It’s my 42nd Birthday today.

KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!!!

I’d like to sit here and say I have something cool planned today – like watching a Jason Bourne marathon, or, I don’t know, going to Sears – but, honestly, it’s just a normal Friday for me today.

Writing programs, writing this blog, training, and then maybe a celebratory pizza…;o)

Tomorrow, however, is the real show. My wife and I have a date at Del Frisco’s and then we’re going to go see Widows.

Holla.

Nonetheless, lets get to this week’s stuff to read (and don’t be afraid to send me a Happy B-day note).

BUT FIRST…CHECK THIS STUFF OUT

1. Complete Shoulder & Hip Blueprint 1.0 on Sale

Dean Somerset and I have placed our flagship resource – Complete Shoulder & Hip Blueprint 1.0 – on sale all this week at 60% off the regular price.

As if learning anything and everything about shoulders and hips wasn’t enough, I’m going to donate $5 of every sale (from my links) to a local animal shelter here in Boston called Kitty Connection.

This was the shelter my wife and I adopted out cat, Dagny, from when we first moved in together and I like to donate to their cause each year.

The sale only last though this Sunday (12/2), so act quickly.

Help save a kitty (or dog) – HERE.

STUFF TO READ WHILE YOU’RE PRETENDING TO WORK

Never Have “Bad Luck” Again – Nia Shanks

Regardless of the choices we face or the events that happen throughout the day, we have two lenses we can choose to view them from. In one hand is the lens that distorts events as being “bad luck” or “shit” or “unfortunate.” In the other hand is the lens that homes in on what has happened, what is — free from distortion or distraction — and gives us the power to glimpse and choose to see “beauty” or “good” or, at the very least, reality. Without any messy extrapolation.

^^^Applies to dieting and training.

The Truth About Stand Up Desks – Dr. Michael Stare

Well, that was interesting.
