“Some people dream of worthy accomplishments, while others stay awake and do them.” It only seemed fitting to write about a recent find in my fortune cookie because the biggest challenge we all face in life is to only dream about our goals, or the ability to take the necessary steps toward them. Lack of […]
The most financially successful people I have met had one common characteristic: they didn’t let the comments of those who didn’t believe in them affect their outlook. We are a generation which cares so much about how others view us, that we get lost in the shuffle of either wanting to be someone else, or

Passion for life is everything. Leverage what you love, and use it to help others. I find the hardest thing is meeting people that have so much ability, but don’t believe in themselves. Whether you believe it or not, you are destined to do amazing things. The longer we take to start attacking our challenges,

I get asked a lot about diet. Honestly, it is one of the greatest feelings to help someone reach a healthier lifestyle. A diet is useless. Losing 10 pounds for the beach in two weeks, only to gain 15 back a week after does not make any sense. If you’re considering losing weight, focus on

Running around the Point this morning, the sun glistened off the water as it rose about the Allegheny, warming my path as I did 1K fast repeats around Point State Park. It was chilly out, but I’ll take the cold every day for training if able as I love running when the temperature drops. I

A few short hours north of Pittsburgh, it is the perfect setting to have a marathon run and a marathon swim, back-to-back. Our decision to change the setting from California to Pennsylvania was based on

SUB-3² CHALLENGE ~Sub 3-hour road marathon, transition to a sub 3-hour marathon ocean swim. Brutal, yet simple~ http://dailynews.openwaterswimming.com/2014/11/something-so-easy-it-has-not-been-done.html I issue this challenge to the professional triathlon community because a charity race between two endurance athletes, mono-a-mono, would be an amazing way to not only push ourselves to the breaking point, but most importantly, create a
There is a certain amount of safety we relish about being comfortable. We fear leaving the ‘bubble’ and heading out into the unknown. There are those who blaze a trail without fear, without a distinct direction, because their path doesn’t have a road map. They want more out of life. In order to find what
We can’t expect to see the beauty of the world, when we struggle to see though negative ‘blindness’. It’s easy to put ourselves in a rut, and stay that way, because unfortunately that’s how a lot of the world operates. At church this past weekend, it was a blessing to hear the homily of Father
