Welcome to Episode 23 of my podcast The view from the crow's nest. Thank you very much for tuning in. Today's episode is going to be quite a relatively short one. I'm gonna start with how I'm feeling right now which I don't usually do so much but hey it's that day. And then I'm going to tell a funny anecdote which will, you know, I think you'll find interesting amusing but also potentially has an interesting twist, who knows. So, I'm feeling pretty low today I gotta say I'm fitting in a bit of bad mood. The last three days I've been working but focused on admin really crappy boring admin tasks. And the previous two weeks to that I got. If you've been listening to the podcast. I've been helping out my brother launched a new business that he just launched, and it wasn't something I wanted to get involved in, but he asked and it's my brother and you know I've got certain skill set in certain areas that I could help him with so I did. And the problem was, it's really been to the detriment of my main focus. Now again, if you've been listening to the podcast you'll know that I have this mantra that I've been kind of building over the last month and it's been working really well which is done by one then fun, meaning I've done all my work by about one o'clock in the afternoon and then I'm having the afternoon. What I say off. I may still work, but also I might take the kids out, I might go, you know, do something relaxing do so. And just took the pressure off myself and it's been working really well, and the focus of my Dumbo one is to focus on one project the most important project that I've got on at the moment that I've deemed the most important and really bring that through to completion. And that project at the moment is grip the sky experience grip the sky is an EP of mine, and I wanted to release it, but I wanted to release it in a way that people hadn't seen before. Do something a bit different do something a bit cool. And so I'm putting together the grip the sky experience. And the problem is having worked on my brother's project and been really kind of drafted into that. It's completely been to the detriment, not only of my own grip the sky experience main focus but in also my Dumbo one in front of your work in the afternoons evenings. And so, I realised that when my my wife pointed this out to me it's very obvious one, but I needed her to point out to me. Previously, but now recognise it. If I haven't worked on something important and felt like I've moved forward with something. Even if I've been really busy and got things done. Then I start to get a bit cranky. After you know a few weeks, especially if I haven't done anything creative, if I haven't written songs written music, worked on a screenplay or a story or done anything kind of from the creative area. And so, I recognise that I'm feeling a bit blue I'm feeling a bit low. And so this week coming. I'm really going to redouble my focus back to my project grip the sky experience which is really nearly finished. There's more I could do with it but I want to get it out there so I will finish it this week I budgeted two weeks for it it's now going to be in four weeks, but you know that's that's where I'm at with it it's very nearly done. In fact, if you go to grip the sky. COMM, you won't see much because it's a holding page but you can fill in your name and email if you wish to be notified as soon as it's live and ready for your enjoyment. So that's going to be my focus tomorrow, or so. I am doing for the first time in my life I have a personal trainer, I'm starting with tomorrow morning. I've always trained in martial arts, principally in the last 10 Plus, his traditional Chinese martial arts. And in the last year I've not really done too much I've been a bit sporadic, but I'm pretty good at kind of training myself when I have time, but I realised I wasn't making time for it and my health isn't where I want it to be I'm in my healthiest fine but I want to be more fit an
