Inspiration to an old sport…


Amazment is where I am right now.
I can’t fathom how many time these people have failed and failed agian and agian
and broken bones egos and souls
day by day they grind thestreets grass wood e
everything to one day showcase a series of tricks, movements, dardevilism.
Amazing
Fantastic
Bewildered
This sport always had a place in my heart and always loved the art, the science, the craft.

Here you have to fail fail fail in order to hit that one trick.

The bumps, bruises and broken bones don’t even compare to the feeling of euphoria when you finally hit that trick you’ve been working on.

Two words that change lives


I’ve had this talk with one of the Kranksters and the brotha called me upand just said “thank you”
“thank you”:  two of the simplest words that can go a long way.
The simple words that changed the mood I was in and let
me know that my purpose in life was real.
It’s not about the dollar or the fame that I’m in this line of career for .
It’s about the countless “thank yous”   that let you know u affected them in a good way.
Had anyone ever said thank you and you just ignored it?

Booooo

Or times that someone said thank you after you took the time to hold the door for them?
It felt good right?
So why don’t you reach out to someone today and say thank you.
Thank you for being a friend
Thank you for caring about me
Thank you for loving me
So on thus note I want to say

thank you, thank you, thanks to all of you for taking your time to follow me around and listen to what i have to talk about.
Be easy…

Black friday

So I’m in line at office depot on black Friday right now writing to you all.
Okay first off people are nuts and second off I was wrong about America.
They are selectively lazy!
Because to have this many people out to get a deal cmon!
Now why can’t you put this effort into other goals?
Fitness, monetary, competition…
If these craziees can wake up get outTa bed and make something happen to save a buck…
There is no difference in the efforts to change your life.
They are just misdirected.
Focus and direct this energy towards life And personal goals.
This fucking guy just pushed me…
Ohhh well little rant there…
These People definitely didn’t drink hard, went to bed early, and got up to go get it!
And I admire that push for this day.

But imagine if they applied this effort to something that would benefit them and make it consistent.
Man this world would be as crazy as this store with people getting what they want.
It’s all about consistent effort everyday to get what you want.
Just wanted to share this thought today.
I’m eating turkey with eggs for breakfast.
Finally outta line….
End point:

“IF YOU WANT IT…DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO TO GO GET IT! BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.

Kill the day!


You are what you hangout with…

I hope you all have a great and healthy KRANKS-GIVING!!!!!

Wednesdays with Chad
How Your Friends Impact Your Life

What would you say if I told you that your friends, your friend’s friends and your friend’s friend’s friends could impact how healthy you are? What about how successful you are? What about how happy you are?

Sounds ridiculous right? How could your friend’s friend’s friends negatively impact your life? Someone you don’t even know could right now be negatively impacting how successful or healthy or happy you are? Yeah, that does sounds foolish.

Well, it may not be so ridiculous after all. Dr. Nicholas Christakis has been studying health and social networks for years. Through his research he has discovered that if your friends are, for instance, overweight you are 45% more likely to be overweight. And if your friend’s friends are overweight you are 25% more likely to be overweight. And lastly, if your friend’s friend’s friends are overweight you are still 10% more likely to be overweight. It is not until you are four degrees separated in your social network that the people in your social network no longer have a direct effect on you. That is a pretty profound piece of information. One that you should consider not just in passing.

What you should be doing is evaluating your social network. How does it look? How many of your friends are healthy, successful and happy? How about your friend’s friends? How about your friend’s friend’s friends? I’ve talked about it before in previous posts about how the 5 people you spend the most time with will have the largest impact on your life. That probably still holds true but now you have to look a little further when choosing what social networks to belong to. Or, more importantly, who you let into your social network.

Recognize that not only do these people have this effect on you but you also have this effect on them. This does not mean that you can blame any misfortune you have on your friends or others in your social network. What this does mean is that you have a responsibility to yourself and to those in your social network to be the best you can be, so not only do you have a better life but those who are closest to you also reap those benefits. Ultimately, you will all prosper together.

Dr. Christakis brings up an interesting difference between American and European ways of thinking. When this study first came out headlines in American papers read something to the effect of, “Are you packing it on? Blame your fat friends!” whereas the headlines in Europe read, “Are your friends gaining weight? Perhaps you are to blame!”

Pretty interesting difference in thought process. I think its really a two way street and both statements have valid arguments. But do you really want to be one of those people who blames their misfortunes on others? If you do, stop it. Don’t adopt the American thought process. Adopt the European thought process. Be responsible. Make sure you are doing your best. But don’t feel bad that you also expect the best from your friends. Don’t be afraid to take steps to cut away the fat from your social network. After all, it could make the difference in your level of success, health and happiness.

If you’re interested in watching the full video it is below and will take an investment of 18 minutes of your time.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Chapter 12: I hated taking off my shirt

Hey everyone hope you are all enjoying the Sunday
Went out to the park today and talked about
Thoughts and fears about taking off my shirt in grade and highscool.

Be well
### Pete####


BELIEVE….(thats all)

So I went to see my boy’s New spot in Long Branch,NJ called REVERB.
if you’re in the area check it out son.
And then headed over to NYC to rekindle with an old stand up comedy friend.
And the discussion went a little like this….


The best around…


This move makes me jump outta my seat every time I see it.
Ever since I was a kid I loved this movie and how this song and montage made me feel.
The kid was a nobody in a new town and it was time for him to make some noise because he was tired of taking shit.
The gang of bullies kept rackin on him and beating the piss outta him.
Did he ever give up?
NO
Did he want to at times?
Yess
Did he succeed at the end?
Fuck yeah Crane KICK bitches!!!
This thing you have to notice is his work ethic.
He worked with Miagi day and night just doing the simple things and working the basics.
It’s not about the complex shit out there it always comes down to the real shit, the base. the basics.
“YOU’RE THE BEST AROUND”
Believe in that man.
Take those words home and embed them into your brain.
You have to believe it though.
I remember when I didn’t believe in it and just shit on myself.
I got down and depressed in the process because I didn’t believe I was the best around.
I believed I was just another kid….
and that what we are not.
We all have the potential to be great…
to be the best…
to be powerful beyond measure.
But its all gotta start at one place and that’s in your heart.
You have to believe it so bad that it bleeds off your chest.
you have to believe “You ar the best” so bad that
no one will question it.
you have to believe it so bad
That you BELIEVE IT!
Don’t try to CONVINCE yourself everyday that you are…thats a waste
BEEEELLLIEEEVEEEEEE THAT YOU ARE!!!!
What you think about most of the time is what comes true.
You are the best around people…
I believe you are…SO why don’t you?

What are you scared of? Oh yeah your scared of the success it might bring.

Psychological effects….

Sorry guys I had the wrong vid up just before that was for later on.

This is about the story when I realized that I needed help. I suffered through depression, bi polar issues, prescribed tons of medication that made me  person I didn’t want to be.

Paxil, Lithium, prozac….etc etc…

not a fun time…


Girlfriend…Whats that?

Girls was always an issue with me because I never had the confidence in asking girls out
I never saw myself as handsome or good-looking
So I never had the guts to do anything that involved rejection
Spin the bottle
7 minutes in heaven
My first kiss? What was that..
My kisses usually involved a girl with I was half was intoxicated
Because at least by that point if I were rejected I could blame the XXX
It became a front and I just got use to being “the friend”
and by that time I didn’t have the experience that most guys did at that time
so i felt insecure about that
one insecurity lead to another and another and another…

Letting go

What’s up everyone
Just ran out to downtown Jersey city to hang near the water this morning.
I look at the New York city and Remember the dream I once had.
I wanted to be a killer stand up comic
and travel around the country.
During that time I was still training people and slowly fell in
Love more with helping people.
Regardless I still make people laugh, but now I also make them feel good about themselves.
So here’s a little vlog of letting go a once big dream to reach the bigger one.


This is what I’m talking about

This is what I’m talking about
this little girl has got it right.
Wake up and see how you feel and don’t worry what other people think about you.


If you like mine….why not try…

Talking about alife turned around…
I am proud to say this is my family, my blood, my brother…
He has been through the shit taht most people are scraed of walking but will talk about.
These are his stories, his blood, his tears…

Be well everyone…


THE BIGGEST SECRET OF MY LIFE…..

Its released here for you all. I never told anyone this EVER!!! No one know this about me. But the only way be “me” is to let this out. Please forgive me because this was really hard for me to post.

Please comment and thanks everyone….
Pretty embarassed but I had to let this out for me to succeed.


Stop being scared…

You hear everyday someone say

” I wish I woulda”

and it makes me realize that I hear this way too often.

I’m not a fan of the I wish I woulda club

I hate having to feel that pain of, “I wish I woulda just talked to the girl. I shoulda just said hello”

“I wish I woulda just trained harder then I woulda won that match”

“I wish I woulda told her how I felt….”

This list is endless and it sucks because we are too scared….

But scared of what? rejection?

YES

failure?

YES

Success?

YES
I was talking to my friend last night he said something that stuck to me.

“Make all your mistakes now, makem’ fast, get them outta the way and learn to how to fix it.”

And that’s it. The only way we learn is to make mistakes and learn from them.

Lets stop being afraid because there are worse things that can happen.

I have been there too and still am.

There are thev100000 girls I wish I said hello to…

There are 10000 days I wish I trained harder….

there are 10000 of these situations that I have fucked up…

Lets make an agreement to NOT BE SCARED. You in? I am……

Good morning World!

Perfection?

Being the fat kid was not easy…

Although I led people to believe that I was cool with the mocking and fat jokes, I just rolled with the punches…

I just rolled with the laughter.

I decided to make jokes to humor people to distract them from reality.

I hid behind the laughs to mask the true feelings of hurt I had…

I loved my friends and still love them to death but

I never let them see me bleed.

I never let anyone really see me shed the tears and the blood of self induced pain.

I don’t want you to feel sorry for me here…

I’m just trying to tell my story…

The life of the laughing fat kid that cared.

Perfection! Why are we so tied up on looking perfect. Are the people that you believe are images of perfection, really perfect?
