I made some changes to my routine this morning. I removed poetry and added French to my list of learning. I have come to accept that I am not and will never be a poet because honestly its an elusive art. You can rhyme things but it won’t be the same as William Wordsworth or Bahinabai Chaudhari. I haven’t completely given up though just for a brief period until I can brush up my French again. It has been 18 years since I left Nigeria and practiced French and surprisingly I still remember some things but I have some work to do.

Even at the gym I made some changes. I have stopped recording all my workouts. It became too much work at one point and I need to manage my time better so I am recording one exercise per day. Just enough to post to Instagram. With the way attention spans have gone down I won’t be making videos more than 10 seconds. I trained calisthenics at the gym today and finished 20 minutes earlier than usual.

Went home and lunch was Eggs, Okra, Potatoes with Peanut Garlic Chutney and Yoghurt on top. This combination isn’t new but it was served differently. I was bored of mashed potatoes after eating them for the tenth time. So I cut them this time. This combination is killer by the way. If you have access to Sriracha, Peanuts, boiled and cut Potatoes and Yoghurt you can have yourself an amazing Potato side dish with minimal effort.

Went for a walk in the evening. Day 54 was a success!
