  Help I am stuck for blog ideas, I love writing and love writing for my blog but some days I just have no ideas for blog content. I get ready to write for my blog but nothing happens. I know what I want my blog to be like but i just get stuck for new ideas or ways of writing about a subject. Now that I am stuck for blog ideas and topics I am breaking the writers block by writing about how I stuck for blog ideas. In a hope that while I am writing about how I am stuck with ideas. In writing about being stuck I can become unstuck and come up with some more blog ideas for my blog. This all makes sense if you get stuck with nothing to write on your blog but want your readers to have somthing new to look at. So even if I dont have any ideas for blog content , I am going to write content none the less. Think to come up with new blog ideas, and become unstuck for somthing new to say on my blog, I am going to inlist help or ideas from other posts in my blog. I have written on this blog bef...

There was a way to improve your eye contact by practicing it in a mirror, spend 30 mins each day looking at your self in the mirror eye to eye, or look in one eye for a few mins then the other. Practice moving eye brows up and down and different smiles. Practice an angry face, happy face and different expressions in front of the mirror. Ive been spending some time becoming accustom to what people see in my face when i express different thoughts and im happy with what i see , so i dont feel any doubt when i look and talk face to face with other people. Since ive been practicing getting lost in what i see in the mirror , ive also started to enjoy just watching peoples facial expressions as they talk , ive become a better listner by being able to just be mesmerised by their eye contact and facial expersions. Its funny being more face to face with people, they are also picking up on more subtle cues that i am sending out like when i have a little wry smile. Think looking in ...

New Start to the year, blogging and ideas. OK so once again i feel like im starting from afresh, semms just as i get to a place i want to be i look up and my goals are further away. All i can say is im not happy the fact i have to give up so much of my time for work, i wish i could just work for 10 hours a week and that would be enough, 5 days a week , 8 hours a day and all the adtional time thinking about and preparing for work, it seems like the whole thing is just about the work. Too much time is work related, and its work that i neither care about or really want to do , it makes me money. That is it, i do it because it makes money. and not a huge amount either, i do it because it is regular and if i work x ammount of time i will recive y amount of money. Its stable and repetitive and it makes money and will continue to make me money everytime i go and do it. But at the same time i loose a little bit of myself each time i go, every time i clock in i sit down and the life drains ou...

Think it should be called the 3 P's Paleo food, Primal thought and Parkour movement. Just an idea of how these 3 areas could include better health. Paleo food s, keeping things natural and original . meat vegtables and fruits and water. Keeping foods simple and fresh and of high quality Primal thought , this is keeping life simple being happy with what one has got, not wasting money on junk getting out of the consumer mentality, being frivolous and resourceful. Keeping in mind the bigger picture and nature. Getting out and about, meeting new people. Having fun and also getting good quality rest. Understanding what the dangers are in life. Parkour , this is a movement art that defines the world as your play ground, using what is around you to train. Climbing , pulling jumping running ducking and weaving through the obstacles of the urban jungle. Parkour is not about treadmills and weight machines, but about using your own judgement to jump gaps climb objects and find new paths...

Decided to start doing some primal fitness this evening .  I could squeeze 4 of the five movements. Thinking I would be at the level 4 already I thought as a warm up I would just do a set of the lowest foundation exersises, so with arrogance I got in to the starting position and to my disbelief o struggled to finish the full set. The aim is to master each movement before moving on. I am still on the basic set, my pressups felt flimsy. My squatting was awkward and my back and legs creaked. In the half plank position I trembled all over and felt loose after 60 seconds. Don't be fooled by all these fancy movements, get the basics down first, tomorow is going to be another play day as bodyweight goes, more focus on doing each rep well with good motivation, taking time to build the power in to each movement. Although number of reps is important , as I am at a foundation level, I thinly that its more important to learn each position well. Grease the groove, do allot of sets of low reps...

This my first of many bloggs using my phone for my blogging , being the first its a good way to keep the blog updated without having to air at my desk. As I go in to my second week of eating like the primal man I've noticed a few things , I really enjoy the clarity of mind at my work. I absolutely destroyed my work today. I can't wait to see the stats tomorow . I looked at my billing history also i took 70 k last year in payments.  What do I got to show for it not much there is no commision. Going Grok , even though there has been some bog temptations today , cheap cookies at work and cheap chocolate I resisted pretty good. Just working and smacking on my salad at lunch. Still there were a few things I could have done without , had allot of cheese and cream sauce on my veg and after half a bar of dark chocolate after eating that I passed out for about 2 hours. After that I haven't really had the motivation to do much with the last 3 hours tonight. I'm getting pumped alr...

First impression Despite what you may read as allot of negative and unwanted results from this style of eating below, I believe that what I have felt this week has been a part of the process of coming of the coffee and junk and sugars, I've felt bad but its felt like a part of the process. As I look on the web of peoples results and stories I just think that the first week and possibly week 2 are just the shock to the system, I'm still going to give this way of living a long enough time to see if this is going to work for me. I feel slimmer although I've no way of weighing myself, I'm not doing this for how much I weigh, I don’t care, its more about body composition, i.e. how lean I am and how functional I am on my own 2 feet, how heavy I am is not the goal, I want to bring my fat ratio down I want to become more productive and motivated in my mind. But on the whole taking the rough with the smooth, it’s been an enjoyable week and some great meals and lessons alon...

Going Caveman Blueprint Paleo for 30 Days Paleo diet eating like a caveman, I've ordered a book and from what I’ve seen and read. You eat your meat and you eat your fruits and veg. What you don’t eat is stuff that was not around millions of years ago. You don’t eat bread you don’t eat pasta, or potatoes. I've been eating allot of bread recently as I've been trying to bake it and work out how to make the perfect loaf of bread. I've also noticed that I'm not as vibrant and active as I have been in the past few months. Not sure if these are linked or might just be I'm drinking too much coffee now that there is a free vending machine at work. I have experimented with raw foods and found great success with those and also juicing and making smoothie’s I still stick to a mainly junk free and vegan diet , but this makes more sense to me. Cut out the stodgy the pasta and the sugar and caffeine and just live like the caveman the animal that man is. Being grain fed almost ...

Paying to have time off work, you know that work is wrong when it cost money not to do , free time cost me £258 for 5 additional days off work. To get away you have to pay , don't think that working 40 hours a week is enough. You want to see something other than a computer, I want to see your money. You want freedom you have to pay of it.  One day I will be financially secure to not have to work all the time, work any place any time and live off my own results. I want my freedom, I want my own time table I want to see. Even if it cost's me money, I will pay money to have more free time. Just a bitch for the boss's dollar at the moment , every day working on a way to break out of the rat race.

Day 9 Monday 9am I was absolutely tired and worn out, I had spent all Sunday training parkour and running doing body weight exercise, plus the outside air, by the time I went to bed I slept when the alarm went off at 5am I heard it but I was worn out and my body was aching, felt more beneficial to sleep the extra 4 hours. This experiment on the few days where I have got up around the 5am mark has really run me in to the ground. Still try and get up tomorrow, I really felt better for the extra sleep, my arms and back of shoulders were really aching today. Day 10 Tuesday 5.30am Got up at early today, put on the trainers and got out the house, went for a jog. Had a bit of a run then some walking, felt really great jogging at that time , there was a few cars about and people walking around must of thought he’s serious. The air was nice and clean and it really blew the cobwebs out of the system, took a while to get used to. The iPod headphones kept falling out of my ears while I was jogging...

Day 6 waking up at 5am Starting to wake up before the alarm goes off, this is a sign that my body clock is starting to adjust to the new wake up time of 5am, By 10 or 11 Pm this is the time that I need to go to sleep. How does this make me more successful, I supposed I can spend? This morning did not help as its been raining hard the sky outside is dark and black, Today the tv went on for some sound , and the computer came on for some entertainment, there is live channels on tv and its weird watching the same people who are on at this time of day. I am tired, but I'm not going to sleep this one today.  Six days I've been getting up really early and all its been so far is just a new experience, I think at the end of this I would have gained the skill of being to get out of bed even when I feel tired and my mind tells me not to. Also struggling of things to do but I struggle when things to do anyway I think just having to get up early rubs this in my face a little more. Because n...

I am Trying to get up at 5am , day 5 Woke up and got up at 5.30am, once again i had pressed snooze with out knowing three times. So got up at 5.30, which is still good going and allot earlier than usual. Very tired last night I went to bed at 1am , so only 4 hours sleep. I had breakfast and checked on all the usual sites, made a drink. By 6.15am I was running out of things to do and motivation, thought I may as well chill for a bit, fell asleep. Not at work till 11.30am today, so plenty of time woke back up at 9am. Not sure, this must be the 5 day hump. Day 5 being the day when all the initial, hype and motivation has worn off and it gets down to just doing it. Think this is where i'm at, I've done this by the book now i'm starting to feel it catching up with me. Need to change some things up if i'm going do this , just keep working on this 25 days to go.

Rising from Sleep, awakening early day 4 I am glad that I won an I-Pod Shuffle , the new Skinny 1 that looks like a memory stick while I was on my holiday. This morning doing a little bit of dancing about to wake up. Woop jiggle jiggle, wake up! Seems to be working, I pressed the snooze button twice, got up at 5.20am. The two hits on the snooze button were completely unconscious, its only at about 5.18 I caught myself and just got up. I forgot how nice it is just to have some music playing, it's almost time as well for the sunrise to happen as well. Wish my house was empty, even though I am up, there is things that would be easier to do like the cleaning if there wasn't people asleep all over the place. After this weekend, still getting up at 5am, I feel like im learning about how to manage tirdness, at the end of the day my energy is still high even at about 12am. Like I thought it would be a challenge, im learning to understand how to cope with tirdness through out the day. A...

I really enjoyed yesterday, it was like my own personal secret getting up early and working my day with the additional 2 hours at the beginning. As I am now up at its 5.20am something I read yesterday where, waking early seems to be just like shifting time zone is starting to feel like the case. I am having difficulty writing this blog right now I’m still half not with it. With the alarm going off at 5am the last two days it has caught me right in the middle of a vivid dream. Both times I have been in the dream stage at the time. Which is good because both days my dreams were almost like nightmares, so its good that they got interrupted. And I've had a chance to see what is running through my mind, at these points of my day. I would have usually had a dream gone back in to deep sleep then had another then woke up. But getting up at 5am its stopped those, too much time dreaming about these weird situations and worries, just put a stop too that altogether. Think I need to look in to ...

How to wake up at 5am, for the next 30 days. So after yesterdays wake up time of the unusual early time of 7am and reading and writing about getting up early benefits over the course of that day it manifested in to the goal of waking up at 5am for the next 30 days. I've been struggling to get up early for many years always thinking of ways of doing it, so instead of trying to get up an extra 20 mins early or 30 mins , lets just completely burry this old habit buy getting up at 5am , this is two and a half hours early for me. Like the cold showers im sure this is going to feel harsh for the first few weeks, but then once ive got over the initial shock they will become a new experience and insight for my character. I nearly slipped up on the first day, I jumped out of bed at 5am, then stood and thought il just lay down for 30mins and decide what im going to do with this time. I also thought i better set my alarm for 30mins as well, mmmm sounds like someone is trying to get back to be...

Reasons and Health Benefits for getting up early in the morning So my next big challenge in life is to overcome my need to spend all day asleepand day dreaming, as much as i love a good snooze its almost a guilty pleasure that i love and hate at the same time, true its very comfortable laying arround for 2 or 3 hours snoozing and daydreaming, but at the same time i also miss out on those 2 or 3 hours a day activly working on my life. If i just had more time in the week then i would be able to do more with myself, the main part of my snooze thoughts is thinking and brainstorming ideas, but as im half asleep these strokes of insight and genius are soon forgotten, it would be better to just get up and write these ideas on some paper, and do a quick 20 minute's of brainstorming and mind-mapping. Ive got lots i want to do and im sleeping through my life, missing the point and the action by laying in the dreams and thoughts of my own mind. Motivation to get up early, so I've made thi...

Leap of Faith in to the Unkown Web Changing Servers and domains changes everything. This leap of faith applies to the change of BeWiseMonkey.Com changing its server on the web, the site was getting good quality hits everyday , up to 1000 hits a day and has all the promise of growing to be a nice popular site, for all those people who like watching funny monkeys, checking some nice girl pictures and reading some random articles. Unfortunatly the site was on Wordpress.com which has a very little tolerance for advertising. Affiliate links and adverts are not allowed on Wordpress and so i was risking the site by having it on there. Not that i could have just taken ads off the site, but i want to be able to advertise on my site and i dont want all my articles to be deleted. So the choice was to take a leap of faith and move away from Wordpress.com and hoste privatly but still using Wordpress.org to manage site contents. Having used the wordpress content and system i am happy with it and it ...
