My Immediate Changes Needed

             MY NEEDS

1. Need to change my way of thinking about ...

    A. Eating of Vegatables ( overcome this issue NOW )

    B. Learning to do awesome 3x3x3's each day ( Overcome my lack of knowledge on HOW to do this, no more excuses, get mentored and be taught by those who make it happen, ask for help, don't be shy -Take Action)

    C. Stay on 5 and 1 and get to my after weight, ( yet not let the fact that I am still 150lbs from goal to hold me back from being a great Coach and quit using it as an excuse of WHY YOU STRUGGLING, OVERCOME THIS

   D. Learn to just be myself, ( and quit worrying about not being extroverted or a great closer or presenter or organizer and all the other attributes you think make a Successful Coach, because you have all those within you, learn from your Community, practice, practice and practice some more and you will OVERCOME THIS TOO )

    F. Learn the Habits of Health, ( quit procrastinating and get it done, stop whining and worrying and be positive each day and let your actions create your LOA results, become the person you should be, not the person you want to be, TAKE ACTION NOW, if needed look for others to take this journey with, just like Bible Study Groups, maybe create a HoH Study Group, ask your Team members about this)

    E. Educate myself, (Take local Community College classes, thinking Office 365 , Social Media Marketing  and look for an Organizing & Time management class) 

Black and Blue from Dentist, ouch!!

As you can see I think something may be wrong, as having Black n Blue face should not be after teeth extractions. I am going back this afternoon, will let you know then what they say, most likely just takes time to heal...ugh!!

Still looking for my very 1st Optavia Client, they say you never forget your 1st, until I get one I'm not sure I can say for sure...lol  I know in time they will come and each person will be forever grateful that they found me and Optavia, because it really is that good, I promise you that much.

Take care and have a wonderful Easter Holiday weekend

3 TEETH PULLED TODAY, GONNA BE TOUGH FEW DAYS

I want to start posting here more again, just haven't did a few things that I wanted to do before I started up again.

1. I  was hoping to have my 1st New Client by now, but guess I may need more training and time then I thought, so might as well be content and focus more on me, and train of course.

2. I have allowed my life and the stress of it overcome me at times and , while my Coach is awesome, my issue's are not hers and she too has her life to deal with, yet she still cares and keeps trying to get me on track to stay, Not on and off again, it is tough on me , Physically with my Accident and Rehab I must go through. Mentally I also had to see a "Shrink" to help me keep from falling off the really deep end, it worked, but it is still a struggle, and sadly I ask my self WHY WHY WHY and WHY?? HOH teaches you how to overcome and get things right with you, I did the video a few times , and will do it again another dozen or so minimum, because this needs to be second nature to me.

3. Financially I am at a current low point, unable to work since my Accident last May, my Occupational Insurance ( like Workers Comp Insurance) is looking for ways to not pay me, holding my checks since January, and recently released some money, just enough to pay my bigger bills, and still not looking like they plan on reinstating the checks anytime soon, hopefully I am wrong on this and my checks return, but until then life is stressful not having money, it's very hard knowing "Homelessness" could be soon, very soon. Now being an Optavia Coach one day will take my financial worries away, as I really feel this is my life's calling, helping others and I do so much enjoy just the thought of this. It may take a little bit longer for me to get my clients and team going , but I will become one of the best ever to join Optavia in years.

4. Sorry my pain pills are kicking in, more to come

March 26th, 2019 Louisville, Ky.

I want to thank my friend for driving me up from Jacksonville to Lexington with a stop in Asheville for the night. I am here to help begin this change in my life.

I will be attending the Truck Show this week and sadly I will still need to be in a Scooter , maybe next year I can walk the Show on foot and be normal again. Hope so.

I will try to get this blog up and going again , this time focusing on me and my journey into helping others to lose weight and obtain an Optimal Health. I will try to start with a group I know too well, Truck Drivers. I feel that I can help them because I have been one for over 17yrs and struggled with my weight and finding the right thing to work with me and work for me, And most important it was so easily to do in the truck on the road , even if out for weeks at a time. I can't wait to help others learn what I did. 1 driver at a time.

I am entering a new phase of my life, please come along.

Hello everyone I am starting to finally get my weight issue under control and my Truck Driving days may be over. I am not positive my Trucking Career is over, but I have alot to do to be 100% again. If the Good Lord is willing I will be physically able to in time, I do hope I get back to 100%.

 In the mean time I am embarking on a new venture of being a "Health Coach" and feel that I just may be pretty good at it, especially with all the struggles I been through. Helping others also has always been an uplifting thing for me, and many others mention how I have kept them motivated reading my post on FB and a few suggested I become a Coach. It helps me in a number of ways, holding me more accountable, and being more focused and helping others only helps me that much more. I really believe in this and hope you all can get behind me and help me become one of best Coaches out there. I know that is aiming very high, but I truly feel that I can really be great at this.

I will still love my Bucket List just below this post, but I think this will be a way to get all this stuff done. Faith got me this far and from this point forward it will take to places I never thought I could do or see again. 

It may be some time before I remember how to make these post's more enjoyable and post plenty of pictures and other helpful and funny stuff. 

 I want to say right now Thank you God for all you have done in my life and all you have planned for me , I truly feel this is what you wanted to do, thank you for giving that chance. Amen

My Bucket List

 
                                  Bucket List
 1.  I would like to hit the Kentuncky Derby Superfecta once before I die, this is just a personal challenge I have not been able to accomplish, and will never stop trying.
a. side note
If I do hit the Derby Super, it would most likely be able to finance a number of my other List Items, so wish me well.

2.  Earn a Winner's Circle picture in NYRA circuit , prefereably in Saratoga Springs, but NYC would be just fine too.
a. side note
As member of DAS , this may become a reality before anything else on my list


3.  A all inclusive week of Fishing in Alaska during the summer, this is a trip of about 7500.00 minimum, maybe if one was creative it could be cheaper, but I wish to be able to bring home my catch which could be up to a few hundred pounds, I hope. This my most desired of all my fishing trips, guarenteed to catch lots of fish and in a pristine place.

4.  To be able to spend a season at Sarotga Springs for an entire race season and this may be my most pricey of all Bucket list items. A 1 br season rental near track could run 5500-7500 a season, phew alot, then I must survive, so another 5000 for food and incidentals, like cab , groceries, restruants and of course wagering, maybe a small 2500 bank for this, or a 1000 make it or break it bank...lol  I would definetely have a few friends I could meet up with at this meet, and if lucky enough possibly get picture in the Winners Circle, with my association with Drawing Away Stables , which means 2 Bucket List items are done in one big swoop, if only it was that easy. Price is flexible and I may need min. 7500 to 11000 to enjoy it as it is meant to be enjoyed.
a. side note
I could look into volunteering again with Backstrech Employee's Service Team, a non-profit helping the backstrech employees, I never had so much fun in my life than that year working behind the scenes of Saratoga, it was wonderful. Sad part is without a Derby hit, this may never happen, as I am a hard working man but to save 12k in a year to blow would be awesome, but making that much may be too much to do, but it is there in case Number 1 is ever hit.
b. This is where hitting the Derby Superfecta may help pay for this excursion, otherwise it may never happen, but maybe a week or 2 could still take place, if I had a DAS runner with a real chance to win, and DAS does win.

5.  This is tough choice cause I guess you are suppose to only have 5 things, but I am torn between 2 things for my last spot and think I will add a 6th spot, Fishing and Horse's as you see are my 2 great passions in life, because Pam Anderson is married again, lol.
Taking the 5th spot is min. 2 weeks at a NYC track, (I hear Mecca is better, either would do, not Belmont week too crowded for me, sorry) all 1st Class like there was no tomorrow.
Getting an inclusive tour of the front and back of the track, and as an Owner, (with my affiliation with DAS ),  be treated as such, not quite sure what that entails, never been an owner before, but it must be a once in a lifetime experience . I have some facebook friends and DAS friends and even some Paceadvantage.com (horse forum site) friends that I could try to meet up at the track, spend a day handicapping like I do it everyday, with the best people in the world, I would be like I died and went to heaven , being able to cap with the best, if they would allow me to for a day or 3 , I think most will. This adventure could also allow me to complete Bucket item #2 and get a picture in the Winners Circle if timed right and I had the right horse , which both can be done with good planning.
a. Side Note
Cost of this is not too bad, a 2 week hotel stay in NYC near track is about 2500 or so, then I need a nice bamk of 2500 or so, and then a little extra to see a few NYC city things and taxis and tips and such, also a few dinners for some friends too. 5000 minimum and any more would make it that much better, THIS IS A MUST DO FOR ME SOON, as my health is touch and go, and unless I turn it around I may not be around much longer, so while Bucket item #5, it may be the 1st thing I do, if I can.

6. Another fishing trip, this time to Bud n Marys marina in Islamaroda in the Keys . A 2 week trip with at least 10 trips on the party boat they have and 3-4 days of chartering or sharing a charter for full days Offshore at min. 1300 to 1700. this is the pricey part, but worth every penny if we find the Mahi's and limit out each day, big is but these guys are the best and know how to fish. Again my intention is to take my catch home and to share it with local churches and homeless shelter, and of course have plenty for me too, no lies or misunderstanding, ok.
a. Side Note
Cost varies here to go for 2 weeks and stay at the Marina is roughly 2800 for 2 weeks , 400 for food, and 650 for 10 day trips on the Party Boat, for a total of about 4000.
Now for each of the 4 day I can go on a full charter offshore will be an additional 1300 min. for a total of 2600-5200 , if I can not find any shared charters. Sharing would be fun too.
So 4000 grand for no Offshore charters but still 10 days of fishing if the boat goes out each day, that is alot of fishing too.
Maximum cost 9200, phew, come om Derby Superfecta Hit !!!
That is my Bucket List as of Now, none of these things have been done as listed here, but a few have been done in a single day or 2, but never for entire season or 2 weeks at a time, with the Good Lord willing I may be able to make enough to do a few items , but will need a miracle to do a few others, but I will never stop hoping and working to get them all done, wish me well and if possible say a pray for me , please

Well I am unsure if this is real or not, if it is, I would hate to run across it. I am lacking the effort to keep this blog going, but I been stuck lately , up and down 3-4 pounds , so I may need to change things up and hopefully blow this weight right out Me arse !!! What do ya say about that

Well it is Valentine's Day, and guess what I am alone again, the Ex in Germany, and I am here struggling along each day, and things are getting worse not better. Surgery is needed , like yesterday, but without Insurance, we know that will not happen. I did find a place for about 6 thousand in Vegas who would do it, maybe I need to do a fund raiser for me , but who'd show up for that, all 5 people who read this blog not likely they live no where near me, so I  go each day PRAYING I do not need emergency surgery, becuase if I do , THEN I AM SCREWED FOR SURE, or so the Doc says.

Otherwise have great day
