Took a couple weeks off and lived a little life. Or life happened to me. Trips, funerals, other unplanned events makes a Trainer's life interesting. Sometimes life takes you places you were not expecting to go. They are good. They are bad. But no matter what, you get through them and still prosper!
All of us look at ourselves in terms of movies, songs, images, etc. We like to think we are in the show. Like there's a director guiding our every move and action. Every achievement we attain we are getting one step closer to the ultimate goal.
