So last night was productive. We shot a lot of myfascial release videos with the roller (homemade mind you, if you want a cheap foam roller... go to home depot or lowes) and a tennis ball. We also shot conventional deadlifts, snatch grip deadlifts and speed deadlifts.
We'll see how they turn out today when Gordy comes down. We'll get them uploaded and edited... then put them on the site.
I also lit a fire under Gordy's butt with regards to the business. He's far, far from lazy. But I've done a good bit of the work so far. I have much more freedom during the week, so it's only logical. However, I made a new rule where each of us must do at least one thing per day. I don't care if it's as simple as writing down an idea to write about or implement in the future. You have to do something.
I also pulled out the notes from our very first meeting that was well over a year ago. Our first meeting about this company that is. It's amazing how precise we were. I told him... I'm not sure if it's destiny or whatever you want to call it.... but name one person you know who is as driven as you or I?
He couldn't.
So let's stay focused and make our dreams come true, I said. We are doing great and we're having fun, which is extremely important. However, I feel like if we're going to make it to the point we talk about (our facility and potent consultation business) we're going to have to kick it up a notch.
He agreed.
At the same time, we'll never treat this as a job. It's a lifestyle. It's a hobby. It's anything but work. Thankfully, even if we work 20 hours on our weekends, it doesn't feel like work. But we can't lose our flexibility and attitude. The perception. It's a fine line and I think we're doing a good job with it.
In other news, the weather sucks here right now. Humid and wet. Yuck.
