A weekly journal of my journey
written candidly.

This week was a challenging one. Character building week. It was on Saturday as I was digesting my week that I realized there’s a metamorphosis happening in my professional and personal life at the same time. I’m surrounded by amazing people and I’m spending a ton of time working on myself and my approach to life. This is causing friction on both sides of my life.

This week was what I believe to be the most impactful National Automotive Dealers Association show of my career. When it comes down to a calendar full of meetings this was essentially the opposite. Instead, this trip was much more about organic development and a focus on key relationships and less noise. The trip began with a plane ride with one of our long-time clients but with the owners who I have spent very little time with. Once we got to Las Vegas it moved into having lunch together and then also dinner that evening.

I wear the following comment like a badge of honor lol. I get sick/ill approximately once a year… At most! Sometimes I go years without even getting a cold. Well, I got sick as hell in November, my once a year sickness, and this last week I broke the streak.

I spent this last week in Tahoe with my girlfriend Elizabeth celebrating our one year anniversary. It was time to snowboard and relax! I haven't snowboarded very much in the last 15 years so snowboarding with her for the first time was a real treat to say the least. The first thing that stuck out to me was how much I genuinely enjoyed supporting her on the mountain. I kept turning my head watching her and rooting her on. That meant a lot to me.
