The past weeks I’ve been going against my natural clock of waking up early and going to bed early. Instead I’ve stayed up late and woken up a lot later than usual. It’s been good, as I’ve managed to get a lot done in the evenings, but it’s also caused some trouble for me as the evening isn’t my prime time.
It’s hard at times keeping to the optimal internal clock. An it’s hard to know what your internal optimal clock is right now, if it changes at times.
I lean back at the way you do thinks when practicing aikido. Go with the movement. It’s really hard stopping someones fist aiming for your face, especially if they’re bigger than yourself. It’s a lot easier to get out of the way, and directing energy in the direction of said fist.
To be able to identify those fists, you might have to experiment. It might not be as obvious as a fist coming towards you. It might be painful experimenting. I’m shit tired today, having a really hard time to focus my attention. But I know it’s worth it. Because I’m going with the fist.
