The Benefits of Sobriety and Why I Stopped Drinking

June 22, 2020 / / 2 Comments

I’ve been MIA for several weeks in order to make some very important changes in my life.

It’s very difficult to continue moving forward towards a life of prosperity if you don’t admit the necessary changes you need to make…..one of those changes for me was admitting that I had been a high functioning alcoholic for nearly a decade and that it was absolutely imperative for me to set my ego aside, be truthful with myself, and ask for help.

The past 30 days have brought a level of clarity that I couldn’t have imagined and my life has improved in every way possible. My wife has been extremely supportive in this endeavor and I don’t think I could have been successful without her support. Though traditional AA meetings have been virtually impossible because of covid-19, the one-on-one meetings and phone calls from the people from Alcoholics Anonymous has been crucial in this battle.

Escape Hell and Reclaim Your Soul

July 8, 2018 / / 4 Comments

I had slowly given away so many pieces of my soul working  there. Aspirations and passions were put aside and abandoned. Time with my family was lost and entire friendships fell into obscurity.

Toxic People

You Don’t Need Them

I have had a lot of ‘friends’ throughout my life who I now realize
weren’t really friends at all. I would do anything I could to help them out, but when I needed them, I would usually find myself very let down.

Looking back at those toxic people, I realized that they always seemed to acquire a different group of friends every couple of years. This was due to a continuous cycle of gaining someone’s trust, taking advantage of it, the friends catch on and get sick of it. Then they are forced to find someone new to prey on because they pushed everyone else away. Continue reading

Finding The Time To Workout

July 22, 2016 / / 0 Comments

An overwhelming amount of people have told me that they don’t have time to workout, lose weight, or get fit. Truth be told, no one has time to do it.

We live in an age where most people are busy as hell. Statistics have shown that Americans put in more hours per week than any other county in the world. 40% of the American work force puts in more than 50 hours per week.

What if you’re a family man? Continue reading
