On Strict Diet.. Ayuh

I need to create distraction. A distraction that can divert my attention from travel. Gosh... I have an expensive hobby.. err more than hobby actually, perhaps lifestyle. So, what is the distraction plan? Of course something that worth it :D

The key ingredient to my distraction plan is determination.. huh sounds challenging kan.. MEMANG PUN. I'm on three month strict DIET.

Before I started the distraction plan, i had found few tools that should help me with the Distraction Diet Plan - DDP. This to ensure I achieve the end result KPI.

1. CASHdiet

I have work out a stretching budget and divided into few categories (living, saving, happy hour,etc). I installed expenses tracking apps to keep up with my cash movement in and out. To achieve this  is not an easy task. Banyak sungguh dugaan. One of the strategy is to avoid myself from going to the mall. Kalau pergi mall.. mesti ada saja nak beli. Then to stop buying online... which is more challenging. Adoi. Rasa nak click aje buy button tu kan.

2. HEALTHdiet

I bought Fitbit Flex to track my daily calories consumption, exercise/steps taken and sleep logged. The device keep me informed about my activity levels and makes me motivated to  get moving. The truth is i'm struggling to clock in 10,000 steps a day. Huh. To date, my average sleep pattern is 6h time asleep, 8 times awakened a day and 10k steps.

3. SOCIALdiet

This means that every weekend I must plan something relevant dgn aktiviti bersosial and engagement. So far on track. Met mack yea, mami. SY & SH and go back to hometown at lease once a mth. Tomorrow, swimming day with the boys and girl.

4. LEARNdiet

Read books and articles to increase knowledge and motivation. I have subscribed to few English grammar channel on youtube to improve my writing skill. Be selective, Less TV especially all those drama yang buang masa je so I can have more time for reading. BTW, I do watch Oh My English tho :p

5. SOULdiet

STOP and take time to reflect and recite Al-Quran. Pray and ask for good things. Talk less about people. Words can hurt (and heal). Focus on responsibility to deliver work. Always think and act as a bigger person. Put company as priority not my own personal disappointment or agenda. Ask around, gossiping and bitching are a waste of time. If word on the street is bad on me, time to do self reflection. THINK before speak, Saying things without Thinking makes me stupid  unwise.

Conclusion

Three months plan already started and I hope by then I had made my life more useful and meaningful. No 4 and 5 a bit difficult to quantify, but if i'm willing to be honest, I will knew the answer kan. Let make this works. All the best!
