well, one week of #75hard down and 9.7 weeks to go.
After one week, I can say it's putting stress on my body but more than that it's made me prioritize my time. Made planning my day a routine instead of an occasional thing. It's forced some bad habits to the sidelines just due to time constraints. Sure I've lost a couple pounds but I can understand why it's described as more mental than physical.
Either way, if you're not actively moving towards your goals, you'll end up sliding away from them. So, active it is.

I don't think I've shared my dogs yet. So, we'll start from the beginning. Rascal was my first dog. Super sweet and loved the snow.

Looking good. What do you plan to move it with? Or is it light enough to wheel around by hand?
Life lesson ... Just because you're stuck using a tiny electric grill setup doesn't mean you can't make good steak. If life is what you make it ... I'm making steak.

Hey, I've been on back roads that look like that. Sounds good in theory but you shoulda heard us swearing as we biked up it. Ugh. Jokes aside ... The #philosophy is sound!
Exactly ... The typical feed was such a time suck. I'll never have to see that here. If one app decides to try, I can just switch to another or go to a web feed. I'm in control.
Dang ... Look how quick that got zapped. Lol. See what I mean? #zaps
My favorite thing about nostr is that the feed isn't an endlessly scrolling repeat of the same content that I don't care about. It's only what I want to see in chronological order. I can scroll for 5 minutes and see everything new. Or, I can go check out new hashtags. So much better when you're in control. Getting zaps is the icing on the cake.

Apple trees are in bloom. I've never had huge success with them. I refuse to spray so what does take ends up looking gnarly. The kids tend to bake them into things though. Any good non-chemical methods for getting better fruit?

Stuff your face with meat and water. Can't think about putting sweets in there when you have a stomach ache! 😂
Trying to convince my wife we need a dump trailer.
Welsummer now ... Although we've had barred rock and Rhode island reds too.
Another hard thing that I do is trail running. I'm not fast but it requires a lot of training and perseverance ... And alone time in the woods. This picture is me finishing 12+ hours of trail running and still carrying my kid across the finish line. I hope these memories inspire them to reach high as well.

Chickens are back to full production for sure. Forgot to collect eggs for a day or two and suddenly I have a basket full. Looks like I'm having eggs and bacon for breakfast this week!

Doing hard things makes you a better human. Bikepacking is one of my hard things. Loaded down with gear, bike all day, camp all night, then bike all the way back. Good times.

Doing #75hard with @maakw ... All that's left for day 1 is to read. First book... "The Revolution" by Ron Paul.

Only 74 days to go.
You mean you don't own one ... Yet!
Last post in this thread. In my opinion the single most impactful thing you can do to make sure you create meaningful change in the world is to stick around long enough to do the required things. You can't help others until you help yourself. Grow your own physical and mental toughness so that you're able to live the life you want, on your terms, and leave behind the change you want to see for the future generations.
