    Day 3... Opps... lets skip to Day 4

    Day 3 I played hooky. I had a rough week. I a lot of thinking. Wanted some zone out time.

    So onto Day 4... Today was pretty good. Arrived about 5 minutes late. Mostly because i was sitting in my car dreading confronting life, but hey. So I finally walk to the grass greeted by a warm smile and start my boot camp. It was good. In just a couple days I feel myself getting stronger. Took some pics for some "before" shots. Not sharing though. It's embarrassing. And when the hour was up I walked to the cliff looking over the ocean and did a bit of meditation. Okay so like a minute of no thoughts, but then the rest of the 14 minutes were spent being grateful for all that I do have. A business partner who is a great friend and support, my family whether they have done me right or wrong I was grateful. My friends who are inspired by me. And the awe I have for my friends. This week is my 29th birthday. Maybe G-d will give me all the answers I am looking for as a gift.

    Or maybe, just maybe, he has already given me all my gifts and I just need to unwrap them.

    Day 2... Medic please :)

    Wow, I definitely was dragged to go to the camp today. Being an entrepreneur took my health away. I just dreaded being reminded of it. Sitting in front of the computer each day eats at your muscles and left me with little appetite to properly nourish myself. I was huffing and puffing through the whole thing. But happy I stayed. Didn't give up. Well if not leaving equates to not giving up. I didn't give it my all that's for sure. The whole process reminded me of when I had a tumor years ago (I'm okay now) and had it removed. The journey back to recovery was draining. My body just didn't function as it once did. I had to rebuild. And here I go again. Rebuilding...

    Workaholis, Asmatic Entreprenuer Seeks Balance

    Yeah, It's tough being an entrepreneur. So today I start Boot Camp. The funny part is for owning a sports company I am completely out of shape. I don't look it, but I feel it. Totally worn down from constantly sitting in from the the computer, forgetting to eat, lacking sleep and "Free time" what's that. Just last week my business partner asked me what I do for fun. "Fun"? "Well,"... I answered "Work". Isn't that the goal. To do what we love. What we are passionate about so it doesn't feel like work. But then let me tell you after years of it "Life" gets lost and work becomes everything. So it's time to change things up a bit. And today was my first day of Boot Camp. I discovered it in the grocery line, probably buying my late night snacks, sushi and soda. Gleaming like an oasis out of the corner of my eye was a new military style Beach Boot Camp. So I immediately signed up. That was a few months ago. I went once and quickly forgot to come again. But then my partner asked me that "fun" question. And it has been irking me like no other. So I am at it again. To find that happy balance between my beloved work and life.

    Day One was grueling. I was just happy I showed up and being on time was the cherry on top. I was in bed doing my morning emails and almost gave into my crackberry addiction and didn't leave. But one of my last emails was something encouraging from one of the companies I worked with and that gave me the push to get out the door. At the camp I fantasized about making phone calls and responding to emails. Because in reality my body was screaming at me for spending so much time in a chair.

    Lets hope Day Two has a little more umph. But hey, at least I made it through Day One.
