What’s up Goal Crushers-
I tried to write something motivational for the New Year but when I finished it didn’t seem natural. It didn’t feel like something that I wanted to hear. It didn’t feel right. So, I ripped those pages out of my journal and I decided to write from my heart. So here it goes…
The New Year is here but nothing has changed!!! No, you’re not caterpillar that broke out of its cocoon and turn into a butterfly overnight. You’re the same person you were last night (probably with a hangover).
The New Year is here but nothing has changed!!!

So, what’s my point?
Nothing is going to change until we change the way we think about time.
A couple weeks ago, I was at Target and I saw this hour glass.
I don’t know about you about you but something about hour glasses always resonated with me. To me it seems to be the most accurate representation of how time (and ultimately life) works. Time is not cyclical nor is it infinite. Time is finite and it’s the most valuable resource that we have. We can’t get time back just like we can’t get back that grain of sand that’s at the bottom of the hour glass. Once it’s gone, it’s gone.
So, what does that mean for you?
It means you’re getting older with every second and one day the sands in your “life” hour glass is going to run out. Unlike the hour glass we can’t make an estimation of the time we have left. With that said, I urge you to make the best of every moment that you have. If you want to start running, then lace up and go do it. If you want to beat your PR then train and do it. If you want to take a trip across the country then go and send me a postcard! What I’m trying to say is life is too short to be bullshitting, to be in your head, and to be talking about should of, could of, and would of…
Action!!!
Is the most important thing in life. Go do things that inspire you, make you happy, make you laugh, go help someone!!! Whatever you want do go do it now before it’s too late.
Here’s to getting shit done and crushing goals in 2019,
