Update to The Road to the PC Goal/Dealing with Adversity

Here's where I am at with the Road to the PC.

My plan was to actually go there on the week of March 15th.  I sold 25 out of the 50 and got some additional donations to the cause from quite a few of the Great DDPYOGA Family out there!

But, as with any road to a worthy goal, there are obstacles.  This month, it was unexpected expenses and family issues that came up.  

When these sort of things happen, there is always the tendency to either put it off to an unspecified date (which ends up never coming) or giving up altogether.  Personally, this has been the sort of thing that would get me into a downward spiral of being down on myself & withdrawn... saying that this is a Pie In The Sky sort of goal that is all but unreachable.  

However, I also thought three years ago that not being overweight or being a DDPYOGA Instructor was Pie In The Sky, as well.   

So... what am I going to do about it?

First: I'm taking a breath and Engaging in controlling what I can right now.

Second: I am Moving with Purpose & Inking a Goal to get to the DDPYOGA Performance Center by the week of June 15th (giving just enough wiggle room for a few days side of that).

Third: I am doing another run of my Own THIS Day T-Shirts, which you can find at the following link here.  The money that I have set aside from the first run of T-shirts will remain side aside until I can reach my goal.

Also, over the next few months, I will be running some of the Midwest Strong Silver Bullet Express workouts, which I had been doing through my YouTube Channel.  Those people that buy a T-shirt or contribute to the cause will be able to access those workouts.

I will also be doing other things to set aside money and make travel plans for Smyrna.  It's just that Family stuff comes first.  The good thing about this is that with the PC Trip being pushed out to June, now I can plan on my wife & son to join me on this journey.

When Life knocks you down, its what you do to Get Back Up that makes you Stronger!  

It all starts with Breathing an being willing to...

The Road to the PC Goal

By this point, you know its a Big Goal of mine to get to the DDPYOGA Performance Center in Smyrna, GA.  I want to use this trip to improve the way that I teach DDPYOGA and to get to work personally with Diamond Dallas Page, Christina Russell, Stevie Richards & all of the PC Crew! 

Since my parents & brother are live in Knoxville, TN, this is also a rare chance I get to see them in person rather that on Google Hangout.

So, to do that, I need to raise some additional fund to make the drive down there.  Along with scraping some money together, I'm also putting out a Booster T-Shirt Campaign with the #OwnTHISDay Logo.  The T-Shirt has the Four Steps to Own THIS Day (which you can read more about right HERE.)

I've had some great response the T-Shirt so far, but still have a ways to go.   As of this writing, 4 more sales will get the T-Shirts at least printed.  The Goal is 50 T-Shirts. 

There is also ways that you can donate to the cause, even if you don't want the T-Shirt.  

However, I've got to say that it is pretty sweet looking T-Shirt (in my humble opinion)!.

A HUGE Thank You to everyone that has contributed so far!  Your encouragement & belief in what I do is humbling, to say the least!

Remember, Campers:  No matter what Life throws in your path, you always have the Power to....
