Warrior Dash Southeast 2010. Mud, Sweat and Beer

The Warrior Dash is a 5K Endurance Race Held all over the US. What an Awesome Time.

I trained for about 8 months for this race with three other guys.  While it is a short race, it’s brutal. We just wanted to see what it was like before we hit the Tough Mudder Race ( http://ToughMudder.com ).  The race was held in Mountain City Georgia at “The Battlegrounds”

We were the first heat at 11am on the first day and I finished in 26 minutes.  Would have been quicker but at the start I was behind several hundred people that were not as eager to cross the finish line as I was so I had to wait until there was a wide enough opening to blaze past them.  What a blast.

How To Reach Your Full Potential And Eat Your Cake Too.

Can you remember as a small child having all sorts of crazy ambitions?  Do you remember dreaming of all the things you wanted to do with your life?

As we get older, for a lot of us at least, those childhood ambitions get buried in mortgages, car payments, children and downright responsibility.  People for some reason end up going down a road far from where they ever thought they would go down.

Why does this happen?  There are numerous reasons, however we are going to tackle just a few of them.

In talking with a lot of people, I always ask a lot of questions.  The first is “What are your goals?” You would think that people would have some iron-clad goals for themselves, but most dont. Why?  Because they are so busy going absolutely nowhere, they have no idea how to move forward.  They don’t know how to map out a strategy to get what they want out of life.

A Life Lesson From Three Birds And Their Mother.

I have a weeping Japanese Maple tree in my back yard in which there has been a birds next up there for a few years.

My family and I have had the privilege of watching the building of the nest, the laying of the eggs and the life cycle of those three eggs all the way up to the day they were strong enough to take flight.

When those eggs hatch, that mother has to constantly be hunting for food to bring back to the nest and breaks up the food in her mouth and then feeds it to her chicks.  Without her, they are helpless.  They cant even move much for the first week or so.

I correlate those birds to people who are just getting started in business, especially online business.
