I just got back from a fun little get-away vacation with my fam.

We went up north to Park Rapids, Minnesota where we had a nice spot next to a sandy beach on Long Lake.

It was an amazing time and I thoroughly enjoyed myself while spending a lot of high quality, focused time with my girls.

One of the things I’m most happy about?

The fact that I didn’t do one bit of work while I was there.

Years back you would have found me sneaking away to open my Mac book to “do work”.

I’d be writing workouts, sending emails, checking in on clients, and working on projects because I’d feel like I’d be falling behind.

If not that, I’d be freaking out about my nutrition and worrying about all the shit I was eating and drinking.

I’d be more stressed when I was supposed to be de-stressed so when I’d get home from our trip I’d feel like I needed a vacation from our vacation :-)

Not always the best time.

This trip was so much different from any other trip I’ve taken with my wife and daughters before.

I was fully present and relaxed the whole time (aside from when our daughters were fighting with each other)

Best of all, I didn’t do one bit of work and actually “vacationed”.

I ate what I wanted to eat and had a good amount of drinks and didn’t feel one bit guilty about it.

While I choose NOT to go completely overboard, I certainly indulged myself with ice cream, pizza, chips, etc…

Even though I was on vacation, I still made sure to get up early every morning before everyone else was awake to hit a quick bodyweight + kettlebell session outside next to the lake.

I knew if I didn’t get in any type of training it’d actually give me anxiety so I made it a priority and got it done first thing in the AM before the day actually started.

Plus waking up just as the sun was rising and getting in a great sweat in the great outdoors wasn’t something I wanted to miss.

I enjoyed my time 110%.

Why?

What was so different?

A few things...

#1 - Being and Living in the PRESENT

I didn’t allow myself to worry about “what I got to do when I get back home” or anything else that would pull me from my time with family.

I just thought about being in the moment and actually ENJOYING my time.

#2 - Embracing The JOURNEY

I’m committed to a process which I know is a journey.

A LIFELONG journey that’s going to have a lot of ups and some downs within it.

One weekend or even a week “off” isn’t going to destroy all of my hard-earned results.

It’s more so about the BIG PICTURE and the LIFESTYLE side of things.

All of the consistent hard work, effort, and focused time I put in on a day to day basis away from vacations, holidays, and even “bad days” is what matters most.

This is when the DISCIPLINE of it all truly pays off.

When you uncover how it all really works and you’re able to embrace it all as a LIFESTYLE, that’s when things really start to transform.

It’s about your habits and behaviors.

Forget about the quick fix tactics and tricks that guarantee they’ll save you from your shitty bad habits and behaviors.

They don’t work.

Forget about the gimmicks and fads that only create short term results you can’t even enjoy.

Start thinking about the BIG PICTURE and how you live on a day to day basis.

This is what the Forged FATHER PROJECT is all about...

Helping you create a LIFESTYLE that builds better fitness and health along with the balance needed to enjoy it all through better habits and behaviors.

If building a LIFESTYLE is something you know you need some help with and you’re ready to give up the bullshit and you’re committed to working for what you want, hit reply and we’ll have a chat.
