couple of things

1. I'm in Houston for the next four days. Please pray that my clan is protected.
2. I close on my first investment property in Arlington on Thursday. Please pray that this goes well

I'm pretty pumped about hitting the gym hard again. I've neglected that and it has negatively impacted every other aspect of my world. I told myself several years ago that I would total elite in three lifts. So many distractions have sapped that goal from in front of me. It's amazing what one good conversation and half a bottle of vodka will jog in the memory banks. I set that goal in concrete then and I intend to obtain it now. I can't expect to build a successful business for my family if I can't even complete the personal goals that I set for myself. I love the fact, like in my business, that's it's going to be very difficult and challenging and most of the people around me will privately (if not openly) think that I'm going to fail. But dang! If it were easy and not so scary as shit, every gym in the world would have a line waiting at the door 24/7.

Bench press 400Lbs
Squat 600lbs
Pull 600lbs
1600lbs total in three lifts.

Then I'll take up marathoning. Or not.

Praying for you, bro. What're your lifts at presently? i thought you said you were around 1400 total. That right?

Pretty close. I'm sure I'm a bit under, but it shouldn't take long to get to a solid 1400

Yip. I'm officially a landlord. I have yet to decide if I will be evil or nice. Only time will tell.
