Day 6 (Headaches)
If you're reading this for the first time, start here.
Project Resurrection is a 9-week return to form — physically, mentally, and beyond.
Morning: Starting Point
Woke up a little off today.
Not physically.
Mentally.
Still — I honored the blueprint.
- Weighed myself.
- Fasted like I committed.
- Ate a clean first meal: 9 eggs, olive oil, multigrain toast.
- Knocked out a 30-minute Peloton ride.
Then around 3 PM, the headache hit.
Hard.
It reminded me of a deeper truth:
Consistency isn’t just discipline.
It’s also listening.
Today, my body wasn’t punishing me.
It was signaling: You didn’t fuel enough for the work you asked of me.
Afternoon: Frustration Point
There was a moment — a flicker — where old patterns tried to claw back:
"You screwed up. Today's ruined. Might as well blow it."
I heard it.
But I didn’t fold.
I used my tools — awareness, honesty, perspective.
This wasn’t a failure of willpower.
It was a mismatch: energy burned vs. energy replenished.
Simple.
Fixable.
No drama required.
Evening: Acceptance Point
By nightfall, something clicked.
No guilt.
No panic.
Just clarity.
Today wasn’t perfect.
But it was consistent in spirit.
I stayed in the fight.
I course-corrected mid-flight.
I honored the larger mission over a temporary bump.
That’s the real game here.
That’s what Project Resurrection is really about.
Key Lessons from Day 6
- Consistency > Perfection.
- Listen early — not after the alarms start blaring.
- Course-correct without guilt.
- Protect momentum like it’s oxygen.
Closing Thought
Perfection is brittle.
Consistency compounds.
And today — even at my roughest — I added another brick to the foundation.
No one else needed to see it.
I know it’s there.
