Project 50 #14/50
I’ve had 15+ different cars throughout the years. Some fast, some slow and never have I had more fun on 4 wheels in a comparatively slow little Citroen c4. The limit of grip, chassis rigidity and engine performance is below city speed limits in that…

Project 50 #13/50
Demand greatness of yourself. I was reading another self improvement book, full of useful ideas and knowledge, passages from Socrates and Marcus Aurelius, yet this simple phrase triggered something in me. I’ve noticed that things that truly trigger have some deeper reasoning for why they…

Project 50 #12/50
Jordan B. Peterson has been gaining more and more popularity recently and for good reason. I listened to his 12 rules for life at least 10 times in the last few years (I listen to audio books when I work out and I work out…

Project 50 #11/50
“Easy” cardio day. Arguably, Wednesdays are the easiest day of my week. I simply must do 60 mins of any cardio exercise and I can tick the workout daily task. It’s kind of mind-blowing to say that to me. In my mind, I am still…

Project 50 #10/50
Marcus Aurelius is definitely one of my favourite people of all time. Strangely, many of my favourite people, maybe even friends to some degree, don’t know I exist. They have been dust for longer than I have lived, yet it often feels like I can…

I went on a trip to Kiev when I was about 11. It was with my dancing buddies — believe it or not, I used to be pretty decent at dancing when I was little. A part of this trip was going to the underground…

Project 50 #8/50
Judging (myself, others, actions, situations) is one of my vices. I tend to overanalyse things, break them down into subcomponents and analyse those to understand why certain things happen the way they do and see how little, seemingly insignificant changes can lead us to a…

Project 50 #7/50
I grew up without a father. So naturally I missed out on a lot of things I never even knew about. How to shave properly. How to talk to girls. What to do when life gives you lemons. When to shut the fuck up. I…

Project 50 #6/50
Today was leg day and my previous routine looked like this: After today, it’s gonna look like this: The leg press I was doing just never felt right for me, the ROM just wasn’t there, my back never felt good. Extensions, raises and total abdominal…

Project 50 #5/50
How do you make working out every day is feasible? I really like Huberman’s Fitness Toolkit. I feel it’s the ultimate starter guide for absolute newbies and experienced gym goers alike. In 2 hours, you go from zero to having enough of an understanding what…

Project 50 #4/50
In life, there are few 100% certainties, other than the fact that our lives will end at some point. I feel one more thing is also true — sooner or later, life will force you to become physically active. It may be tomorrow, it may…

Project 50 #3/50
Day 3. Man oh man, I’m feeling it. I am feeling motivated and focused on my goal. Having a daily checklist is really neat, as part of the problem for me usually is getting caught up in the daily grind and forgetting/neglecting my self improvement…
