Don’t Settle
Recent events at work made me rather upset. Consequently, I found myself applying for every job in sight. All I wanted was something new. Spamming job applications resulted in a few responses from companies for interviews for phone sales and customer support positions. I have worked phone customer support and sales before.

One Year of Accomplishment
I started this blog one year ago today! What a journey it has been. My first post marked a monumental moment for me. I stood on the scale saw a number instead "error". I was so excited to see the number 335 on that scale. I remember telling myself "I am going to go all the way." I …
Patience – Lessons from Fishing
Last week I drove up the canyon seeking to scratch an itch. The warm weather has been making me want to get out and fish. The river was rather productive last week.

I lost 160 lbs, hiked more than 500 miles, and biked over 100 miles. I finished my first sprint triathlon, became a morning person, stopped playing video games, and …
Winter Adventures
Hey friends! I know I haven't posted in a long while. I have been busy with the holidays and other adventures. The frigid weather hasn't kept me down. After losing all my insulation this year, I am always cold. Last January I wore a 3XL shirt and a 54" waist. For christmas I purchased 8 new L T-shirts, …
Progress: When Forwards Feels Like Backwards
Thoughts about life saunter through my head lately. Sometimes while sitting and reflecting on our present circumstances, we focus only on our immediate problems. We only observe the present. We see only what we want to see. I recently remembered the importance of stepping back to observe the whole picture. Often while hiking on the Appalachian trail I …

Growth by doing
Each journey starts with the first step. Yesterday I spontaneously decided to go for a hike. Sometimes we can be overzealous in our endeavors biting off more than we can chew. While sometimes this can turn bad, often these experiences are the most memorable they teach us through experience. I didn’t plan my hike yesterday All I knew …
