State of Being:
Didn’t eat much today.

I know that’s bad. It was just a weird day. Ran some errands this afternoon and didn’t get much sleep last night, as I kept having really weird nightmares.

There was a gimmicky new horror movie making the rounds that utilized theater agents to give you a generally trippy movie-going experience. They were pumping some kind of mild hallucinogen into the room via the air-conditioner and there were kids in the theater playing the part of… I dunno… weird, creepy kids, staring at you with murder in their eyes. There were even some attractive women who would hit on you and then, while you weren’t looking, they would slip on these eerie, diaphanous masks that distorted their features weirdly, especially once you’ve inhaled enough of the airborne LSD, or whatever it was.

Leaving the theater was even a kind of experience as you get jumped and attacked by several knife and/or gun-wielding assailants while you’re still tripping out.

It was the weirdest dream I’ve had in a while. It was also extremely vivid. So, my sleep wasn’t very restful.

Anyway, here’s this…
(I’m sweaty and out-of-breath from just having come in from errand-running and doing some heavy lifting and product-assembly,…)




See you tomorrow!

Got registered for Vitality today. That’s the big, giant, annual Visalus event in Orlando, Florida. It’s scheduled, this year for the weekend right after my birthday!

I’m really excited for that! I’ll finally be able to meet about a dozen people that I’ve previously only interacted with online and/or over the phone. So, that’s going to be awesome!

See you tomorrow!

State of Being:
Got to be a guest speaker on tonight’s Team-Call. It was a lot of fun.

Also, got to hear from Rachel Groves, who’s one of my heroes on the Challenge. Her story is so inspiring. I first learned of her via her 100lb.-Lost video. It really got to me.

I took the opportunity to remind everybody that it’s all about openness and transparency. If you haven’t gone public with your goal, you’re not really doing this yet.

Leave yourself no escape hatch. Step into the light and be completely, totally vulnerable. That’s the only real courage there is.

See you tomorrow!
