Rugged Adventure

Adventure is tough to define.  Depending on the person, it can take on several different meanings.  To a little kid, adventure might be as simple as a walk in the back yard, while to an adult, it might be hiking the Grand Teton Mountains.  However you define it, it is important that we seek adventure whenever possible.

Routine, while important, can put us into a comfort zone and a lull that can be hard to break.  Adventure allows us to step out of our comfort zone, head on with adversity, and allows us to grow.  It is up to you what you make of your adventure, all I ask is that you truly embrace the adventure.  Step away from the cell phone, enjoy the moment, maybe snap a picture or two, but then dive right back into the face of it all.

Adventure to me is my lifeblood.  It takes on several forms, but mostly it is embraced through fishing and hunting.  I have many memories of hunting and fishing growing up and can truly attribute who I am today to those fond memories.  Adventure connected me to so many people and it helped to create a common ground for conversation and still does to this day.  I hope to share more of those adventures with you as time goes on.  I hope that you will find them entertaining and enlightening and most of all, I hope that they will open you to a new world to explore with others, especially your children if you have them.

Want to join me on my adventure?  Join me on my adventures through Facebook and Instagram! Through each of these means, you can not only join me on my adventures, but find out who I am following and getting my inspiration from and also find some cool giveaways in the near future.

Life Coaching: 4 Reasons Why You Should Consider It

Image
Life coaching can seem like an unnecessary added expense. For those who have and utilize it, it is a valuable tool that can help you get to the next level in your life. It can also mean the difference between being happy and miserable. A good life coach will help you work through a detailed life plan. They challenge you to think outside the box and deep within to determine what makes you happy, what you should be doing, and the steps you need to get from point a to b to z. For many, having a life coach can simply mean having someone there to affirm everything they have been doing and where they want to go.  Here are a few reasons why you might want to consider finding a coach. Feeling Unclear Let's be honest, sometimes life gets in the way and can leave us feeling murky or fog brained.  A life coach will help you clarify and gain a better understanding of where you are, whether you are happy, and what you need to do to get back on or stay on track.  Sometimes we just need s

Purpose of this Blog

"Adventure will show up wherever you look for it." Walt Disney No one ever remembers their best day of television, unless that day involves a game 7 walk off grand slam to steal the World Series. Television was in my house, but it wasn't a staple like it is today.  My mom would tell us go outside and don't come back 'til it's time for dinner.  I remember vividly an old pine tree in my grandma's yard that served as our fort.  Sometimes it served as home base for tag and sometimes it served as our own personal jungle gym.  Either way, it's a place that I will always hold near and dear to my heart.  Every child in the neighborhood new about that neighborhood and the sanctuary it provided if your parents were looking for you.   Summertime was another story. Early on in my life, my parents owned a 4 person pull behind that generated more memories than you could ever imagine.  Fishing trips, biking through campgrounds, and who could forget hunting

Refresh and Reset

Things have been a bit crazy lately, I've been working out like a mad man trying to lose some weight.  I was getting between 3 and 5 miles a day running in and then throwing in some p90x. Usually the p90x consisted of either Core Synergistics, Plyo X, Cardio X, or Kenpo. Things were going really well, I was feeling the energy come back into form and then life hit.  We were having some trees cut down and a couple of the trees fell on our fence. I was prepared to cut up and remove the trees myself, because this is what was agreed upon to help keep the costs down, but I was not prepared to have to fix the fence along with it.  No big deal though, I saw it as a fun challenge and an opportunity to get the boys involved.  While working on the fence though, I didn't realize one of my boys had grabbed a board with a large nail in it and placed it behind me.  When I turned around, it took several seconds to realize what had happened.  The nail didn't go the entire way through my foo
