Very Productive Day

I think the biggest thing that being on black belt cycle has taught me is to schedule and budget my time. What is most important in the moment vs what can wait, and that getting ahead really really helps. "Time is the most valuable coin in your life. You and you alone will determine how that coin will be spent." - Carl Sandburg. Today was very productive, I got to count some stuff for cycle from my PE conditioning today which was nice. Then, I came home and ran 3 miles and got all my requirements done today. Have a great rest of the week everyone! ~ Peyton
