers that has been brewing in my mind:<\/p>\n
250 hours of mediation\/180 straight days
\n100 hours of service\/volunteering
\n700 miles of running\/200 miles on biking
\n50% less spending on discretionary
\n20% less computer time – 140 hours monthly
\n84 days of vegetarian meals only
\nComplete 10 books
\nRead 30 mins to uma daily
\n144 in studio yoga classes, 40 at home<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
