To sum it up

The end of the year is coming up in less then a month. The end of UBBT 7 is coming up in less then a month as well. Just over a year ago I had returned to Kung Fu after fairly long hiatus and grabbed one of the last stops on team 7 for our school. It's been a rocky year since I signed up, but if it was easy I wouldn't have gotten anything out of this year. It's when times are hard that you have the most personal growth and it's impossible to learn if you don't make mistakes. To answer the question what has the UBBT process done for me, my answer would be that it forced me out of my comfort zones and into situation where I was able to both grow and learn. A byproduct of this was that it also allowed me to realize some personal goals that had fallen by the wayside, excused by not having enough time, money, etc..
Physically from when I started I stronger and have much better cardio. I still have a lot of growing in this area and my numbers weren't the greatest for my physical requirements. On the other hand I surpassed or at least will meet my goals that were career based. I was able to get my website finished which is something that has been laying around the back of my mind gathering dust and cobwebs.
One of the biggest learning experiences this year was when I took on the 100 mile challenge. After learning about the food industry and the many negative impacts that it has on everything from the environment to the human body I tried for 100 days eating food that came from 100 miles of where I resided. Starting in April made things even tougher since most food was out of season so we ate mostly root vegetables. Sticking strictly to this diet is something doesn't work for me but can be assimilated into my eating habits.
Another thing that the UBBT has done is allowed me to increased my mindfulness. Through daily meditation and my 1000 acts of kindness requirement I have become increasingly more aware of my actions as well as the actions of others around.
All in all it has been a tough but very quick year and I am very thankful for the opportunity to have taken part in the UBBT.
