Thank You!!

For several years I have taught my heart out for the members of Clearwater Boxing Center- each and every week. And even though it was emotionally and physically taxing, as I look back now I truly did love every minute of it. I can recount many private discussions I’ve had with so many of you in regards to various aspects of your lives, and every time I do, I feel truly blessed to have been in a position to help you.


I know one young lady who after listening me talk about “Anchors and Motors” (a speech I give often) went out and changed all of her friends almost overnight! And she LOVED it! She told many months after the fact and how happy she was about making the change- and gave me credit for the whole thing!

I can think of a man who had been plagued by being overweight for so many years and how people would often say rude or mean remarks to him at work and in his social life. After training with me he lost the weight and stated how much he appreciated that I never looked at him different, or that he could not do something because he was overweight. In fact he recalled how I was even more demanding of him than the rest because I knew he could do it. In tears the man had thanked me.

And the list can simply continue on and on with regards to the people I have helped. I have been blessed to have been a part of so many lives in such a positive manner. I have watched so many of you change from weak to strong, from shy to outgoing, from unfocused to accomplished and from low self esteem to strength-of-heart and character that becomes the envy of others.

I thank all of you for allowing me to a part of the growth in your lives within your journey towards success.

BUT- at this point I need to give credit where credit is due, and that is to the teachers who have come before me on my own personal journey of growth personal development. The man you know me as today had some help along the way- Mr. Bittle has been my Master Instructor since 1986 and took me to my 5th degree. He was the one whom I learned passion, drive, commitment and intensity from all those years ago. And to point out just how good of an instructor he was- I am still passionate, driven committed to excellence and love to train with intensity! Mr. Bittle was one of a kind. The other gentleman who helped me reach new heights is Master Tom Callos who took me from 5th to my 6th Degree Black Belt in 2007 through his course the Ultimate Black Belt Test. Without him I believe that I would lack the professionalism and single-mindedness of goal setting and accomplishing what I set out to achieve that I possess today.

The point? You never get anywhere alone. Seek out the people who are further down the road than you in life, business or anywhere else, and ask for help. Never stop learning and growing in every aspect of your life and the results you get will be beyond your wildest dreams.

 
 

Still Reading??

Hi all,


I have been requested now several times to continue my blog with articles like motivation, mental focus and of course, workouts! So, if you’re still inclined to actually read what I write then I shall continue to do so.

I believe that the principles I have been teaching and exercising for so many years affect you across the board in life. Meaning that regardless of your age, background, income or career; subjects such as goal setting, overcoming personal challenges and proper nutrition are things you can all learn and grow from. Of course there will be a subject I’ll write about that you’ve no doubt learned in the past, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that you should skip it. After all, champions don’t need to be told what to do, but they do need to be reminded.

So, here are some topics that you’ll be sure to read about: food intake, mental focus, proper thinking in negative situations, creative workouts, motivating mottos, workout outlines, the workouts that I just did, goal setting techniques, being a real friend, becoming a real team player, becoming a leader. I’ll also be sure to post my workouts and the time I do them in with the amount of weight I use to see if you can beat me.

New subjects that I’ll be writing will be financial savings, investing, investing vehicles, ways to save, compound interest and of course “how to choose a Financial Advisor.” (I’ll be one in the Denver area soon.) So please stay tuned into my blog and PLEASE- stay in touch as well. I would love to hear from everyone and learn how life is moving along for you all.

See you next blog!!
