Start Working Out - Make It Hurt!

June 17th, 2009 | Start Working Out | 6 Comments | Written by Fighter

Once upon a time, I used to work out a LOT. I could bench 200 pounds and you could iron a shirt on my stomach (haha yea right I wish). But yes, I used to work out a lot and it showed.

Working out is not just to lose weight - there are a lot of other benefits!

=> I had incredible energy
=> I felt great
=> I was getting exercise
=> I ate a lot more!

For the last year or so, I stopped working out for many reasons. I’m not going giving excuses, yes, I did get lazy too. But, mostly…

=> I started traveling a LOT…
=> Business became very demanding
=> Most of all…I got LAZY

But, now that’s over. I’m publicly declaring it’s time for a change. I’m building accountability not only to the world, but to a great friend Jimmy.

BTW, my friend Jimmy lost over 100 pounds in the last year - amazingly impressive. But the dude literally walks around with a food weighing scale. I’m not saying I’m ready to go that far, but we had an amazing work out last night.

So…you ready to see Buff Fighter? Well get ready.

And…lesson for today - join me. Even if you just go for a walk or something. Get up. Move. You need the physical exercise to live a more fulfilling life.

Just Wing It - STOP The Planning!

June 16th, 2009 | Burnout, Random | 2 Comments | Written by Fighter

This past weekend was my 26th Birthday. In the past I always plan huge parties; restaurants, hotels, VIP at the top clubs, etc…

However, this year…things changed.

Not sure if I was just lazy, emotionally exhausted, tired of planning all the time at work…but I REFUSED to plan anything. My friends asked over and over what I was planning and I had no idea until 4PM on Friday.

My plan?

I decided on the CITY to go to and told everyone to just meet there after 10 PM. “We’ll figure out where to go once we get there…let’s WING IT!”

What Happened?

Actually, Friday night was not that great. Don’t get me wrong, I love hanging out with my friends, but nothing “eventful” happened. Most of the time when I “wing it” - I’ve had an amazing time.

Either way, I didn’t give up on the idea…

Saturday night - I wung it again. This time, instead of having my usual 40+ people for my birthday, I had 4.

The Result?

I think I had the best time of my life!  It was awesome. We had no idea where we were going till 9PM that night. We never even ended up at the original bar we intended to.

The night ended with me up-rooting many bushes from the ground, placing them on a friend’s car (honest mistake) and much more!

Why Am I Telling You This?

Because you need to do it. It’s refreshing.

You spend all your life “planning” things. Do this. One night, one day, one weekend - any time…just leave the house with absolutely NO PLAN.

See where you end up.

It will revive you like nothing else. Do it, I dare you.
