Dear Claude,
Actually, I wanted to start with Dear ChatGPT, but Claude sounded more human.
I’m having no energy. I’m permanently tired. First, I sleep poorly. Second, my nutrition is a disaster. Plus, I have a nasty habit of overeating, which makes me having even less energy. I do not exercise, and I’ve stopped doing yoga. I’m not meditating any longer. I’m having too little — or often none at all — time for myself. Because I have two kids, plus wife who decided she’s getting a career, and she wants to compensate for some things she missed in her twenties. So, I support her for that, as she needs to live through that shit to develop further. I’m having no close friends, and it feels like no friends at all. No extended family, only my closest ones (kids and wife), so I’m having no external support, neither I have external people to socialise.
I’m not attending gym either. I walk a lot, ten to twenty thousand steps a day—
through the great sceneries, the greatest I’ve seen through my entire life. So, that helps in a way…
But I do no other exercises, only that. Not even push-ups, situps, not to say pull-ups or crunches. I gave up on yoga at some point, after some years of sleepless marathons.
Also, I’ve stopped running. And I haven’t visited gym, sauna, and swimming pool quite a while ago too.
Dear Claude, what can I do to have more energy? Are there some techniques to have more energy? Any obvious low-hanging fruits I could start with?
You won’t believe it, but that was the message I had in my head, which I wanted to address any LLM slop machine to throw some ideas at me.
Than I laughed (silently, in my head) at how stupid I actually am, and decided to just have this shit written. There, there your fucking obvious ways to have some more energy, they are right fucking there, just read them, and think of those you can implement first.
I don’t know, maybe start sleeping. Learn how to relax better and do that. Then you could start doing some push-ups and situps at home. Then, some crunches. And some basic yoga too. Especially since you know a great deal about yoga now, why won’t you start right there? Then, you can start running, say, after the winter. And then, at some later point, you could attend gym. Since all gyms love using the New Year resolutions, you may use that to join gym for peanuts, for some winter time. That may help as well. In parallel, you could focus on eating much less, and also improving the nutrition plan too. That’ll contribute into you having some energy.
