I started my training on Jan 15 or somehwere around that. I met with an accident soon which hurt my shinbone badly, after taking rest for 15-18 days I started again and then I fell sick. I have allergy problem, read my earlier posts on this. This time it took 30 days to recover, hence these months from Janauary to March of 2010 were a mix of training, accident,rest, training, sickness and training. I am summing up here what I felt and learned during whatever small amount of training I was able to do.
Feb 22nd: Subconcious mind has started working. I can feel it. Scientifically, I can not give you any explanation and there is no way I can explain it using logic or reasoning. You just have to feel it when it happens. I felt it 2 times everyday in different situations and different environments. I was sick and was not practicing but kept on reading Martial-Arts books and watching movies/videos.
Feb 23: Brain has started to feel the wastage of time. It is not that I am wasting time but it is actually that mind has started to become aware of it and is giving me signals on where I spent last hour, it is giving me signals on where my energy is directed and where I am wasting my efforts. Throat infection is beginning to disappear
Feb 25th, 2010: If I sleep at 10 PM then I can’t sleep beyond 6 AM.
Earlier: Used to sleep at least 8 to 8.5 hours and still could not get up at 6. Could never get sleep at 10 pm. Sickness reduced, throat infection is also gone after medication.
trying to quit company made butter. Replacing it with ghee.
Quit Cheese (I was eating cheese from last 2 years and it was not making any difference anyway)
Quit Egg Yolk. Eating boiled eggs without yellow part. Already quit non-vegeterian food before training started (in search of finding a meaning of my life)
Started eating bananas without milk. Digestion is not giving any stomach pains from constipation, it seems fine.
During morning practice of thigh attacks, found two natural stances of mine for fighting. Still did not find the footwork for these stances, only hand/arms position. Next week showed it to Pavan and he told me it was really a wrong way to keep your stance. Palm-side attack coming naturally as leopard-paw. Later changed it to a complete punch but attacking using side of plan rather then knuckles. Felt good.
