SoCal

This blog has had some serious neglection. I'm down in San Diego for a business convention. Somebody please pinch me. I need a reality check. All this is pretty hard to digest as I seem to have been catapulted into the clouds and it now seems like a dream. I can only be grateful.

As I recount all the steps I've taken thus far, it seems as though my journey has only begun. I'm on an amazing run. Another thing is I've had the most fascinating epiphany. After all is said and done about success and how to reach my goals and stay motivated, the motivation can run dry. Inspiration is key to everything in life. I needed a big WHY and I believe I have found mine. It's not a physical or monetary one, it's bigger than myself and larger than life. All this from talking, networking and mingling with people who have made it big. The key is simply keeping it simple and being willing to give back to a specific cause more than you can imagine. That way you'll find your WHY.

SoCal is beautiful and sunny. San Diego is a fine city. I'm staying in the Historic Gaslamp Quarter. This place is oozing with culture and vibrancy. Plenty construction is evidence of new money being splashed around at leisure for leisure. Plenty of restaurants, sidewalk cafes and bespoke coffee houses. There's a certain air of COOOOLness around. We took dinner on a yacht out in the bay. Warm, breezy, classy, so me! I discover and rediscover some of the finest spots on the planet.

I'm just happy and appreciative for the small blessings that this life has afforded me.
