Happy Holidays and great health to all!! I have taken some time away to get realigned, refocused and recharged! I have gone through more "drama" this past year than I have in the past 48 years combined......WHEW!!
I am finally getting close to embarking on my new career....... close to getting my Xango business foundation formed properly............getting my personal transformation in line.......getting my perspective on reality back in order................
I am thankful for so much, grateful to have the special people in my life that truly make a difference, and have come to accept my reality of "being human" and all of the mistakes, lessons and growth that comes with it!!

Textbook Time!

This weekend signals the beginning of my next "chapter" in studying for my second personal training certification. Round one consists of a 675 page textbook, followed up by 3 video series and corresponding manuals for follow up! I am 500 pages into the textbook, finishing up Monday and getting into the video portion of my studying. I have always enjoyed "brain food", and I am getting a steady menu of it now.....what fun!! There's a whole lot to be said about acquired knowlege and new beginnings!!!

Live,laugh and love!

The Ability To Communicate!

How refreshing is it to have someone that you can talk to about anything? These people are very few and far between, and are to be cherished and never taken for granted!! When you think about it, simple communicating seems so easy, so simple, and yet so insanely difficult! What a paradigm! Are people hearing what you are saying, or what you are telling them? Is it really crystal clear, and if not, do they ask for clarification? Are things simply taken for face value, or maybe a bit overthought and misunderstood? Might we be reading too much into things at times?

All great things to ponder!! Live,laugh and love!

Back On Board!

Well, it seems as though I have been a little sloppy with my attention to my morning blog! It's time to get back on board and return to consistency. I have had way too much on my mind, for the first time in many years, and needed to process some things and find a direction. We have always taken for granted some very basic elements of our existence, and until you actually call yourself on it, you'll always simply shrug it off!! The "new" train is getting ready to leave the station.....Get On Board!! Live,laugh and love!! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen.com

A New Awakening!!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!! I am back from another trip, this time to Seattle for a dear friend and, as it turned out, some incredible self-evaluation that was incredibly awakening and powerful! Whew, I ripped off a calous that had covered some very fresh and tender skin, exposing some very deep and private feelings....another chapter in the emerging evolution of Michael J Weinstein! I have discovered some things that are going to require some diligent work and constant attention, but the new and deeply refreshing feelings already are sensational! My personal training and nutritional specialist certifications came through while I was away, so now it's time to acquire one more certification and get the new career established. Live,laugh and love.....each and every day!! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen.com

Happy Friday!

Good morning and a very Happy Friday to everyone! I have had a "crazy" last couple of days, the kind that really let you appreciate when things run smoothly and there's no DRAMA!! It's getting dealt with, and the attitude is back to where it should be......the IRS is something of and in itself!! The personal training studying is coming right along, and I think I might take the test next week before I leave for Texas!! I am looking forward to my new career and can't wait to see all of the progress and great rtesults that are sure to follow! Live, laugh and love! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen

Another month..........

As July winds down, it's always hard to believe how fast time continues to speed up! Remember our childhood, days went on forever and we didn't have a single care in the world. We can come full circle, and get our lives back to an existence very similiar to what we used to know....it involves a simplification and centering of ourselves and out lifestyle! What do we really need....are all those material possessions "needed"? If you find yourself feeling a bit "too consumed", then make a plan to do something about it! Living a simple, conscious, and balanced life is something that we all seem to overlook....but all so desperately need to enjoy and savor!! Live, laugh and love! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen.com

Here We Go!!

What an incredible day!! I just finished up a phone call with a company called Dynamic, Inc. They provide complete wellness programs to corporations throughout the US. I applied for a position as a corporate personal trainer/fitness advisor. The human resources department has recommended me for a position, and I am going to test for it and finalize the hiring process by mid-September! It's the perfect career change, perfect opportunity and perfect timing!! I could not be happier!! To your health! Live, laugh and love!! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen.com

Something is Brewing

Get ready.....something incredible is brewing, and I can feel it but still can't put my finger on it! Change is so welcomed and adored, never too spontaneous and usually kept a bit quiet. I relish in the fact that things have come full-circle, going from a very simple and planned existence, to a "let's go 100 miles per hour and work too much" attitude because we are totally absorbed in the monetary accumulation mode, back to simple and refined with an emphasis on being centered and totally balanced! Most can only dream about these transatory events, mcuh less actually commit to a conscious effort to implement them! Live, laugh and love.......and quit talking about it!! Just do it!! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen.com

More Fishing

Alright!! I have had a favorable response to my initial resume work, having received some followup by a couple companies! Today I spent a considerable amount of time creating an awareness regarding my edsire to coach soccer, sending my information out on a few sites that specialize in that. Tomorrow is followup day, MLM day, and new contact day! Remember, you never have to wish me "luck' because luck has nothing to do with anything that I do!! The Texas trip is scheduled for August 8-12.........yeehaw! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen.com

Rose Colored Glasses

Outstanding! The new cover letters and resumes are officially out, please check www.monster.com to view them! I have always been a huge proponet of change, but this new "evolution" of mine has truly captured my interest!! Contemplating a major career change after so many years, selling the new home, trying to envision a new living arrangement, and where is this process going to take me.....bring it on!! Things always seem to come full circle at some point, closing the gap between what was and what is.....that sounds pretty deep!! I am going full circle right back to a simplified lifestyle, not wanting to ever have to make a six-figure income just to survive!! Whew!! Live, laugh, and love!! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen.com

Fate and Destiny

We have all had something happen in our lives, an event, a chance meeting, a new relationship.....that seemed to just happen "out of the blue"! There just doesn't seem to be a rational explanation for it ( imagine hearing that from a guy) and it totally belies anything that has even a remote resemblance to something that actually makes sense! Hmmm..... Enter my 2 very dear friends, fate and destiny! Let's face it, the Universe works in it's own way, feeding off of our energies and aligning us with a person, event or situation that we need to introduce into our existence.......go with it, accept it and simply be grateful! I just love it, have never tried to question it, and am very fortunate enough to be experiencing it RIGHT NOW!! Remember, don't fight it.....simply accept it for what it is and what it brings into your life! Live, laugh and love! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen.com

The First Day of the Rest of....

I am anxious for today, getting started on my new path and revised direction of my existence! I will be sending off resumes, having my home viewed by a group of realtors, review and revise my workouts for the upcoming quarter, and cleaning up a few loose ends....finality and closure are wonderful things, as is change and a fresh outlook! Always try and take a regular inventory of your life, and make the necessary adjustments to ensure a peaceful and productive existence!! Live, laugh and love!!!! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen.com

Inquire Within

Happy Friday!! Well, it is time for a great and wonderful series of changes in my life! I have listed my custom home for sale, having lived in it for a very short 2 years. I am going to become a certified personal trainer, having an extensive knowledge of supplementation and exercise physiology after 30 years of intense workouts and incredible physical changes: I have gained almost 80 pounds of solid muscle and at the tender, young age of 49, I am in the best shape of my very physically active life. I am also a licensed soccer coach, having spent the last 4 years assisting 15 and 16 year old boys to better understand the game and everything else that is associated with a team environment. If you happen to know anyone looking for an exceptional individual with a very unselfish personality, a wealth of fitness knowledge and a true passion for "simply making a difference", please contact me at mtoofit@hotmail.com !! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen.com

A New Sheriff In Town

Here we go!! Today marks the official New Beginning! A new adjustment in overall life, attitude, expectations and environment. I am completely over the huge mortgage payment, the having to work to pay the overhead, the not taking time to smell the roses....free at last! I am readjusting my perspective on Xango, making it my retirement residual income as it should be, and lookng at the long term plan for building a HUGE network. I am selling the new home, saying adios to the crazy payment, taking the equity and getting back to a realistic existence. I am considering a move into personal training, furthering my coaching fascination and desire! Forget talking about the BIG CHANGE, let's do it!! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen.com

Commitment To Excellence

Another incredible day is brewing!! Yesterday the thermometer hit 99....coupled with a light breeze and zero humidity, it felt sensational!! I periodically pick up a motivational book as a refresher, and found myself browsing through the words of Vince Lombardi the other day. He still is the most profoundly straight forward motivator that I have ever seen! He makes reference to the quality of a persons life being directly related to the level of their commitment to excellence. I feel that there is no better description, nor barometer, for placing a measure on a persons relative worth! It also, in my eyes, tells me everything about that person that simple words cannot. It will always come back to the actions roaring over the relative whimper of words! Make a solid commitment to excellence, put a plan of action together and save your energy when it comes to talking about it......let your actions be your message and your call to action! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen.com

Getting Centered

A bright and very cheery Monday to all!! Today is going to be a day of some personal realignment! It's time to fine tune some personal issues and bring the rest of my year into focus....and get a handle on some possible life changing events! I guess it 's always nice to keep things planned out, although sometimes things don't always seem to be what they appear to be!! I am a huge fan of not leaving things to chance, as some like to refer to me......Mr. Black and White! I guess it comes with being an Aries!! Have an awesome day, and try and get a grip on your personal issues before chance tries to jump in and take over!! http://mtoofit.discovermangosteen.com

Turn Up The Intensity

Good Morning All!! I awoke to another stunning Montana morning, the fresh smell of mountain air and the chorus of birds radiating in my ears! Today I am tweaking my personal agenda just a bit.....I am making a conscious effort to increase the amount of intensity in both my business and personal arenas! Although it is almost magical living here, especially after 15 years in the metro-circus of Denver, Seattle and La Jolla, a person tends to become a bit"soft"! I am starting this morning by attacking a new and more high-octane workout, a new 4 week program that is guaranteed to shock my body into new and exciting results! Next, I am going to make some time to adjust my direct marketing agenda...a fresh new approach to jump start new business and revive the momentum of my excellent team! Have a super Sunday, and inject some new intensity into your life......live, love and laugh!

Keep Your Foot In The Firewall

Being the best you can possibly be is a very dynamic and evolving process. Keeping your finger on the pulse of continuous improvement is simply incredible! Finding out each and every day what lies ahead, what we can do individually to get a little bit better, how we can maintain that edge, and first and foremost what it means to stay on the offense!! Press that accelerator pedal to the floor, find out exactly how much horsepower you have, and then try and find some more!! Give yourself new brain food, new physical requirements, new challenges and new adventures! Find new love, new friends, new successes, new horizons, and capture the memories! Remember what it took to get to where we are currently at, and push that pedal down some more!! Break out!! Discover new limits and new boundaries....live, love, laugh and never linger!!
