The motivated writer

The blog started off pretty good. The plan was to use it as a place to post the things I usually would have posted on my FaceBook. And I have! But the thing I did not expect was to get about 1000 visitors every month on my page form all over the world, THAT IS FUN!

I have been a little lazy blogging lately and for that I'm sorry - ill get better!
But as an excuse I have been busy living and that feels quite OK to.

I still go 100% on with the Krav Maga. Its really fun and I'm learning new techniques every training and getting to know my self better in different situations. Last training we got on the gloves and had a 1 vs 2 for a full 2 min. I know it does not sound much, but the time does not move as fast while training as it does while watching TV or other mindless things. Anyway, its really fun and it also is a good combiner to my weekend work as a doorman at some of the hottest nightclubs in Oslo / Norway.

In January I got my first patch in Krav Maga, the P1 (practitioner 1) it was a really hard challenge but I did good and passed. But ill make a blog post about that later. Great fun it was!

At the start of January I managed to hurt my shoulder. Never have I before felt so handicapped. All the things I can not do when the shoulder is not at its 100%. Even driving car was a challenge the first month.
Now in late March I'm still struggling with push ups. I hate not being able to give a 100%  while training and that have turned out to make me lazy and lost about 9pounds just the last months, that really sucks.

This month I have started doing something I have not done before - but i´m really eager learning more about!
I took on a new job and am now working as a Recruiter for sales jobs in Oslo. It is fun but challenging. I meet a lot of new people and do my best to find a match between the jobs we have and the people out there. But i must say, I have been surprised! REALLY, if your posting your resume on Internet and you get called up by someone that is willing to help you get a new job. We talk about what kind of jobs we can offer and book a meeting. Both parts agree and I put of a full hour for this, then suddenly a no show! really!?

That was a quick summary of what I have been doing lately. Ill post more regularly from now on again. Stay tuned and feel free to post a comment below. I want to hear what you think as well!

And if you have some good ideas on how to get better a recruiting please let me know, I want to be the best!

Summary: Krav Maga P1, new job in Recruiting, new friends, bad shoulder, will get better at blogging more again.


As always, I wish you a great day!

Tonight´s: Did you know?

Did you know that...
Nights are shorter than days on average due to two factors. Firstly, the sun is not a point, but has an apparent size of about 32 arc minutes. Secondly, the atmosphere refracts sunlight so that some of it reaches the ground when the sun is below the horizon by about 34 arc minutes. The combination of these two factors means that light reaches the ground when the center of the sun is below the horizon by about 50 arc minutes. Without these effects, day and night would be the same length at the autumnal (autumn/fall) and vernal (spring) equinoxes, the moments when the sun passes over the equator. In reality, around the equinoxes the day is almost 14 minutes longer than the night at the equator, and even more towards the poles. The summer and winter solstices mark the shortest and the longest night, respectively. The closer a location is to either the North Pole or the South Pole, the larger the range of variation in the night's length. Although equinoxes occur with a day and night close to equal length, before and after an equinox the ratio of night to day changes more rapidly in high latitude locations than in low latitude locations. In the Northern Hemisphere, Denmark has shorter nights in June than India has. In the Southern Hemisphere, Antarctica has longer nights in June than Chile has. The Northern and Southern Hemispheres of the world experience the same patterns of night length at the same latitudes, but the cycles are 6 months apart so that one hemisphere experiences long nights (winter) while the other is experiencing short nights (summer).
Between the pole and the polar circle, the variation in daylight hours is so extreme that for a portion of the summer, there is no longer an intervening night between consecutive days and in the winter there is a period that there is no intervening day between consecutive nights.
