Spartan Race – Seattle, WA 2019 Review
Last night we arrived back home after traveling to Seattle for the weekend to participate in the Seattle Spartan Race, located just north of Seattle in Snohomish, WA. This is my second Spartan Race and it was just as fun as my first Spartan Sprint Race in San Jose. This Spartan Super course was 8…
starimostIce Cold Shower [30 Day Challenge]
Today was my 31st consecutive shower…I’m pretty addicted to it. Back in December, I was reading a book called, “What Doesn’t Kill Us” by Scott Carney. I’ll have to do a separate book review on it, because it’s that good. I highly recommend it. He writes about an individual named, Wim Hof, who has scientifically…
2019 Will Be The Best Year Yet
Happy New Year, everyone! 2018 was a great year for me and the people I surround myself with. I’ve had some personal struggles that I had to overcome, but who doesn’t? I’m going into 2019 more confident than I’ve ever been about it being the best year yet. For both personal and business. I’ve been…
Unexpected News
Today started off good and I felt it was productive at work. I had some tea with my youngest before school and went off to the office. My business partner, Patrick, and I had great inspirational conversation which is pretty typical for us. We talked about the importance for saving for retirement and decided to…
Yerba Mate
Today’s the start of a new week. I’m pretty proud of myself for blogging everyday the past week and making it a priority. Sometimes it can be difficult, because when I start out, I am not exactly sure what to write about. I’m thinking that will change and become easier with time. I haven’t had…
30 Day Challenge
I had a late start to my morning routine this morning, but nonetheless, I got it done. I’ve been doing an Anxiety course on Headspace (meditation app) the last couple of days. I’ve never been a fan of taking medication for things that the body naturally experiences. I feel (and have proven to myself) that…
Day 4 – Transform Fitness App
Today is my birthday! Even though I’ve been taking it easy today, I still managed to get my daily routine in and stay on track with my meals. Usually on days that I don’t have Jiu Jitsu, I head to the gym to workout. I use an app called, “Transform” by Chris and Heidi Powell….
Day 3 – Wunderlist
Today, I began my second book for this month, called “The Bosnia List.” Rather than reading history books about past events, I prefer to learn about them in a story format. This book goes into detail about Bosnia, former Yugoslavia and the wars in the early 90s. I wanted to finish this book before going…
Day 2 – My Fitness Pal & My Meal Plan
Today started out good and I’m happy to report that I’ve been sticking to my meal plan and not cheating. Shellee and my daughter’s were making s’mores in our backyard, today…with Rolos (which is my favorite). I stood there and watched them eat and I didn’t even take a bite! At the time, my mind…
Day 1 – The Start
It’s been a couple weeks since returning from Croatia. During that time I’ve returned to my daily routine with work and life in general. I also took the time to get this Stari Most Bridge blog setup. The first couple of days, after returning home from an overseas trip, are a struggle. On the flight…
