although I miss the fitness one.
You mean the one where I wanted to be done with calisthenics before the saloon opens but which quickly devolved to "let's go outside before the saloon opens"? And then I lost my streak when I went to Berlin and got sick afterwards?
Funnily, I am sick again but when I'm no longer sick, I want to do Taekwondo. I did some martial arts in the past but I never sticked to them. But this time is going to be different!

Well, I wasn’t going to bring up the details.
And Berlin does that…. I once lost 3-days in Kreuzberg and had one hell of a hangover at the end of it. I blame the kebabs.
Why don’t you see if there is a beginners / tasters course for a few weeks at a local dojo? Then the challenge is just to complete the course (initially obviously).

lol, yeah, the kebabs are out to get you there

There is but I'm not sure if it's a course. They have dedicated times for beginners though. I guess it's just about showing up consistently initially. I think if I show up at least twice per week, it's good. I still want to have time for other sports like swimming or bouldering :)
And I want to try to keep this up at least for 6 weeks. After 6 weeks, I should be hooked and don't want to stop anymore anyway. But I think the best approach is just to say "I will go at least one more time" :)
Btw, I really like this approach of giving me options but every option is actually basically the same thing lol

Options can be counterproductive to the human mind though…
I think make you target for time - 2x per week for 6-weeks say.
But as with anything we should look to the old school values encapsulated by BTC. Slow and consistent ahead of fast and flashy fiat BS.

one thing at a time.
You mean things like being sick?
When I'm sick, it's always "fun" the first few days since I feel like I have an excuse to just lay in bed all day
But then I'm like:
Ok this was fun but I don't want to be sick anymore. Can this please stop now, I got it, I will take more care of my health now

yes, even getting sick; I was thinking why so many people getting sick these days - need to avoid what they are doing wrong.
If @DarthCoin can still build and learn things at 50s, what's stopping others?

need to avoid what they are doing wrong.
I noticed first symptoms after I didn't sleep and went outside for a walk early in the morning
I think life gave me what we call in German a "Wink mit dem Zaunpfahl".
The funny part is also that @WeAreAllSatoshi mentioned here that something is going around and I wondered how much or how fast a disease can spread.
Then I got sick within a few days.
When I'm no longer sick, I'm going to start my timer of not being sick. Wanted to have such a timer for a long time!

maybe your brain engineered it because you keep thinking about it?
start my timer of not being sick
haha, and these are some of the things that I do, simple but it seems helpful - as in I don't get sick often, maybe once or twice in a year, but then I would just sleep and drink hot tea with honey for it.
  • less stress
  • sleep well
  • stay peaceful
  • more sun
  • honey replaces sugar
  • drink more water
  • eat fresh food
  • avoid alcohol
  • whenever don't feel well, just sleep!
not a doctor, only sharing as a reference; but from what I've learned, all sickness starts from the mind 👀
