Nothing...I try to better myself with knowledge and training skills constantly. There are different levels of "success" just as "success" is different in the eyes of the beholder.

At the moment it is a pinched nerve in my neck. I find myself holding onto it at least most of the day (if not rubbing it) and it has definitely slowed me down over the last 3 days.

My dog ....but I am having so much fun with him that I gladly forego reaching my full potential and thus just settle for 98 %.

There are certainly things that have hindering me reaching my goals. The death of my two brothers growing up, having a few major operations, and girl friends (two separate lifestyles) along the way have definitely interfered with my success. However, I have learned to embrace the loss of two loved ones, overcome the and operations, and rid the girls for more important things in life!

I would live in the gym if I could. My passion for physical health is actually what stops me sometimes from reaching my full fitness potential. Fitness isn't just about being physically healthy. Well-rounded social and personal lives are also just as important. I lose sight of that sometimes, and I have to back up and reevaluate my total health and get back on track. It's good to check in with reality every so often, haha. =)
That'll stop once you have the studio at your house :-)

My children! Don't get me wrong, I love them with every fiber of my being. They are wonderful little beings and I'm so glad that I get the opportunity to be a full-time mom and part-time trainer. But there are times when I wish I could spend more time training clients. My children are small right now (1yr, 2.5yrs and 6yrs) and they need more of my time. Eventually that will change as they all start school. So I train 3-5 clients 2-3 times a week right now. Hone my skills. Enhance my knowledge through CEUs and certifications. And enjoy the time I have with my clients and little ones. Make the most of what you have and plan for the future success!

Now I'm holding on to a set of crutches... Can this month get any worse? Maybe I'm holding on to my pride too tightly? Time to start asking for help instead of tackling so many projects at once by myself.

Same as Jocelyn, although I only have an almost 2 year old. I now run a free community group fitness event one night a week, do online coaching, and create virtual accountability groups. I'm hoping to get back to doing bootcamps and training soon, but I'll wait until my son is ready. The time with him is well worth the wait.
One of my new clients is being held back by fear of the unknown. What if she reaches her goal weight/health status and her "why" doesn't end up happening? Is it still worth it? It's a very tough mental block to break through, but we are working on it.

My virginity! I will graduate from NPTI in March with a certification in personal training and nutrition and still am unsure how to set pay scales and decide what I should charge for what I can provide. Then there is the other job(military) which prohibits us from promoting personal businesses at work. Last, is the availability of time. I am a father of three(7,5,3) and expecting a 4th(and final!!!!)
My plan is to slowly grow this into a viable business so that I am not obilgated to continue in federal service after military 'retirement' in 4 yrs. I am 38 and would like to pursue my own interest after giving 20 of my income earning years to Uncle Sam. Just some thoughts. Motivated, but looking for tips.

Just post a question here, and I am sure everybody will be happy to help with all the advice we can give.
