The reason of fate in social life

Do you have people in your life who hate you? Or like you? I've come across a personal observation that in life, you will be liked by some and hated by some not because of your attitude, looks or whatsoever. It's just that they like or hate you. They like or hate you because of who you are. Not because you are pretty, clever or rich.

I've come across many instances that make me conclude such. Recently I met my store manager to work for her store. She greeted me with such radiance and friendliness. As days of working go by, I found she was nice to me, always understanding, forgiving and never failing to smile and laugh. She made working at her store a happy experience. But she was not all that nice and friendly to some of the other store personnel. She didn't give them the priveleges I had. She didn't smile much to them. It's fate. Maybe she just didn't like them?

And I have also met a colleague at the store who seem to always go against my ways. He had conflicting ideas. Contrasting principles. We were probably born to hate each other. He seemed to be friendly. He seemed to give positive comments.

It's fate. In this life of love and hate, you either like or hate.

Every training has a different story

At first I tried to have a fixed perspective every each day. Like maybe a good stride tempo or positive thinking. But that just became a past idea. And it made my runs quite dull.

So I started to not think at all when training.

And so every training has a different story, different things to learn and discover.

Sometimes when you choke to much stuff in your head, it can be a bad thing. Especially when you are in a race. It might just distract.

Sports itself is an education. That's why CCA exists.

Peaking

It happened last year. And this year, again. I peaked early in the year. Of course it means a lot. It is very good news! It means a lot.
