So over the last few days I have come to terms with something Ive termed the Alpha Male Theory. Where a certain individual has constantly tried to flare his mane, walking around flaunting what little he's got, and attempting to belittle anyone who will look twice. Its quite a funny thing to watch, after you get over the initial shock of being the target, and realise that some people in this world are so insecure within themselves that they'll go to extraordinary lengths to make themselves feel good, and look good to others.
Extrinsic Motivation. thats what drives them.
It creates a good reflective opportunity for me too. To analyse and interpret these specific environments Ive been placed in, and how I react. I hope I never fall into the trap of the Alpha Male. Sure one day when I have something that i need to protect (my own family) Im sure Ill become the protective alpha male, but hope i never become the negative Alpha Male that requires belittling others to make himself feel good.
Ive also recently had the fantastic opportunity to share a 3am run with someone nearly as crazy as me. Sure it was 3am, sure i was quite drunk, but i must admit- the quality of the workout was very very high. So high, I had an exercise induced vomit. I was going to say that the beers didnt help, but i think they did in a way. It ended up being a 10km run with the standard power bench session after. And it was really fun to have a workout partner, which i havent had for ages (not counting pack cycles). Very motivating.
Planning a White Xmas- well what can I say? Im moving to Canada in 20 weeks. To Live. for a while. like, longer than a year. and Ive got so much to write about, but im gonna use these droopy eyes to my advantage and hit the sack. Ill leave my big move for another entry.
