In November of 2012, DVD Your Memories (now a multi-million dollar business) was sold. At the very end of my last day consulting for the new owner, I helped a guy named Chuck (this was highly unusual because I almost never work one-on-one with customers anymore, less than once a month). It was a pretty cool gift from the universe letting me know that things were in-tune.
From April through October 2013, I traveled through the US, much of Asia, Central Europe, and Central America, meeting up with friends in almost every country and having so much fun. I relocated to Davis, California when I got back not really knowing what to do with myself, so I starting exploring my interests.
My interests consisted mostly of golfing, yoga, eating healthy and visiting friends. Since I had no plan of what to do next with my life, I started to explore those interests. I started playing golf almost every weekday. And my golf game has improved from averaging mid to high 90's, to becoming a 14 handicap, even breaking 80 one time. I went to yoga class almost every day of the week as well. I enjoyed my yoga practice so much that I enrolled in a yoga teacher-training program. That was a great experience that really deepened my understanding of what yoga really is. Of course eating healthy I always have focused on because it makes my mind sharp, clear and my mood very good. I traveled to visit with friends and even had a wonderful girlfriend during most of this time.
After about 7 months of exploring my interests and having fun, I am now feeling like something is missing. This feeling is with me all day long. I can occupy my mind (golf, yoga, movies), but as soon as I stop, the feeling comes back. Up until now my life has been really simple because I always knew what I had to do. Decisions were easy. Now, when the number of things I can do with my life is infinite, deciding on something has become much more difficult.
This takes us to the present. My intention is for this blog to follow me on my journey of creating a new life and possibly a wholly new way of living. I hope that by making this blog public I will feel a greater sense of responsibility to embrace life outside of my own self-interests.
