Copy Cat Blog: 10 Honest Things about Me

I am currently suffering from bloggers block with images and words that float through my mind during the times of a day when I cannot write.  Like when I am counting reps for my clients or in a studio in front of 40 people trying to get them to align their bodies properly and to forget about what they can't do well and focus on what they can.  All of the stories come out in camp fire like tales when I am in session with a client who is curious about what it is like to be a trainer.  A trainer who gets to listen to the rantings  of all the overindulgent folks in a wealthy suburb.
So this entry idea came from a blog I am following.

10 honest things about yourself....

1) I am honestly not as patient as I appear when my clients tell me I am so kind when they can't get the simplest movement and I tell them it's ok. it's normal to forget what you did a minute ago.  I am usually thinking "Are you f*&!$ing kiddin' me?  I just did ten reps my self so that you could see it again and this is our third set!!"

2) I often fantasize about a different life in another state or country about 25 times a day... No agenda except for a ritual of watching sunsets into twilight(my favorite time of day) on the beach.

3) I regret never continuing to learn how to speak Italian and Spanish....

4)My two alter egos: 1)D.J. at an outrageous lounge.  2)Race Car Driver

5) The one thing I wish I could change about myself.... Fear, I wish I could eliminate it.

6) A lot of my nightmares consist of work.  Oversleeping and having a packed class waiting for me.  A crazy trainer trying to kill me.  Images of giant spreadsheets. Stuff like that is what haunts me in my hours of rest.

7)I love McDonald's, Taco Bell, and Cookies and eat them more often than a trainer should. 
The secret is: That most of us in the fitness industry either have horrible diets, don't work out, smoke cigarettes, drink excessively or have some other substance addiction.  The truth is, all of us have addictive personalities and are egocentric masochists.    Think about that the next time you reach in your pocket to throw a hundred bucks down for someone to motivate you to live a healthy life.

8)I miss dancing every day and  wish I could be on Dancing with the Stars.  

9)Secretly wish I could be the next trainer on the Biggest Loser.

10)Everyday that I wake up, I am grateful that I have a new day awaiting me.
