About 3 months ago I joined a new Martial Arts School headed by Master Simon Rhee. An extraordinary teacher. I was humbly placed as a mid-level blue belt along with my wife, Kathie, so we could start fresh. We both have gotten our black belts in other styles, but wanted to try something new and exciting. And this was it…

It’s important to shake things up every now and then. Actually, the more often the better. If you’re not uncomfortable, you’re not growing. So, tomorrow, Kathie and I are testing for out next rank. Blue/1 Stripe. There will be about a hundred people there including other students testing. Very exciting.

Remember the song “Shake It Up,” by The Cars? They were’nt talking about salt and pepper. Get your ass out there and make things happen. Don’t be one of those that watches other people do stuff. Post here and tell me what you’ve done recently that made you uncomfortable and made you grow. Share it so that others can be inspired, including me.

Coming April 1st. Join me on a unique journey…

I have to say, my job is really fun. Coming up with new ideas can be rewarding and challenging. And, it happens whether I like it or not! It’s like my brain is constantly searching for new things to do on its own.

So, I either have to fight it, or go along for the ride. And going along for the ride is a lot more fun. It brings opportunity, excitement, adventure and challenge. And the month of March is no different. The image above is something completely new and embodies another passion of mine. The Martial Arts.

Turning your passions into reality. That is the goal of life. If you could do all week long what you do on the weekend, what would it be? And how could you make money at it? THERE IS A WAY! All you have to do is believe it. And don’t forget to express gratiude for what you currently have…
