Alright, you might be thinking “Mike has gone off the deep end with the Title of this note!”
Maybe I have…LOL! :-)

My Father said this to me a long time ago “Mike, make sure that when the check comes due, you can pay the Bill.”

I wasn’t sure what he meant. I didn’t have much money at the time, I was a teenager, so I asked him what he meant. ;-)

He told me that he meant eventually the check comes due with what you want in life. You want to be in a position to be able to pay the bill and get what you want.

I have thought about this allot over the years and I finally get what my Dad was getting at.

In life we all have things that we want. If we don’t make the proper preparations to achieve those goals, we will fall short. It doesn’t matter if its Fitness or Business, we all must all put ourselves in a position to take full advantage of Life’s opportunities when they come our way.

Sometimes that window of opportunity is very small and short lived. Sometimes life is about timing. One of my favorite quotes is “The harder I work, the luckier I get!”

In Business you have to work hard and be smart. You can’t sit back and hope for success. You need to go out and make it happen! PAY THE BILL!

With Fitness we “pay the bill” every time we do a workout that challenges us and we end up pushing harder than we thought we could. That is PAYING THE BILL both Physically and Mentally. INSANITY anyone? ;-)

Will you be prepared to “Pay the Bill, when the Fitness check comes due?”

All my best,

Mike
