Using Discretion

Hero is produced by Tarantino as far as I know. It is an artful film, and has my favorite asian actress in it - Zyang Ziyi.

Mark Allen writes briefly about heroism too. I read this last night:
When you have a really good experience - when you run faster than you thought you could or close four business deals in one day - try not telling anyone about it. When you do that, you become your own hero. It's enough to make you explode, because you filled yourself up with yourself. And when you've done that no one can take that away. When you don't tell anyone, you've got incredible energy inside that's all yours.
It's the same when you a really bad day. Don't tell anyone that your day was a total piece of garbage, that you didn't finish your workout, that you blew the deal, that you wimped out. Don't let anyone know about it. No one can read your mind and realize that you had an awful day. Then watch what happens inside yourself. Slowly but surely, instead of trying to get sympathy from somebody else for that poor day, you;re going to start having fewer and fewer of them. Pretty soon, they'll be great days. The body doesn't want to keep that all to itself, it wants good things to share...and you'll have them.

This blog I am writing serves to make me accountable to me, but also shares some of that with a broader persona. I have already found that there are several areas, both positive and negative, that should not be written.

This extract of Mark Allen's affirms the opinion I had to limit certain areas of information, and I think, particularly where training seems to be faltering, I am not going to write a treatise about it. I'd like to keep the information consise and brief: eg. Day 7, Ran 2 hours. That speaks for itself.

The concept has a broader appeal though, in terms of how we open ourselves to others. Is it through words, or through who we are...
