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…

Today is Wednesday and always read what my friend Chad has to say or post. I really enjoyed this one today and want to share it with you all. It really works well with what we have been talking about this past week.
check it out
I hope you all have a great and healthy KRANKS-GIVING!!!!!
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.

Whats up everyone?
Today I’m going to be writing my goals down AGAIN.
I do this once a month for my 5 year and 10 year goals.
everyday I have my daily goals mapped out on my piece of paper.
And that’s the “secret”…make a workout program out of your life.
Track your progress vs your loss.
What time spent was beneficial and what was a waste?
i.e., waste: me stalking people on Facebook …hahaaha
Whats are you going to accomplish today? tomorrow? next week?
When do you want to finish it?
MAP OUT THE ULTIMATE PLAN and I’ll guarantee you will see the finish line.
Here’s a little vid I made a couple of months ago. But it’s that time again.
Goal time!

Word!
My bro and I always have a talk in the morning and this is what we talked about today.
Its all in about how you think.
Spread the word…comment and like
Thank you so much for following.
Just had a killer 2 classes at 5AM (the dedicated) and the 6 AM (same dedication)..They did work and had some new heads join the family..
Wanted to let everyone know that I am grateful.
Being grateful is empowering.
What are you grateful
I’m just ranting and listing off what I am grateful for…
Why don’t you try it out…
I felt amazing right after…
Its all about the little things that you are grateful for..
after doing this exercise I wanted to take on the world.
YOU HAVE TO DO IT OUTLOUD and WITH PASSION.
If its fake then it not worth it.
You have to get uncomfortable and F’ everyoe else right now
and appreciate everything you are happy with..
It s all about the little things and we ahve to remember that…
Time for me to kill it and have a awesome goal accomplishing day.
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….
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.
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.
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…
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.
I just came upon this killer blog about how our country is killing us.
As much as I love food and huge sizes and never ending braizlian BBQ.
This blog opens up my eyes with the statistics.
Crazy street man…check it out it will shock you.
Fuck we are a FAT country… www.bodyhobby.wordpress.com/2010/10/26/is-your-culture-killing-you/#comment-264
Whats up everyone!
I have to vlog about this movie
“The Social Network”
This movie was very inspirational and a great watch.
I would have never thought that kid did this much so we as a country would have the most addicting thing next to KRANK. 🙂
check it
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.
Just wanted to shout out someone else that lived the same life as I….
Just wanted to show you that its never over..
be sure to subscribe and thanks for follwing…
So I went to a seminar last weekend and looked deep into my soul to find out
“What makes me different than everyone else in this room?”
I searched and searched looking at different systems I train in, the use of tolls is us in my programs, even to the programs I use for my clients.
But I realize that everyone in this room has there special training tools or system.
So I started to think about WHY? I train people and why am I here in this seat?
Its becasue I have lived their life. I know and understand what its like to not be wanted, to be an outcast, to not be perfect.
I do what I do because I want to help people. I really do care about all of my clients and don’t want them to live the life I have.
In the video below is an introduction of what to expect: Honestly people this was the hardest and most uncomfortable feat I have evvvvvvver had to do.
To be honest I’ve been talking to the camera everyday and more stories come out that I have forgot about.
Subscribe to the youtube and blog. Keep on it. Thanks everyone…
