Mid Year Gratitude

This platform has been largely neglected.
All the busyness, hasn't been very helpful in creating time to update my blog.
It's not that I don't think that I have nothing good or no new revelations about CrossFit and Life.
I just didn't have the time to come out of my hiding hole to get it all typed out.
Well it's a Sunday and I guess its about time I did something about that.

Right now, after such a long hiatus, I don't really know where to start anymore or where to begin.
I suppose it's only right if I take some time to take a step back and be thankful.
Might sound like I'm being all sentimental and nostalgic by taking time to reminisce about everything that has happened in my life, especially this year.
But it's half way through the year, think it might be a good time to just recap a couple of things that has happened.

1) Innervate CrossFit
2) BootCamp Kick Start
3) Finishing FYP and SDP 
4) Finishing University Education
5) CrossFit Singapore Progress / 5th Year
6) Emerge
7) CrossFit Kids Course
8) Commitment to Serving and Humility
9) Many Many Cell Groups and Services which have been profoundly impactful
10) Ning's Birthday!
11) Second Attempted Tech Start-Up
12) First Tech Start-Up not being realized
13) CrossFit Games Open
14) Coursera Courses!

Well, some things might seem trivial to some. However, these are just a few things which are etched in my mind in the first half of the year. It has been quite a ride, really. Thank God for the amazing things that has happened thus far. Things will only get better (and busier) 

Why do this? Why count your blessings so early on? Or as what others would say, why count your eggs before they hatch? I guess it does something to you. Something Dr Robi (A clinical Psychologist) said previously was this, when you engage in gratitude, what doesn't ill you only makes yo strongerand that grateful people are less likely to feel envy, regret and produce stress in our lives. 

So what can we be excited about in the coming few months? I don't know man, but one thing that I'm certain of, I can't wait for them to happen. I can't wait for those breakthroughs and am hoping for amazing things to happen.

PSA. If you haven't heard, Innervate CrossFit is going to be opening soon. STAY TUNED!
