< So many plans but only so few pan out >
Took a photo of my riding plans drawn up in the last January as a new year solution for motorbiking.
It's not the time for a half-year review just yet but I figure at the rate things are going, I might as well call today the final day of June already.
I drew up plans for the first 8 months. Taking stock for plans planned for the first half of the year, I realized that I only managed to hit one target out of so many.
It's a terrible result. yes. sigh.
I wanted to ride to downtown for the new year illumination but I didn't.
I wanted to visit various water dams in February but I didn't.
I wanted to camp in March but I didn't.
I wanted to camp again in April as well as revisiting a beach I liked very much but I didn't.
However, I wanted to tour the Shikoku island on Jill and that, I did.
That's my one hit out of all targets.
This is frustrating. Really. Traveling own the memory lane to check why I failed to materialize these goals, I realized that I have had issues at work and family during this first half year. And I felt tired on my down time and that's why I didn't just go and ride.
Looking at this sheet it really makes me fuming at myself. However, the idea of making this list was a correct and a good one. It helped me to see what I wanted to do, helped me keeping track of my own progress and helped me to focus on my goals.
In the past six months I did ride, and I have to say that those rides were downright fun as well. I just didn't ride as much as I would like to and I didn't ride to the places I listed down.
So now is a good time to reflect upon those choices. Should I keep to the list, or should I just go with the flow?
I think the best would be striking a balance between the two. How? That's the million dollar question.
Cheers,
CK
