Happy New Years

Friend just posted this and I wanted to pass on...A well-known speaker started off his seminar holding up a $20.00 bill. In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would like this $20 bill?"


Hands started going up. He said, "I am going to give this $20 to one of you but first, let me do this." He proceeded to crumple up the $20 dollar bill. He then asked, "Who still wants it...?" Still the hands were... u............p in the air. "Well," he replied, "What if I do this?" And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. "Now, who still wants it?" Still the hands went into the air. "My friends, we have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth $20. Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value. Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless to those who DO LOVE you. The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE. You are special-Don't EVER forget it." If you do not pass this on, you may never know the lives it touches, the hurting hearts it speaks to, or the hope that it may bring. Count your blessings, not your problems.
I think that this message says a lot for those of us going through rough times, struggling with our self image, our weight and our physiques. That's why I posted this. This is all about YOU. YOU are the one accountable, you want the six-pack abs because its for YOU. YOU are amazing and that's what I love about you. 
So here's what to do now: Go to the tab up top that says :JOIN: and sign up- don't worry the account is free no strings attached. Sign up and let me help you. Inside you'll find a nearly limitless supply of resources, support, care and knowledge and together we WILL Succeed. 
Beachbody has a slogan: Decide, Commit, Succeed. You've already decided to make the change, make the difference. Sign up and COMMIT. The only natural step after that is to succeed... 
To my newest fitness freaks, to those who've struggled with me in the past:


Happy New Year.
