Back on Track 2013

Well the new year has begun and I am committed to doing a daily blog. I like this avenue to post things that I find enjoyable or humorous, etc. Those of you that know me know I became a Christian a long time ago but I fell away from that in the past few years. NOT because I believe any less in the salvation fofered by Christ but because to the religiousness of churches and one churches that just asked for more and more of me while spiritually feeding me less and less. So I took time off from church.

I have started back to a very fun church in Bolingbrook and I am enjoying this time of renewal. I was sitting in church this past week as they announced the man running the video and tech group is leaving to become a full time pastor at a church in Joliet. My first incling was to tell the pastor that I can help in that department but then I decided that I am going to enjoy this time of humility and receive from the Lord.

I have also set a number of other goals/resolutions for the year. I am posting them hear so you will ask me about them periodically and keep me on track.

So hear goes....

Self-Development - I am going to focus on self development and peace of mind this year, this will include 30mins of reading the bible a day, 10-15 minutes of meditation daily and  30 minutes of reading a self help book. I am currently reading @ryanblair's "Nothing to Lose, Everything to Gain", I am about a third of the way through it and enjoying Ryan's commonsense take on things.

Visalus - I am going to do what it takes to become a Visalus Ambassador this year, in order to do that I need to help 100 - 120 people make an additional $300 - 500/month. I will start this by re-qualifying as a director in January, followed by qualifying as a Regional Director in March, then as a National Director in June, then as a Presidential Director in September, then finally an Ambassador in November. I will reward myself for this hard work by taking my children to Disney World for the Christmas Holiday 2013.

Health - On top of continuing the 90 day challenges I am going to ramp up my exercise program and start the P90X exercise program on 1-5-13. I am starting on a Saturday to I can gauge if doing this first thing in the morning will be the wisest choice.I will post my progress via this blog and on my bodybyvi challenge site.

Relationships with my children - I am getting back on track and taking my children out on 1 on 1 days to reconnect with them. I will do this every other week. I will also take my children at least once a week during the week in addition to the weekend I have done.
