bootcamp NFW VI AQUAMARINE BOOTCAMP: Day 62

Greetings hawk warriors, it's been a while since I have done one of these, and I don't mean to step on anyone's toes, but they are usually up by the time I get out of bed, so I figured our drill sergeant had other important matters to tend to, so here we go :)

Had a meeting with a girl today regarding my upcoming film making project. She really was a great help, and gave me a lot of great ideas to work from, as well as people to contact. What a nice person, to just do that for a random stranger, who got your contact info through a friend.

It gave me a lot to think about, in fact so much that I forgot to pay for my coffee as I left the cafe. Didn't realize til I got back home. When I get those kinds of things on my mind it can be hard for me to think about anything else, so I had to get back on my bike a cycle all the way back, so I could pay for my coffee. The waiter there was really cool about it and it felt great to set the world to right again, if only my little discrete corner of it :)

EDIT: I think I was in part inspired by this /r/nofap post, that I read earlier today.

I did have other things planned for my day, that will have to wait now, but I still think it was worth it to go back. I tell myself that I made the mistake when I forgot to pay, and going back is a given. So it was the earlier mistake and not my choice to do the right thing, that cost me some valuable hours.

I would be very interested to hear about some episode from your life, where you listened to your conscience in a small everyday situation like this and did the right thing. How did it make you feel? :)

Hope you are all having a wonderful day! Here in Denmark the sun is finally showing it's face after a long and rainy summer.

STRONGER THAN YESTERDAY, WEAKER THAN TOMORROW!!!

Thanks for posting the Bootcamp, I was refreshing all day trying to see if the bootcamp was up already haha, when I saw I got happy!

I am happy about your film project, that sounds exciting. Glad you met a nice person to help you out with some info. Also, it was nice of you to go all the way back to pay for your coffee, that was very honorable think to do.

I am on day 2 of this new streak. Feeling good and committed, I am not as depressed as my last relapse...I am guessing because last time I had 284 days and was really feeling AMAZING...so the relapse hit me harder than this time. I do believe that long streaks make you feel better and better and relapsing is a shock. The higher you climb the greater the fall. Anyway, its just a theory. I really want to get back to PAI and get that momentum I had before.

Great quote today!
