Freediving Achievements Worth Celebrating

Why do I always make a point to celebrate small successes or little achievements? Some may see such things as not important but I think it is. Celebrating little achievements helps us track our progress. By acknowledging these smaller milestones, we get a clearer perspective on how far we have come in our journey. It allows us to evaluate our strategies and make necessary adjustments to achieve our larger goals and helps cultivate a positive mindset. Personally speaking, celebrating small achievements helps me focus on the positive aspects of my efforts and fosters a sense of gratitude and contentment.

Here’s celebrating mine and my instructor’s achievements and milestone in freediving. PB for me and AIDA Competition Judge for him. I just broke my PB last weekend while Swen has just passed his AIDA Judge’s course. A small milestone for me while a big one for him.

Congratulations, Swen Becht for being an AIDA Judge. I’m so proud and happy for you. I can now let my imaginations run wild all the way to Panglao or Vertical Blue and feel like a real athlete when I train with you. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

My current PB
FIM- 23.2m
CWTB- 20.3m
DYN- 30m
STA- 2 mins 6 sec

Let’s not talk about my pool skill. My DYN and STA are sorely stagnant. I haven’t been doing anything about that so it still sucks big time. But I did move up a little bit for FIM on my school’s leaderboard, so yay to that! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Although there’s still much to improve but I’m pretty happy with my depth attempts progress. I’m still doing the 1m at a time thingie, so it will take a very long time if I were to attempt deeper depth…say…25m below. I hope I can hit 20m below consistently through both FIM and CWTB one fine day. That’s my goal for now.

There’s so much to improve, and I noticed that I need some skills upgrade when it comes to relaxation. My focus tends to break when my body feels the changes in temperature and when my awareness of surroundings becomes really hyper and really intensified.

I think it’s time for me to go back to my Saturday’s meditation session with my Reiki Grandmaster and focus on all the inner energy works so that I can go on a somewhat meditative state while freediving. The reason why I kinda stop meditating so much these days is because I tend to go into astral travel mode and I’m not grounded and need to be called back. 🀧🀧🀧
