Wow Mounds, can I ask are you "gifted" or do you feel overloaded by your Hobbies?

By gifted I mean if you can occupy your Mind and live such a Physical Lifestyle (doing Muay Thai and Ju JitSu together takes some beating), if you feel "under challenged" and want more challenging things contact a "gifted persons" organisation.
I didn't catch your age, but I know when I did school admission enquiries this one parent said her Son in Play School aged 4 was gifted as he knew Maths, Reading and Art Skills well beyond his years and had a very enquring mind that would challenge the most skceptical of adults.

However if you're feeling overloaded, and if you are "a jack of all trades but a Master of None" then it might be worth scaling back or cutting things out altogether.
At my peak I was studying Tae Kwon Do, Aikido, Jeet Kundo, Judo- whilst Weight Training, Swimming, playing Guitar, Meditating and studying Media Studies full time.

However as I never got to 2nd Dan Black Belt World Class Champion in either Martial Art or didn't become a Steve Vai Guitar Maestro, or a Professional Body Builder, Spiritual Leader or Media Mogul- it is safe to say I should've stuck to two.
