Building a wall....
Not much of a title, but it is something I have not thought about for a long time. Most people think about stuff in terms of what they will have at the end of a search, but not what it actually takes to get there. I think that is where America has also lost its way in that people want the millions of dollars and they see all the people that have made millions of dollars not doing anything, but a red carpet whore and then bam they become wealthy.
How can someone do it without selling out their own soul. Well that is what the title is about. My dad had said the line you cannot begin to build a wall at the end of it and expect anything. you have to start with the first brick and then move onto the second and so forth. Well that is where I am at right now. I have reached a cross roads in that do I forgo my dream of competing and just get into shape or put my nose to the grindstone and make the commitment and do what is needed to make my dreams come true. Well brick one gets laid down tomorrow and then so on and so forth. I am going to have my dream come hell or high water.
What is your dream and how are you going to make it come true?

Get back up....
Well I know that the title is a little misleading, but hey it sounds good. As with everyone in the world even I have bad days and miss cardio or a workout (which is bad during contest prep). The thing I have to remind myself is that for the time being bodybuilding is just a hobby and not my paying gig.
I am having a couple of bad weeks in regards to training and cardio. My diet is still ok, but I've missed meals due to work. I've got to get my bodybuilding life back in order.
Went and saw Captain America today and behind Superman he is my favorite all time. Because he never forgot what it was like to be the little guy. He was humble and generous. Reminds me that I can be just as great if I just believe in myself.
To everyone out there please keep your head up high.
