Feelin It

I’m feeling an overwhelming sense of appreciation for the team we have developed here at The Daily Send. I have asked so much of each and every one of you to devote your time and energy to an idea. When you believe in something completely and put your soul into the foundation of that idea, something incredible happens. You witness the birth of something tangible.

This One’s For Me

I feel selfish for writing this. Normally I try to blog and tell you all about my training schedule or work life. This one comes from somewhere a little deeper. As many of you know financial trouble is not always simple and clear cut. As most of you know there always seems to be more piled of when you didn’t ask for it. I am no stranger to hard work. In fact, I’ve know hard work most of my life. As a child I used to get my toys impounded when I wouldn’t do my chores or homework. One by one my toys would be impounded and eventually I had all of my toys in the impound except my teddy bear. It took a long time to understand the importance of responsibility and just jumping through the hoops. I have long since developed the skills to do what is required to achieve a goal.  

The reason I decided to write this is that I am damn proud of myself. I work very hard to keep my energy level up. I have developed a zen like focus and have kept my nose to the grind with my eye on the prize.The amount of dedication invested in this dream has to be never ending. Meals are skipped, sleep is sacrificed, lights stay off and work is done on the phone to save as much energy as possible. There isn’t a moment when optimization slips. The focus is impenetrable. I have ignored the naysayers and removed “no” from my vocabulary. There isn’t an outcome in my brain where this dream isn’t fulfilled. You will always find that sacrificing any aspect of the dream is the death of the dream. If corners are cut on building your dream then your dream has not been fully realized. Why should I take no for an answer? If there is any part missing then the beauty is not there, the romance is absent and the dream becomes a mere mediocre thought. That is unsatisfactory. I will sacrifices my personal wants and needs and do what ever is necessary to accomplish this dream. 

For that, I am proud. For every ounce of passion within me I am going to make it. That is the dream. Let me take you with me. Where is the romance? Where is the imagination and potential I know is possible? Forgive me for feeling selfish, but I think this feeling is long overdue. Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t have your cake and eat it too. Make the cake, and if they don’t want you to have it, don’t share.

A Change is Gonna Come

It has been too long since my last blog post. This time I'm pleased to say it feels great to be this busy. I feel like a puppet master pulling the strings. Each one at the right moment, calculated and swift. I have been rearranging my schedule yet again. I believe that stagnation is the death of progress. We must always be changing and growing. I am currently looking to add a fourth job. I'm sitting at around 55 hour work weeks and looking to increase to 80 hours. I recently landed an awesome job teaching climbing at a parkour gym. I think this will be a great opportunity to share my passion for climbing in a foreign setting. I will be looking to start individual climbing lessons as well as coaching teams. Step by step growth is made. On the training side of things, I have been fighting through the pain in my abdomen. Scar tissue can be a real son of a bitch. I have my limitations with flexibility and I have been countering my conditioning with yoga and acro yoga. I have had some moments where I thought I was ripping muscle tissue apart and over time this pain went away. I'd just like to say if you are in recovery and struggling with hurdles just keep at it. Keep digging through the pain. As I continue my recovery and as I continue to build my business I can only listen to the encouragement from within. You can accomplish any goal you set. Break it down, practice and grow. Graydon
