It’s a waiting game but I got speed reading to work on…

been a pretty crappy week thus far…I’ve  just sitting around waiting for a large commercial gym to finish their paperwork on me so I can start working and making money…uuuuugggghhhhhh!!! This is EXACTLY why I live for entrepreneurship. I do NOT like relying on other companies or other people for my financial certainty! And the “keep things simple” concept in business is harder to keep alive when you are the size of a commercial gym like 24 hour fitness. I was told by my fitness manger that I would be starting 10 days ago, and this crap has drug on and on and on….it’s not really his fault, per se, b/c he doesn’t have control of the “onboarding process” once he decides to bring a trainer on BUT I am not sure he truly understands how bad of a financial situation I am in right now and it seems like he could be doing more? I haven’t worked/made money for 6 weeks now…it’s getting extremely scary right now…

On a very positive note I have been reading like crazy this week and been reading some Awesome books!!! I finished 2 so far and have been working on my speed reading ability as well:) There is a speed reading software product I am using for free this month that I’ve been doing the speed reading exercises on. I will buy the full version once I start making money b/c it is limited in it’s ability to do stuff b/c I am using the “free” version. For example it gave me a score of 320 words a minute BUT I wasn’t told I was being tested so I read very slow and I can’t redo the test or any of the test b/c it’s the “intro/free version.” I would say I’m at 400 words a minute, but honestly I’m not sure? I’m looking forward to working at it so I can be at the 800-1,000 words a minute level:) The basic exercises I’ve been doing thus far have helped soooooooooo much!!! I am running through pages in my books and totally comprehending the information thanks to the speed reading exercises I am doing:)

My first job out of college was writing for a living, at a small community paper. I am getting the writing bug BIG time again. Writing this Blog has helped stoke that fire as well:) I am thinking about offering my writing services for free (at first) to some local community papers in the area:) Wanna start off doing small articles or “features” about Health and Fitness stuff and maybe some local Entrepreneurs, stuff I’m deeply interested in…I’m just spit balling ideas right now though. I absolutely have to start working and paying me bills ASAP though!!! I will update this bad boy with more info as I find out more about my personal training job…I do have a couple interviews set up this week and the beginning of next week already, so we’ll see. Thanks again for reading this puppy and please Pray for my financial/job situation:) Talk soon…
