Air Alert today was easy. I bet Tuesday will not be.

That is all.

I'mma touch the sky

Another two miles. Chest was harder, abs were easier. Calves didn't hurt until I ran, now they are angry.

There aren't many things easier than grinding when you got that fire.

Squat hops blow.

And make 'em straighten up their act 'cause she know they soft

2 miles.

Really ain't that cold out. Trust me.

P.S. -- Stretch everyday too.

Just stay hungry

My strategy so far this break has been to eat and drink as shittily as possible to make my body feel as shitty as possible so that when I start eating well again I never want to go back.

Well, I don't remember ever feeling this good. I've tried getting drunk twice already this break and I just cannot do it. I think I am officially off the drank.

Air Alert is legitimate. I recommend. My legs won't stop twitching. Plan is to Air Alert on Air Alert Days + dog walkings, and 8/12 minute abs/chest + running on other days, taking Sundays off.

I am 90% getting MTGO and really hope I go infinite off 20 tix.

That is all.

"Maybe you've heard the maxim, “take a tournament one game at a time.” You'll then be told about how you shouldn't think about “X rounds until top 8” or “I just have to win one more game!”

That sounds great in theory. But you know what? That's really, really hard to do.

Your brain will fight you at every juncture to try and make you think about it. You can't help but think about how it's round seven, and you just have to win this one to draw in, or how if you lose this match you're going to be out of top 8 contention.

The trick is not to avoid thinking about it – there's really no way not to – but just not to care.

When I'm doing well at a PTQ and sit down for each round, I let my brain take in the fact that it's X rounds until top 8 or whatever. I let it wash over me like a cool wave, and then it's over. That's it. I breathe out, and it's time to focus on the match at hand.

I have played much, much better since I began to use this technique. I've noticed it both in my play as well as in how I approach the game. I'm not setting myself up for success or failure, it doesn't matter how much effort I've put into this event, and it doesn't matter what beats have been delivered. It's simply time to play some Magic."

"Nowadays I have figured out what is important to emotionally invest yourself into while playing Magic. It is not if you win or lose, but how well you are playing. This is the only thing you can control while playing this game and is the only thing that can help you get better at the game. If you spend time on thinking about how unlucky you are, you will miss important decisions that will help you in the future. It is impossible to play good Magic if you are not making decisions with a clear mind and a healthy attitude."
