Your Time Is Worth Much More Than You Think


When I wrote my post, Grab Today By The Balls Because It Just Might Be Your Last, last week, my goal was to try to get you thinking about how short life is and how everything we hold most dear can be gone in an instant. It was intended to be a wake up call […]

life is short

Grab Today By The Balls Because It Just Might Be Your Last


I think about this every day. Every single day. Life. Is. Short. If you’ve read my blog at all, you know I have a very strong stance on how short I believe life to be. I’m a huge advocate for finding what it is that lights you up inside and going after it with all […]

The Thunderous Sound Of Silence


This is a story of a very special person. If you are on my email list, then you have heard me speak of one of my personal training clients, Linda (not her real name of course). Linda is a middle aged woman, mother of 2 indignant grown children, and wife to a estranged husband. Her […]

Turn The Page


I’m not sure if I’m happy, sad, angry, or hurt. I think I’m just indifferent at this point. I got an email from my attorney last week telling me that I’m officially divorced. That’s it. No tears, no hugs, no condolences. Just 8 years of a marriage now just another statistic in the Maryland court […]

Fuck Off, Resistance


“Resistance cannot be seen, touched, heard, or smelled. But it can be felt. We experience it as an energy field radiating from a work in potential. It’s a repelling force. It’s negative. Its aim is to shove us away, distract us, prevent us from doing our work.”~Steven Pressfield, The War of Art. Welcome to my […]

At this moment, I’m sitting in a large field, covered with newly green grass and a blanket of dandelions as far as I can see. The sun is shining in a cloudless sky, the air is pure and clean, and the wind is blowing just enough to cool the sun’s warm rays. There isn’t a […]

The REAL American Hustle


If you’re hoping this post has something to do with the movie, I’m sorry to disappoint you. Although, who doesn’t want to see Bradley Cooper sporting a sweet perm?!? The hustle I’m talking about is what put Gary V on the radar of every person out there who wants to live off of their passions […]

It’s Time To Become A Rock Star


So I was sitting on my couch yesterday afternoon watching one of my favorite Gary Vaynerchuk clips on Youtube and decided to listen to some tunes. For some reason, I came across a concert video from an old school metal band (I used to be a headbanger in high school!) and started watching it. And […]

The Evolution Of An Inspired Blogger


It’s been 2 months since I’ve returned to blogging and honestly feel like I’m back home. This is where I find peace and happiness and know now with certainty that I want to make writing an instrumental part of my life. In the 2 years I was away, my life has changed dramatically. Quitting my […]

5 Reasons Not To Be An Ungrateful Bastard


So there I was yesterday morning, just going about my business and planning my day out. My to do list, like most of yours, is about 30 things deep and I’m constantly struggling to keep up with all the things I need think I have to do. I had an appointment with one of my […]
