John R Williams: Real Body Renovation Trip

Discoveries:

This week I discovered that real is my favorite adjective. I like real cooking with real ingredients, real talk and real people. This has helped me come to a realization. No really. The reality of me finding out that real is way better than phony is that I didn’t uncover this alone. Rather, it was a team effort. This week I got some real advice from my friend, some real laughs from my mom, some real serious pizza and real good pick-up games courtesy of Lifetime Fitness. It’s surreal how good I feel. I feel like one of those real estate agents on Bravo’s hit show Million Dollar Listing, no really. This week I landed deals, enjoyed good company and really enjoyed real. Maybe “real” is an acronym and it stands for: Reflective. Education. About. Life

High Points:

I’m getting my stripper body back. Hold it, I bet you’re probably there on the other side of your screen thinking “Was John ever a stripper?” OF COURSE NOT! It was a joke people, get over it. The phrase Stripper Body is synonymous with sexiness. Grant it many more things come to mind when I hear the word stripper but without a doubt you think of sexiness. No matter the gender strippers get a round of applause for their amazing bodies. It takes work to get those cuts and curves. I have no ambition to become a professional stripper but I do want to improve the condition and appearance of my body. Guess what? I’m well on my way.

Low Points

I haven’t taken a personal getaway in more than three years. The last time I can remember going out of town without the family to see another state involved some really bad circumstances. I think it’s time to live a little. I have been eyeballing a few weekends in the month of June that might accommodate my tourism bug. Honestly, I’m not looking for much, just a change of scenery and time to conceptualize my ideas. To be continued….

DAILY INSANITY:
Two Words: Work Space
My home recently underwent a major renovation. My drab burnt orange modern fusion home office was transformed into an art deco contemporary work space. The new oasis is filled with rich accents, electric blues, classy furniture placement and a rather bold artic white. The design itself was awesome but the end result was amazing especially since it was a do-it-yourself project.
