I just spent the weekend at Steve Maxwell\u2019s seminar. I spent $425 just to hang out with \u201cThe Man\u201d (and seriously, the dude kicks ass) but I knew I\u2019d get two things out of the seminar:<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t think I\u2019m able to listen to everything Steve says though I should probably start calling him something more respectful like, \u201cCoach\u201d because he deserves it. I have my own flawed life and my own life experiences and they don\u2019t match Steve\u2019s, like I don\u2019t do any combat sports and I don\u2019t want to. But he\u2019s got a lot to teach me even if some of the things are things that I just keep in my mind as things I don\u2019t, won\u2019t, or can\u2019t use. And no matter how much I can\u2019t use everything he says, it all is interesting and amusing to me.<\/p>\n
Two things that also occurred over the weekend are things that aren\u2019t horrible, but also aren\u2019t great. Early in the Saturday seminar I started hearing my phone making noise with text messages and phone calls. I am not a popular guy so I had to make sure it wasn\u2019t an emergency at home. There were several texts from Visa, asking if I\u2019d made a gas purchase on my card. When I replied, \u201cNo,\u201d they called me to clarify: “Had I been in the state of Georgia buying gasoline?\u201d Well of course not. That led to my cutting up my card before lunch, and having a sympathetic gym member buying me lunch. All I had besides gym paraphernalia was my phone, my driver license, and my credit card.<\/p>\n
I also found out that someone I went out with a couple of times found a new guy. I knew \u201cwe” weren\u2019t going anywhere (she told me that early on) but this still lets the air out of my balloon. The thing that makes me feel the worst is that she kept talking about her bad ex-boyfriends and all I could think is that I didn\u2019t even measure up to those guys.<\/p>\n
I suppose this gives me more time to get on my radio. I even talked to Azerbaijan yesterday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Something new that I could use. If not immediately applicable, I\u2019m sure I\u2019d get something I could think about incorporating into my workouts.
