Lately, I've been feeling out of sorts. It seems I overestimated my abilities and took on more than I could handle. My sleep schedule is off, discipline has weakened, my diet leaves much to be desired, and I've been battling a depressive state for the past two weeks. The most interesting thing is that I realize that objectively everything is fine, but inside it's like there's darkness that drains energy and makes me see the world through grey glasses.

But yesterday, I decided to pull myself together: I got up at my usual 6:20, went straight to the gym, and even set a 48-hour fast for myself. And, surprisingly, the depressive state literally vanished. I now understand that the efforts were not in vain.
