LaufLog_5k_W03

Schlau gemacht


ist der Trainingsplan von Garmin. Drei bis vier Trainingseinheiten die Woche heisst es da, davon sind jedoch mindestens drei jede Woche Schlüsseleinheiten. Also zwei Mal Intervalle und einmal ein längeres Dauerläufchen. Dann steht da noch, quasi im "Kleingedruckten" je ein lockerer Regenerationslauf und zusätzlich optional einmal die Woche Gymnastik.

Diese Woche habe ich es bei drei Einheiten belassen. Nächstes Woche müsste ich -wenn ich konsequent bin- wieder vier Einheiten machen. Da bin ich selbst gespannt. Diese Woche war ich nach der Dienstagseinheit (progressiver Dauerlauf) so bedient, dass ich mich den ganzen Abend kaum noch bewegen konnte. Irgendwie hatte ich mir eingebildet, es wäre eine gute Idee vor dem Laufen noch schnell etwas zu essen.

In Zukunft versuche ich wieder schlauer zu sein, als der Trainingsplan und nicht nur allein mit den Beinen, sondern auch mit dem Kopf zu trainieren.

If It Helps Someone, It's Valuable

The World Is Full Of Problems  This is good news. Actually it is great news. Problems are opportunities for growth - if you are able to find -and successfully apply- the solution to a problem that will help someone in any way, you will inevitably create value. If you can find a solution to a big problem (e.g. cure for cancer) you will create an immense value. If you can find a solution to a not so gargantuan, but widespread problem, you will have created tremendous value. But even if you find a solution to a small problem that will benefit a few people, you might still have the benefit of being able to learn something valuable that you can apply later in the solution of greater problems. Don't let yourself be discouraged by the (lack of) magnitude of problems: keep your eyes open and help people even if they do not approach you proactively - this will invite good things to happen to you in the long run. However not everybody in the workforce seems to have the proclivity to solve pr...

The Importance of Role Models

Strategic Considerations To me it has always been of paramount importance to have a vision of my model identity. In order to develop towards that ideal my role models would help me strengthen that vision. One effective strategy to find fitting role models is to pick the right environment. Certain organizations will promote specific types of personalities over others. For example in the military there is a tendency to recruit engaging, clearly structured people who have a natural preference to take decisions and action in the face of danger, i.e. under pressure. Thus firm leadership is a skill that is highly valued in military organizations. Other organizations might promote creativity, diversity, individualism and so on. Ask yourself which values you regard as the most precious and then look out for organizations whose values might match best. How To Be A Role Model The good news: setting the bar for being a role model will entirely be up to you. It is your own mind first that you need...

Happiness And Anxiety

Just A Feeling Despite all the drawbacks caused by the pandemic I have to admit that ever since the kids were born I have been feeling more happy in general. To set the stakes even higher, I have already been pretty damned happy ever since I met my wife several years earlier. Maybe it is because the kids fill me with hope that all is good and is steadily improving. Also they give a whole new purpose to everything in my life. I have only really had a few significant stretches where I felt so beaten down or lethargic, that I had issues to motivate myself. There were only three significant times I was struggling with my decisions and had serious doubts that I made the right choices.  Freaking Out In The Barracks The first time was in 1998, when I signed a contract as a contract soldier for 12 years. During my first couple of days with the military the magnitude of my decision sank with the utmost brutality. It totally freaked me out. I spent the first night in some spartan barracks in...
