Running, Money, and Looking Good — My Real Goals This Year
Running was never just about the distance.
I'll be honest — for a long time I thought a goal was enough. Write it down, chase it, done. But something kept falling apart.
What I figured out (and it took longer than I'd like to admit) is that a goal without a deeper why is just a wish. And wishes don't get you out of bed at 5am. In this video I get into the two goals that actually changed how I train and how I think — one is about vanity (yes, how I look, and I'm not ashamed to say it), and the other is about turning something I genuinely love into something that earns a livelihood.
Not because money is the point, but because when what you love starts to matter to other people, that's a different kind of fuel entirely.
And Vanity ... well, looking good takes hard work and I've never had a goal in my life that is about the way I look. I've shied away from such things and have kinda been self deprecating. This year I'm making a vanity goal just as important as my health (running), my wealth (making money from something I love), and now — for the first time — happiness (how I actually look and feel in my own skin).
This is Part 2 of 2. If you haven't watched Part 1 yet, start there — this builds on it.
