Values

My definition of success is:
To me success is having the ability to help as many people as possible, and give as much as you could ever possibly give to other people. You really can't attach a dollar vaule to that! Money comes and goes! What you do with it is what matters!
My purpose on earth is:
To give more than I have been given... (probably impossible, but an inspiring goal)
By the time I'm __, I will:
By the time I am 30, I will be financially independent and completely debt free, & driving the car of my dreams. (at least one of them anyways) =-D
My primary empowering question is:
"Don't simply retire from something; have something to retire to." ~ Harry Emerson Fosdick
If I just work at it, what can my life be like just a few years from now?
My top 5 values are:
Spirituality
Family Values
Friendships
Loyalty
Work Ethic
I am at my best when I am:
When I have a "team" of friends and family encouraging me to do my best, and teaming up with me to acheive our goals.

About Me

My Favorite Quote:
"Sometimes the greatest journey is the distance between two people." ~unknown

"I am a success today because I had a friend who believed in me and I didn't have the heart to let him down." ~Abraham Lincoln

"I am more afraid of being nothing, than I am of being hurt." ~Cole Trickle (Days of Thunder)

About Me:
Too much life to enjoy, not enough time to do it! Know what I mean? Working your life away just sucks! =-P Basically, I like to have fun, and it doesn't always matter what the activity is. I like the outdoors, physical activities, and just hanging out doing whatever my frineds are doing. I'm really into fitness/exercise, off-roading (dirbike, ATV, etc), movies, fast cars, music, cycling, swimming/beaches, sight-seeing... and the list goes on. Things I'd like to try, but haven't yet, include sky diving, scuba diving, racing (drag or road race), kayaking, white-water rafting, flying (private aircraft), and more.

I'm involved in business and personal development on the side, but the income generated from that has yet to surpass my ability to spend it. LOL

I'm really a nice guy. Probably "too nice" sometimes. Relationships are generally more important to me than activities. Yeah, I like to have fun, but the activities don't mean much if I don't have someone to do them with (although that won't neccesarily stop me).
I'd Like to Connect With:
Anybody who shares similar interests, goals, passions, or wants to help each other acheive them, Or simply enjoy them together!
My Passion:
Family & Friends, Church involvement, and my business, And memory-building FUN!! =-)
I Live To:
Bettter myself so that I can make a lasting impact on others.
Areas I Want to Improve:
Discipline, fitness, achieving personal goals, assertiveness... lots of areas.
"One who fails to continue learning & improving themself has already begun die a very slow death."

USMC Fitness plan continues...

May 12th, 2008
Haven't updated in awhile but I am still training to enter the USMC very soon. Looks like my ship date should be right around May 29th, but there is a little hang-up with my application so I am still waiting for official orders. Should have them any day now. Either that, or I won't be going at all...

Kinda nerver racking, them keeping me in suspense like this... 8o)

So anyway, I have continued my fitness program and have made allot of improvements. My last two run times have suffered for various reasons, but other than that I am doing well. I am confident my run times will be much quicker as I recover from a few minor setbacks.

So far my best 3-mile run is 21 minutes flat. I did this about a month and a half ago, but I have been having issues with shin-splints, so I haven't been running as much. Been keeping up with my cardio, so my fitness level has improved, I just have to re-develop some of those running muscles.

I tested 3 weeks ago with...
100 crunches = 100pts
17 pull-ups = 85pts
and 23:00 3-mile run = 70pts
TOTAL: 255

Not too shabby...

Just tested again last friday.
100 crunches (in one one minute) = 100 pts
19 pull-ups (just ONE short of "perfect") = 95 pts
24:05 3-mile run = 63pts
TOTAL: 258

Better, but I kinda screwed up my run time again. Fact is, I could make excuses for why my run time sucked, but it doesn't change my score, so lets just say I'll have to do better next time.

I have NO DOUBT I will max out my pull-ups before I ship and I should AT LEAST be able to get my run back to where it was (21 minutes). Possibly even a little quicker. If that is the case, then I should ship to OCS with a score of at least 280+!! Not a perfect score, but that would make me very happy! =oD

I'm just getting a bit anxious waiting for orders. Well, I suppose they will come soon enough. I have 3 weeks left until ship date. Let's keep our fingers crossed. 39;s keep our fingers crossed.
