We are inundated with information every day. "Information" comes with attitude, drama, problems, negativity, positivity, and emotions. How your CHOOSE to receive the information is up to you. Do you let it ruin your well being? Do you let it dictate your mood? Do you pass it on to others?  You get to determine what you let eat away at your energy. 

When things get hard.....JUST KEEP GOING.

Over the past 45 or so days I have experimented with the Meat Diet, or Carnivore diet. However, I have continued consuming alcohol and the occasional treat. The results have been interesting.  Here is a rundown of how it has been affecting me and my body. Enjoy!

What you FOCUS on GROWS, but you must make be INTENTIONAL with your actions. 

52 Mile Ultramarathon through the Black Hills of South Dakota.  Ultramarathons are not for most people.  They will test you and determine how far you are willing to push yourself.  Many sign-up, but never show up.  Many sign-up, but never finish.

When you start, it is not going to be pretty.  You can look the part, but you actually have to BE the part!

It is necessary that we get a humbled form time to time. It keeps us grounded and moving forward. You will never have it "figured out".  The more complacent and comfortable you get, the less you learn and grow!

We all have one. It is whether or not we decide to drop it, learn from it, or carry it with us.

Self negotiation = Self Sabotage. The more time you spend debating in your own head the more time you are losing and the less likely you will chase your dreams and goals. 

Imagine is Dr. Dre never "sold out." If you have a skill that people need, you should be monetizing it. If you never monetize your skill and value, the chances of it growing and evolving are slim. You are limiting your resources.

New Year's Resolution? Why are you waiting? You waiting and overthinking is why you will fail.

Bad things happen to good people. Good things happen to Bad people. AND vice versa. Stop playing the victim card. Stop teaching out kids to hold other people responsible for their success and/or failures. Create solutions to your trials. 

The Guru and Influencer space has exploded over the past couple years. The problem, most of them have not accomplished a thing in their life OR are trying to sell you the next best thing. There is NO next best thing. Pay close attention to who/ what you are investing your time into.

This is a topic that can be argued and justified from many different perspectives. It is important to note that hunting has changed over the last decade. Many look as hunting as nothing more than a sport. Many hunt to eat. Some hunt to kill.  Some hunt to be in nature. Whatever the reason, it is important to establish some Hunting Ethics for yourself and the generations that follow.

We have all been in a place where we feel stuck. 9/10 we are not stuck, but we are fearful of what may come if we do the "thing". Ask yourself this question when you are stuck, "What happens if I don't...."

This is a scary thought for many people. Bein alone for an extended period of time in their thoughts, their demons, not distractions to occupy their mind. This is where the work is done. The demons defeated, the ideas constructed, the power created, the YOU discovered.

How many times have you heard, "I can't, I am too busy." My guess it a lot and my next guess i that you have used it a great deal yourself.  Some use it as an excuse, but some are just think they are TOO BUSY. We are all busy, but most of us are inefficient. We do not handle our 24 hours very well and it cause stress, anxiety, depression, etc.
