Today I am throwing out a challenge to you.  Let’s do something soon that makes us feel uncomfortable.  Let’s find something that makes us a little nervous.  So many of us live in a level of comfort and we don’t do anything that makes us scared.  In order to grow, and I believe be fulfilled as a person, we need to get out of our little bubble of comfort.  I can’t tell you how many conversations and emails I have has with people giving me every excuse why they can’t do my DVDs or Fit Fun Bootcamp.  The one that gets me more upset than any other is “I have to get in shape before I come to bootcamp.”  That is like saying I need to have perfect teeth before I go to the dentist, or I need to have my finances in order before I see a financial planner.

Ok I will get off my soap box now.

I of course will never make a challenge here without also participating.  So what will I be doing?  I just signed up for the Fitness Modeling World Championships in Vegas.  Being up on stage without much clothes on in front of hundreds of people and possible millions watching on cable around the world makes me a little nervous.  But what makes me even more nervous is the 7 weeks before the contest I have a very crazy traveling schedule.  I will be going to Vegas, back home for a week, back to Vegas, back for a day, and then 5 days in NYC, back for a couple weeks and then back to Vegas for the show.  Trying to maintain a very strict diet does make me a little scared.  But there is no turning back!

Here is a video from 3 years ago, I really hope my stage presence is better than this!  ugghh
