The Mid-Year Reflection 2024
Success, failure, and planning the rest of my year.
Next Monday marks the halfway point of this year.
Twice per year, I write long reflection articles like these.
In part, they are for me. I like writing these longer articles as a way of digesting my life. However, I also think the lessons I’ve learned this year can help you, depending on which “bucket” you’re looking to improve in.
This article will go over what’s happening in the 5 major buckets of my life:
- Jiu-Jitsu
- Health and Fitness
- Writing/Business
- Personal Life/Relationships
- Mental Health
Feel free to skip around, read only what’s interesting to you, and take what you need from this article. It is a long one.
Alright — let’s dive in.
Jiu-Jitsu
Jiu-Jitsu in Austin is kind of crazy.
It doesn’t really make sense. Austin is not a very big city. It’s known for barbecue, being the capital of Texas, and having a lot of food trucks.
But it’s also known for being “weird”. Maybe that’s why it’s attracted so many grapplers. We are weirdos.
