Life Updates: December 11, 2017

Life has had its ups and downs as it always does, but the my general well-being is improving in many ways. The biggest issues that plague me currently are inconsistent motivation, terrible sleep schedule, and stress management. I've also sometimes been eating poorly, but again, it is better than it was. With my winter track conditioning starting though, I will have more of a reason to begin eating a better diet consistently. I will be consistently doing cardio workouts instead of just the upper body and ab workouts I have been doing lately. This will be great for my physical health, which will hopefully allow for more energy and increased motivation. 

The sleep schedule has been a consistent issue since high school began. I don't foresee a fix for this until I am able to increase my productivity and decrease my feeling of stress. Homework keeps me up when I realize I have pushed off many assignments until the last minute and the stress kicks in when my grades suffer for it, which they currently are. They are all pretty bad at the moment, which has sparked a new motivation in me to fix them. 

Overall, it's been a rough road and fixing all of the issues in front of me is taking longer than I would like, but the result is going to be worth it. I've caught glimpses of it time and time again. I'm more social and perform consistently better in smash, so long as I am able to sleep well the night before. I'm slated to be PRed for the first time ever in two weeks, so wish me luck. Sorry these haven't been particularly smash-related, but I do have a few PM pieces coming soon, first and foremost my detailed tier list with explanations of my placings of characters. Thanks for reading.
