My motivation to achieve completely ripped and chiseled abs has skyrocketed beyond anything that I’ve ever experienced before. You may have read a previous post that Angie did, “Make An Appointment For A Photo Shoot!” This is where my deep down, fire in my gut, goal driven desire has come from. The photo shoot is the trigger that’s putting me on the path of fulfilling my destiny. More on that in a minute…

I had heard a few fat loss experts mention how powerful it can be to schedule a photo shoot, but I guess that I brushed it off. Well not this time. Angie and I booked a photo shoot for April 2nd, 2008. We’re doing this together.

I set my goal of achieving 5% body fat. Currently I am 10% body fat as shown in the picture below.

I’m big into setting goals and all the components that go with mindset and I can honestly say that I have never been this psyched about my fat loss goals in all my life.

But it’s not just about the deadline and the accountability. There’s a lot of emotion and powerful reasons behind this photo shoot.

First and foremost Angie and I are role models for our children. We want them to see those pictures of us and say “WOW!”

Second we are role models to many other people. We are your average family but we take our health seriously. We have busy schedules and the typical stresses like everyone else and we want to prove that if we can do it so can you.

Plus we want to demonstrate the power of spousal support.

We are on a mission to reverse the obesity trend by 2015 and help 100,000 people create the vibrant healthy bodies that they deserve, and I am certain that our journey will spark the inspiration to get this movement going.

This is where my destiny comes in and I’m constantly planning it out. It all starts now. By December 31st 2008 it’s my goal to help 1,000 people completely transform their body and health.

This is where you come in. Because you will be one of those 1,000 people who create the body and health that you deserve, you will now be a member of the healthy high achievers behind me. And because of your efforts, success, and becoming a role model yourself, we will then increase in numbers up to 10,000 people who have successfully transformed their body and health by December 31st 2009.

By 2010 the efforts of myself and the 10,000 of you who stood up for yourself and claimed the lives that you deserve our numbers will grow to 100,000 vibrant, lean, and confident individuals who are make up this incredible group that will impact the world and reverse the obesity trend by 2015.

I hope that you’re with me on this. I can really use your help. That’s why I’m recommending that you book a photo shoot for yourself or even team up with a partner as Angie and I have.

Even if you aren’t going to be competing on stage, and even if your goal isn’t 5% body fat. I highly recommend that you schedule a photo shoot and capture the image of your vision of your own perfect body. This could be the motivation that triggers your destiny just as it has for me.

Pay the photographer in advance and prepare to look your absolute best.

Go for it!
