HEALTH
1.
LOSE
WEIGHT
My weight has been up again. Boohoo! It’s been up to a
maximum limit I had once achieved. Due to an unbalanced lifestyle and some very
infrequent exercise, my BMI is over the limit.
Solutions
1.
From January onwards, substitute lunch with oats
or maybe cornflakes.
2.
Eat less for dinner. Half a serving of rice will
do. Increase intake in vegetables and avoid over eating meats and oily stuff.
3.
Run daily after work. Target to run at least 3
km daily. A 10km run per weekend is mandatory.
4.
Morning and night work outs. Do the pumps,
pushups and crunches. Start from 20 each, increasing 10 fold each day. Maximum
of 50 pumps and pushups per round. Wake up at 6am during weekdays so that you
complete your workout cycle in time before work.
Projection of Results
Target to lose at least 5kg before Chinese New Year. That
would be around 1kg per week. Around 1500cal a day.
Target to lose a cumulative 10kg by end of February.
Reward
RM100 to be credited into a new account, dubbed the “posh
and fancy” account. This means I get to spend the money I’ve earned as a reward
on luxury items without feeling bad of overspending.
Stakes and Punishment
Post a status on facebook asking for anyone to ask ANY
question (limit 3), and to answer it honestly as a status. And no dinner for a week.
2.
6
PACKS
Wanting to have 6 packs and a fit body has always been
badgering and appearing on my resolutions year after year. Sure there were
times that I was almost there. But most of the time, nope. It does not even
deserve to have it posted.
Solutions
1.
Keep up with the crunches, pushups and pumps as
per mentioned. But first you gotta find the full work out schedule of it
2.
If by May 2014 there are no feasible results,
then you would have to join gym. Say bye bye to your money
Projected Results
Visible results in weight loss and muscle gain. All has to
done by December 2014.
Reward
RM300 into the “posh and fancy” account. And go ahead to
post your well built body in facebook and instagram.
Stakes and Punishment
Post your flabby body on to facebook with your face. You’ve
failed and you deserved to be shamed.
3.
SLEEP
Get 6 hours max on weekdays. Up to 7 hours are allowable on
weekends. Try to not get a siesta for more than 25 times a year. Should you get
a siesta, keep it not more than 1 and a half hour. Could be managed and charged
under normal sleep under negotiable circumstances.
Reward
An extra 30 minutes of movie or games. Preferably movies
Stakes and Punishment
Do an extra 100 hand pumps and 50 push ups.
LEARNING AND
KNOWLEDGE ENHANCEMENT

LANGUAGE (I)

2.
READING
Preferably a wide array of genres. But it must include
“Health”, “Self Improvement” daily. A chapter each will suffice. Then you’re
free to read whatever you like.
Solutions:
1.
Read at least 30 pages of reading material
daily. You can include any online articles (excluding 9gag)
2.
At least something on health and self
improvement or something that is new and something to capture in L.I.F.E
Projected Results
1200 pages read for the year 2014. In terms of books, 30 of
them.
Reward
Buy a book of your liking at any price. You love books more than your money. No big deal right?
Stakes and Punishment
Don't like reading your books? Give 5 of them away to someone.
3.
MUSIC
Practice at least 1 hour weekly. That includes learning a
new song. No goals are set as learning a song can be too complicated beyond
words for me.
Review this when you have the chance to slot in guitar.
4.
SPIRITUAL
Pick up meditation and reiterate your goals and targets.
INTERPERSONAL AND
SOCIAL
Self Improvement
1.
Speak your mind, but make sure you speak after
thinking. Voice out your thoughts more often. Don’t be a Yes-man. Be brave and have more courage.
2.
Think creatively and out of the box more often.
Get ideas influx from the net and through reading. Make your thinking and ideas
exciting and mind blowing.
As a son, family
member and a relative
1.
Communicate more with family. I notice I spend a
lot of time in my room and laptop. Although I have been improving since end of
last year but I want to improve further. Make an effort to hold conversations
with aunts, uncles and cousins.
2.
Phone back home more often (weekly) to talk with
grandparents. I seldom do that. Yeah Grandpa and Grandma deserve more
attention from me.
3.
Visit KL grandparents more often. Once every 3
weeks or once every 2 weeks.
4.
Phone back home more often to talk with parents
(weekly). Will try to Skype weekly. Time to learn from my brother.

COMPUTER GAMES
I think I have cut down a lot of my gaming time these days.
But it would be better if I can monitor myself and control myself even more.

hours, but equally spread out, especially during the weekends.
