Welcome my daily pork heart. Every day is a continuous test with no subject. What's your answer? And what's the meaning of it? Peak experience. It's a rare and tense moment of euphoria and self-actualization. It's characterized by a heightened sense of awareness and loss of inhibition and feeling of transcendence of the ego. That's where I'm at right now. And it comes surprisingly in times where you don't feel at your peak.
And when there are perceived voids, in all actuality, it's just the universe making space for what's next for you. If you can hear my background, you can hear my son Chase. Somehow he's up in the morning. It's Tuesday, November 26th, 2024 at 8 54 a.m. Pacific Standard Time. God, season 54. I'm sorry. I haven't seen you in a couple of weeks. I don't know what's been happening. It's the holiday season. We got Thanksgiving in a couple of days.
Hope you are getting ready to eat good or being able to get in that sauna to be able to make room for what's to come next. Not waiting for that New Year's resolution to start what you should have started yesterday. And I'm just the same. And with that, our peak experience, season 54. Let's start. So I'm going to day. I'm heavy on Kenji Kumar. We're going to start it off with squabble up. But I'm heavy on this. And shout out to his love for the beta. What did I read today?
I still haven't found the book that's really catching my eye. But every day I'm still on The Daily Loss by Robert Greene. Today is talking about confirmation bias and always being able to question yourself. Was I physically active today? God, it's so hard to get right back on to your schedule. And was able to yesterday did shoulders and I love shoulders because it's right before you start over the exercise week and it fills out what you how your body's supposed to look. And I love it.
Always joking say that's the easy day. But really it's that that final lap before you start over on your body. In my personal opinion, for me, it's legs and back and by legs, then tries and chest and back and bys and then shoulders. Two times a week doing any of those in that succession. And then on third time we try to get some cardio and then the fourth time try to get some yoga. Just trying to get past the first and second time is hard enough.
What I get from meditations when it is time to pivot, welcome the silence and empty space to be filled with new and fresh ideas. What did I succeed at? Well this week is a wonderful week where I have my boys all Thanksgiving week and just being able to see the whole experience of being together and the weekdays and the quiet moments and the time that we're busy trying to get everything together or we're busy making sure we make the most of the limited time that we have.
It feels good to have this lingering extended time to really be with each other in times of silence and times of boredom, times of just the everydayness. What made me smile? After a good workout where in the rain the boys are being taken care of for a few hours by family and just being able to have a quick pancake breakfast with my spouse. That made me smile. Just reading the paper, she's still kind of working. So yeah, what do I think of my day overall?
Peak experience, full on thoughtfulness, calm. And what grade do I give myself? I'm going with the B+. I know there are still things I could have done to up the ante. I know this is the time where I need to be pushing forward even while taking in what's new and everything. So B+. I hope you all can be aware of those moments and take that peak experience. It usually comes when our backs are against the wall. I'm no different. Anything you want to say, Chase?
No. No. All right, Chase says no. And with that, we'll see.
