Getting There & Destiny No.

It's definitely a better day today, and AW is sounding a little brighter.

I was feeling pretty crappy yesterday, as I've picked up a bad head cold from the weekend. I still went to work and took a couple of panadol (which I rarely like to do). By the time I got there I wasn't too bad, just feeling a little weak and very sniffly. I had to do my pre-enlistment fitness test last night, as it needs to be done within 4 weeks of going to Kapooka. It was a bit hard going because I was under the weather, but I made it through. I didn't want to have to do it again. The most push-ups I can do in one go is 27, so I have a goal in the next 6 months to improve on this number. Now mind you, I do them properly! I hate skimming on correct form and will not compromise this to get my numbers up. I'm hoping with my crossfit training, I can improve on this number. For some reason, out of all the different exercises, it is difficult for me to make any strength gains with chest exercises, and especially push-ups. Mind you, I have definitely increased the number of reps - it's just so slowwww.

I'm not 100%, but I'm feeling okay. The mucous tells me I have an infection; I have a slight cough, and my throat is a little gravelly, but I've decided I'm still going to Crossfit tonight. I'd already booked it in advance and don't want to put it off another day.

Okay... here's my Destiny No.7...the path we must walk, what you need to accomplish, what you really are here to achieve. Name changes can change our destiny if we choose...

"The destiny of this number is to be the teachers of ethics. You are physically able to separate the true from the false and discover the mysteries of the world. Your destiny is to use your mind and avenues to do this would be philosophy, science, religion and the metaphysical world. You are often regarded as strange and difficult to follow but these same critics would come to you for guidance and direction.

You will eventually become an inspiration and a teacher for the world. You will need lots of time alone, to think, meditate and to pray. Your strength will be found in these times alone, as you like your own company. 7 people were often, in past lives, placed in monasteries or temples, because of their tremendous mental powers. Develop your mental powers and the world will benefit.

You are the investigator, you like to delve and ask questions on everything you are involved in. You will learn to live by your soul's own grace and not be dependent on others for support. Even amongst crowds of people you will feel alone and untouched. You will never be able to take the easy way out of life and when life gets difficult, which it will, always keep your emotions in control as this is a vulnerable area for you. Many people will need you for counselling and your emotions will be tested, so try to remain positive. You may be out of the common class, but you will be loved and respected for what you have attained and know. Travel is in your blood. Mixed with the thinkers of the world, such as scientists, investigatiors, chemists and people with analytical minds - also surgeons and laywers. Make your home selective in appearance and, for guests, make it warm and helpful to all who seek knowledge. Try to bring science and occult principles of knowledge to bear upon human experience."

Mental powers is definitely something I haven't taken the time to improve upon. As I begin again my martial arts training, I think this part will come along, as I used to spend quite a bit of time in meditation when training. So I look forward to spending a bit more time improving upon this. It's amazing how through just a little regular meditation, it can improve your focus.

Have a great day! :-)
