Took a long break from my goals
Hello All,
I took a long break from my life goals because of what I call “work”. I am totally back into the swing of things. My goals have shifted along with my timeline.
I am taking this cycling class over at Kinetic Cycling over at Brentwood in the Los Angeles area and I am totally loving it. Along with cycling, I am also a member of gold’s gym. I am committed in completing a minium of two workouts a day. I have a 3 month goal to drop 30lbs pretty ambitious of me I know. It is totally doable though.
Another timeline, I am committed in having a full time sales career by June 25. I am in the process of applying to a hospitality sales manager position…wish me luck. The current job I am in is not panning out.

Sorry for being out of communication
August 19, 2010
A lot of things have been happening in my life that threw me off track my goal to a happy and healthy life.
First of all, I found that my father was diagnose with cancer a couple of months and that is the reason I stopped working out on p90x, gym, running, etc…. I got so depress that I stopped everything. After working through my depression, my best friend passed away two months after learning my father was diagnose. My best friend Kevin passed due to cancer. The same cancer my father has. Kevin has been battling cancer for about a year and half. Bad news after bad news spiraled me into darkness and i didnt know how to get out.
I’m tired of being in a dark, I’m tired of putting my life on hold, I’m tired of not achieve my goals.
It all begins anew. I’m back people….and I’m back with a purpse, a drive, and a passion to a magical life.
Regards,
CJ

Kenpo X
March 17, 2010
Happy St. Patrick’s.
Complete Kenpo X Day 24. I thought week 4 was a taper week, but I am completely sore once again. I really had to push hard today for Kenpo X. I thought I loved it, but now I hate it ;-). Probably because I was totally working it today. Great workout.

Oh Yeah
March 16, 2010
Core Synergistics. Great workout. First time I’ve done this section of the program and I loved it but it was challenging. I can feel my abs/core on fire. All I was thinking of while doing the exercise is that I am going to look great at the beach ;-). Just a thought that popped in my head. I’ve come a long way with the program.
I am declaring by tomorrow that I am going to bring it up a notch. Tomorrow’s workout is Kenpo X which I am a fan of. Almost one month completed ;-)…Fourth week. Day 23 complete.
Now I have to get ready for work and volunteering after work.

Q: Good luck on your journey - just "win" every day. The days quickly turn into weeks, and before you know it, the pounds are off. Just remember - NOTHING tastes as good as being in shape feels.
A:
Thanks bud. I’m half way their in what I wanted at the end of six month. Career check. Body still in progress ;-).
I appreciate the kind words and support. Means alot to me. Let me know what I can do to support you as well.

Out of Integrity and cleaning it up
March 15, 2010
9:37am
Hello Folks,
I’ve been out of integrity and now I am cleaning it up. I said I would blog after each workout and I think I missed two blog postings. I apologize for that. I didn’t miss the workouts though.
Day 22 complete. I am on my fourth week of the P90x and new workout routine for this week. I’m not that thrilled about this week 4 routine since I really dislike the Yoga X and I have to do it twice this week. I was okay doing it once a week but twice..the world is going to end.
Week 4:
Day 1 – Yoga X
Day 2 – Core Synergistics
Day 3 – Kenpo X
Day 4 – X Stretch
Day 5 – Core Synergistics
Day 6 – Yoga X
Day 7 – Rest or X StretchBtw..an update on that meeting that I had last week. I got the position. I start work today. Since I had committments for Monday, I told them I would go into work at 12:30pm and just do a half day. I’m wondering how I am going to fit in P90x now, before it was easy. Now, juggling a job, classes, p90x, dog care, etc…the list goes on. The only thing I can think of doing is creating an empowering context to help me through this schedule. So, the empowering context I am creating is that this is going to be exciting time and I am powerful and organize to do everything.

Magic and Miracles
March 11, 2010
9:44am
Howdy folks. Every morning I create how my day is going to be. This morning, I created Magic and Miracles with that being said, I had a call asking me to come in for an interview. What the other person said on the line, “let’s have a conversation and create opportunities for you in our company”. I am still trying to take everything in at the moment. My meeting/interview is going to be at 2:30pm and I will be creating my position with this company and what I want to do to be fulfilled. Wish me luck.
On the other note, today is Yoga X for me. Not my favorite part of the p90x but stuck through it. I notice that I am able to get my hands to touch the floor, that is an accomplishment. Day 18 complete.
For those who are doing P90x…keep charging….for those who are just starting…keep charging, you will see a difference in strength and flexibility. My experience for the first week is soreness ;-).
