i know, i haven't been posting regularly lately. in truth, it's been a month since my last post. BUT that does not mean i am not still on my quest. because actually, i am still very much following the path of the gentleman.
so how am i doing? well, honestly, with three full months behind me, i'm proud to say i'm making strides. and while i'm still thinking about what it is i want to accomplish, i'm spending less time thinking and more time doing, which is the point. i want to change my instincts, so the fact that i'm doing things naturally speaks volumes about how i'm progressing.
this past month i've been going to the gym four times a week. which is huge for me. i've successfully lost some of my winter weight. and i'm beginning to change my body. and it feels so good to see the changes start to happen.
and i have to admit, going to the gym and seeing my weight drop and my body change feels so good. because it's the first time where i'm really seeing proof that i'm changing. because everything else has been mental. i've been working on how i think and what time i wake up in the morning - but working out shows results and motivates me to see more results. and it's proof that i am changing. and by the end of this year, if i keep it up, i really will have transformed into a different person. and that person is going to be a gentleman.
on a different note, today i tried some new shaving products and i have to admit to you right now that i'm obsessed. rob got a travel kit from the art of shaving and i tried it today (of course) and it was incredibleeeeee. as much as i like looking at myself in the mirror when i have two days worth of scruff, i also love staring at myself in the mirror on a day where i'm freshly shaven. and today, i can't stop staring at how good my skin looks. and i'm also obsessed with smelling like sandalwood. i felt like such a man using a brush to spread the shaving cream over my chin and neck. it was amazing and even though i love kiehls through and through, i can't wait to see how my relationship with the art of shaving blossoms. and i will, of course, share all of that information on here.
