The 3-2-1 workout is so named because it involves three cardio sessions, two circuit and one core workout.

*Complete Kate Beckinsale’s 3-2-1 workout. Watch her in Underworld for motivation.

SOUL

Carl Jung 1875

To strive to be good, and disregard one’s darkness, is to fall victim to the evil in ourselves whose existence we have denied. The ‘shadow’ is Jung’s term for the dark, unwanted, feared side of our personality.

The shadow personality can also be thought of as the unlived life.

This shadow is experienced as a foe, but it is really a friend because it contains clues as to what the individual lacks, rejects and distrusts.

*Turn toward your fears today – they contain clues as to what you lack, reject, and distrust. What is your “shadow” or unlived life?

MONEY

“We don’t like throwing computers away as soon as they don’t work… We like cars to be repaired instead of junked.”

*Have moves like Jagger – before tossing that computer, car, or home appliance, check whether it can be repaired.

ENTERTAINMENT

I was born in Northwestern Pennsylvania and lived in a trailer park. I was raised by very conservative and religious (Wesleyan Methodist) parents. By some miracle I graduated college and moved to Florida. I have been a public school teacher since 1995. I have 7 years until I can retire. I was married in 1999 and divorced in 2001. I remarried in 2017 to Kate - 21 years my junior. Some of my life experiences as a 46-year-old, white American male, will come through in my writing, but the majority of this daily journey will be dedicated to improving myself, and hopefully you as well.
