Why is it so difficult to work on a project? I say project but I really mine my life direction. I mean it took me a year after competing my Fitness Specialist degree to take the ACE Personal Training Exam. Now I have various projects that I can't seem to keep up with. I'm bouncing all over the place instead of choosing one to get under way before picking up the next. I'm really writing this post for myself to sort out my thoughts and make a timeline for all of these projects I have in mind. If you are still reading this you are either bored or just interested in following my journey.
So what I really need to do is create a list of my projects and put them in order of priority. This is something I haven't actually done yet so here goes...
1. Choose a gym to train at
2. Start training.
3. Get website set up.
4. Create & upload 1 YouTube video each week.
5. Create & post 1 blog entry each week.
6. Get ACE Fitness Nutrition Certification.
7. Start a group on Meet-Up?
8. Create recipe ebooks.
Now that I am a Certified Personal Trainer it is time to focus on the reason WHY I became one, and that is to help as many people as possible. I can't do that unless I have somewhere to train people. I already work at the front desk of a gym but the problem is they don't offer many benefits. There is another local gym that give medical, dental and even offers 401K. No brainer, right?
After I official begin at a gym then I think I will feel more comfortable with the title of Personal Trainer. Right now I don't even feel like I have the title. Anyways I am in the process of getting my website set up. I want that to be completed ASAP so I can start some other projects on my own. Specifically the Meet-Up group and getting business cards made.
Creating YouTube videos and blog entries is something I want to continuously work on immediately but it will not be a huge focus until I begin working at a gym training people.
I have a huge passion for nutrition and it fits perfectly along with guiding people in their training. I love to find healthier ways of making foods that might not be so healthy. That is where I want the ebooks to come in. This is also something I can do over time as I experiment with recipes but again, not a main focus right now.
I could break down each one with steps of how to get each done. But I already know what I need to do and if I wrote it ALL down this would be way too long and it would guarantee that no one would read it. Is anyone still reading? Give it a +1 if you finished!! Now the real struggle is going to be staying on track with my fitness-future goals and balancing the rest of my life. If you have any tips on balancing all aspects of your life without going crazy please share below!
