How Many things Can YOU do at Once?

I'm getting sick of dealing with my problem. I know it affects many people but I'm wondering if I truly suffer from a mental disorder. It may sound bad, but it really is not that bad. I've been told I have ADD by many people. I sometimes have no ability to focus.

So I had a very light day today, basically from 3pm til now, I've accomplished absolutely nothing. I didn't work out, I didn't finish any web pages, and I didn't study my Japanese. I'm just kind of aimlessly updating 3 websites and 2 blogs at the same time. All this while I'm bidding on an ebay auction, checking the results on UFC events, reading about yet another mall shooting, albeit this one was apparently a robbery attempt. I'm also thinking of acting on my major plan which is a secret!

I did talk to an old client of mine, now a father of a growing boy and a second kid in 3 weeks, congratulations BIG D. He is an expert computer programmer and we're planning on having lunch sometime next week to talk about venture capital and the software requirements and more stuff.

Last night I did publish all my temporary sites with links back to my up and running sites. AsktheTrainer.com which is my main site and HUGE project that I haven't started I am having trouble even starting. FitnessTrainerLIVE.com which was the domain I was going to use before I reached deep in my poor pockets and shelled out the cash to get askthetrainer. I also have AskaTrainerLIVE.com AsktheCPT.com & AskTheTrainerLIVE.com I haven't decided yet whether I will keep these domains, try to sell them, or just let them run out.

I didn't get a chance to workout today, I should say, I didn't workout today, which lately has become a recurring theme. I did walk from my Japanese class back home which took about 30 minutes, but I wouldn't call that cardio. I plan to go to bed earlier than usual tonight so I can get to the gym refreshed first thing in the morning tomorrow.

I did a great fitness tip of the day yesterday which I really want to leave on my site for a couple days. I definitely think I need many more images and videos on my sites to make them more user friendly. That is why I'm about to spring for a Canon HG10 HD HDD camcorder. I thought I bought one earlier in the week, but the company was selling a Chinese knock off and were out of stock. I got beat out on a bid on ebay earlier today for the same camera. Out of all the reviews I have read, it is my only choice. I think I will work on my San Francisco Personal Training website fitSF.com right now for a bit, or maybe take a nap before I start writing my article for an online website.

Any Venture Capitalists Read Personal Trainer Blogs ?

Nihongo kurasu wa ashita desu. Gozen Kuji kara go go juniji made desu. I just said, "Japanese class is tomorrow. It starts at 9am and ends at 12pm."

I should be studying for my quiz I have to take in the morning but I'm on hold again with my hosting. My hosting is luckyregister.com I think they have tremendous 24/7 customer service and a good price. What I found out, is there bunch of sites which are all godaddy.com sister sites, another which I bought a domain on is sugargodaddy.com

I bought the 3rd domain for my great idea which I hope I can parlay into a huge life changing business venture. What is holding me back? Well, all I am is a personal trainer with 3 domains, an idea, and a vision. I don't know where that leaves me, but I will try my best to figure out a way capitalize on it.

I have told only 1 person about my idea (not fitness related) and he is a Berkeley grad software designer or computer programmer, is there a difference? He thinks it is a good idea. I have emailed a couple venture capitalists and asked them where I stand. They contacted me back, but I will wait until Monday to call them. I should probably research a little more and do a business plan before I contact anybody. This is a problem because I am to a business plan what YOU are to the quadratus lumborum pelvic floor muscles.

personal trainer Constantly Learning, Promoting & Sitting on my Butt

Promoting a website is very time consuming. Starting off there is a lot of entering and re-entering your personal data. I have spent the last 3 hours submitting a single article to article directories. From my limited experience and knowledge I have learned that this is a great way to get your name out there. I haven't even worked on my website fitsf.com today. But I did post a link to my fitness icons page on Digg.com Hopefully people will like it.

I also have a paid article for a website I have to write by the beginning of next week. This is a huge challenge for me because I not only have to divulge a lot of information, I also have to keep the reader's attention and interest. My article is personal training related and since I'm a personal trainer and not a writer it will be very difficult for me.

All this website stuff is tremendously exciting for me. I can see a future of less work and more free time if I continue to get this web stuff going. The only problem is realistically it will take a year or two. At my current pace of spending hours in front of this computer and not getting paid but pennies, I risk the possibility of burnout.

Identifying this is part of the solution, but I know I have to act as well. I need to find some balance and it starts with exercising smart and eating less. I have been eating like a sumo lately with a friend in town and not exercising much. If I exercise intensely for short amounts of time, I shouldn't get too hungry. This will be good because my overall activity level is way down.

Maybe when the weather gets warm again I will start being more active but for now I need to tone down my diet and eat a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables and lean protein. I shouldn't eat out except for social situations. I have personal training today at 5 until 9 so I need to get to the gym within the next hour. Since I lifted weights yesterday I will do my 1st cardio session in almost a week today.

WORKOUT

Today I will focus on cardio. Since I haven't did any intense cardio in almost a week, I may take it easy. I have some Kanji (Japanese characters) I need to study for my Saturday morning class so I may choose to get on a machine and work at about 65% of my max heart rate.

I have been mentioning this in my blog very often. If your body is tired or not accustomed to an intense workout, progression is key. Start at a manageable measurable level on a cardio machine and complete your session. You can build on it and next time attempt a more difficult level.

Personal Training on a Rainy Day

I have 10 minutes to get to the gym and of course I'm procrastinating. I am heading there 15 minutes early because one of my clients comes early to do a little cardio before our session. It is good because it gives me some time to prepare some personal training sessions for later in the day.

Got done with all my training sessions and now I'm in writing mode. I'm trying to partition my time between my Japanese studies, writing articles, working on websites, and unfortunately a video game. I got back into this game on my PS3 called God of War II which is a mindless action game based on Greek Mythology. I'm a huge fan of Greek Mythology so when I play it and make progress, I can't stop.

I just finished submitting some articles to ezinearticles.com They are not my best work, but I looked at some of the other articles in the same field and compared to those mine are masterpieces. I will now look at a program that will submit the same articles to multiple websites. It will be a great way to get my name out there in cyberspace. I am still wondering if I should post my articles on fitSF.com or HealthandFitnessRx.com though.

WORKOUT

I had an hour break in between clients today. I spent the first 25 minutes doing some bench press and lat pulls along with seated rows. I just loaded 225 on the bar and did about 7 sets of 5 with little rest as possible. I supersetted those with different angle back exercises. I finished with a set of biceps and a set of triceps on dumbbells and cables respectively.

"Fine Dining" is Overrated! for the Personal Trainer

I may as well ad eating out to the list as well. After going to this restaurant Boulevard in the financial district I am sitting here writing somewhat disappointed. The place was nice and the food good, but I would say with 100% confidence it was not worth $100+ to eat it.

I would probably feel the same right now if I went to an Indian buffet, bloated, sleepy , tired, and painfully full. The difference is if I went to an Indian buffet I would not be a couple hundred dollars poorer. We Went for a birthday party so I think it's justified but I don't think I want to goto "fine dining" establishments unless it's a social thing. To me it is like spitting in the face of all the poor people.

Speaking of poor people, I learned something last night that made me bad. Every so often I see homeless people begging for money by trying to sell you this fake newspaper called the Street Sheet. I obviously scoffed at these people just as most people do to beggars in the streets here in San Francisco. I found out last night though that the paper is put out so it gives the homeless a quasi legitimate way to earn money.

From now on I will be sure to give the homeless people selling the Street Sheet a dollar or two. I will also spread the word about the Street Sheet to all my personal training clients.

Today is the 2nd to last day my friend Nuchie from NYC is in town. We are going to tour some sites around the city and maybe Marin county. I haven't been working on my blogs or web presence lately but a break is a good thing.

WORKOUT

I haven't been working out either very much, but a break sometimes can be a good thing.

Sleeping Patterns ALL JACKED UP

I just got back from my Japanese class about a hour or so ago. Another class where I was thoroughly confused but still love it. I learned more charachters and I pretty much aced a quiz that went over last weeks charachters which I just really studied this morning.

I actually went to sleep a little after 12 midnight last night. I woke up in the morning around 6 and couldn't go to back to sleep. It may have been my friend from NYC who I am picking up at the airport that stressed me out. Probably my dad who was in the emergency room last night the most.

He has lymphoma and has been undergoing chemotherapy for a few months. He developed a fever over 100 degrees so my mom brought him to the emergency room. They determined he had pneumonia and put him on antibiotics. I called him and he sounded like crap. I will go visit later when I go pick up my friend from the airport.

I have been thinking of ideas for my new website AskTheTrainer.com which is going though a domain transfer right now and have some pretty good ideas to increase its search engine rank as well as number of pages.

WORKOUT

Today I walked from Japantown to my apartment which took about 30 minutes. I don't think I will do any gym activities today because I don't feel up to it. Sometimes it is better just to not do anything or take a nap. Generally the next time you will have more energy and motivation.
