"I bow to have a generous mind, even if I don't have enough for myself."

I spoke about small wins adding up yesterday. Well, small losses add up too. Today was just filled with curve balls.


I forgot to restock on my milk (which turned out to be a crucial ingredient for my morning smoothie) so I had to substitute it with the water. Not a big deal.

I planned on restocking on my pants, which happened to be all out of stock due to a sale. No problem.

I then tried to fix my earbuds, but the store had a wait time of 30 minutes. I'll do it another time.

The restaurant my girlfriend and I wanted to go was closed. We'll walk around more and find another place to eat.


I kept a positive mindset throughout the entire day, which kept me sane, even though life was constantly placing obstacles in front of me. I did not let the situation dictate my mood, and just tried to find the best way to navigate in the moment.


On a positive note, I surpassed my personal record in bench pressing. I got to spend quality time with my girlfriend under the beautiful weather. I set things in motion for the renovation.
