Yesterday I did a couple of long walks.
I wanted to see if I could walk from my house (near the top of Lake Ave) to my barber. Walking to the barber was a little over 6 miles in 1 hr and 36 min, while the return (through Eaton Canyon) was about 6.5 miles and almost 2 hours.
It was a little personal challenge to see if I could just pick up and walk this distance. I’ve often said that my idea of fitness is being able to ask my body to do something and it responds by completing the request. Challenge complete.
So how does this relate to “keeping things simple”?
Needless to say, I had a lot of time to think. And if you know me, I wasn’t browsing social media or listening to music on this walk. I like to take in the present moment. As a matter of fact I had my phone turned off, and never took it out of my backpack.
For some reason, some clarity hit me on Valentine’s Day…and this walk just crystalized my “new” direction.
I want to be the best trainer and coach for my clients, period. I don’t want to spend time learning about the “next social media” platform. My focus is on providing the best results for my clients.
I believe that this relationship is between you (my client) and me. Not Facebook, not Instagram, not advertisers, cookies, or other distractions.
It’s pretty simple.
I hope you’ll join me here in zeroing in on your goals. (Comment below - I’ll see them and reply.)
