12 Things I Am Greateful For
Posted by Steve Hochman on Sat. Jul. 24th, 2010
Hey, Steve here and this last week has been pretty crazy.
Bedros and I just accepted 95 more of the most DOMINATING Fit Body Boot Camp owners and territories I've ever seen.
While all this was going on, I went on a five city tour to visit some of my top coaching clients in Texas, Delaware, New York and New Jersey.
It was an insane 4 day trip that included planes, trains, rental cars and taxis...
...And AWESOME interviews where my top coaching clients "spill the beans" about EXACTLY what they are doing to DOMINATE in their areas.
More on that in a minute...
Right now I want to thank and show my heart felt APPRECIATION for the people and things in my life that TOTALLY ROCK!
First, I want to thank my two girls Kayla and Riley.
I know they have no idea how happy they make me.
No matter what's going on, what inner battles I'm fighting, or what anyone thinks about me...
There they are, running to me with there arms open and huge smiles on their faces as they jump in my arms and say, "DADDY, DADDY, DADDY!"
Their little hugs cause all my emotional scars from the day to heal and recharge me in a way that only they can...
I'm grateful for my BBBBFF (best best best best friend forever) Bedros
until I met Bedros, I never had a best friend before.
I sort of just did my own thing.
But Bedros is like the brother I never had.
He's the funniest, smartest, coolest, wisest, most fun dudes I've ever met.
And how cool is it that we are also business partners.
Oh, and yes, some people joke like we are "more than friends" cuz we are so close... And guess what, I don't care, I wouldn't change a thing... And if I was the kind of guy that went out with dudes, I would definitely go out with Bedros cuz he's one good looking mofo...
So thank you Bedros 🙂
Speaking about not going out with dudes... I want to thank my wife Sy.
She loved me even when I was a pizza delivery dude.
And she believed in me so much, that she made me feel like I could do anything I dreamed of...
And that's exactly what I've been doing ever since.
Having the right spouse in your like makes such a difference.
So thank you Sy... I love you.
I appreciate all our amazing Fit Body Boot Camp owners
I didn't have a very close family growing up.
Fit Body Boot Camp feels like the big positive and loving family I never had.
I new Bedros and I were creating something special... And I knew it was the most powerful boot camp business model in the world...
But I never thought it would feel like a real family.
So thank you Fit Body Boot Camp.
I want to thank Apple
Apple products like my iphone and my mac make my like better.
They just get it.
It's like the dudes at apple are just smarter and cooler than everyone else.
At least once a day I say to myself, :I love my iphone."
So thanks Apple... You rock.
My business associate Sylvia
Much like apple, she is cool, smart and intuitive...
And she definitely makes my life WAY easier by doing all the business stuff that I absolutely hate doing.
For me, fitness marketing and helping Fit Body Boot Camp owners and my coaching clients is where it's at.
That's what I LOVE and am the most PASSIONATE about.
Sylvia does all the other stuff so I can focus on what I love...
So thank you Sylvia.
I am grateful for my Corvette
Ok, I'm sure your saying, "Dude, that's so lame."
But if you are, then you've never owned a Vett.
Let's face it, sometimes we all have to do some things that are boring, but when you can get there in your Vett, somehow it becomes more fun.
I love driving it so much, it even helps me get all my workouts in, cuz it's an excuse to drive...
I HIGHLY recommend that you buy a car that you LOVE.
Just get it... Trust me.
Ok, I'm like a little kid and proud of it 🙂
I'm grateful for my dog Plato (Pronounced Play-doe)
He never judges me, is always happy to see me and has taught me a huge life lesson.
Ya see dogs don't ever worry about anything.
They are always fully "in the moment"
They don't hold grudges either.
I don't know if this sounds weird, but if I'm stressed, I hug my dog and I feel better.
Hey, don;t judge me... My dog never does.
My assistant Ariel
I'm still not sure if she likes me or not...
It always seems like she's irritated or annoyed at me.
But, I can;t really blame her, I can be pretty hard to handle.
The bottom line is that she friggin ROCKS and is the BEST assistant I've ever had.
She GETS THINGS DONE.
So consistent and so reliable.
Thank you Ariel, you definitely improve my life!
I am grateful that I have the freedom to travel
It's so cool to be able to generate income ANYWHERE as long as I have an internet connection, my Mac and my iphone.
I mean, sometimes, I happen to generate the most revenue while I'm traveling or on vacation.
I never used to have that freedom when it was just ME training my clients...
It's definitely different then when I used to travel and know that my income stopped while I was away.
Having a business is whole lot better than owning a job.
I appreciate my coaching clients
Someone once asked me what I would do if I did not need to make money....
And my answer was help fitness professionals grow their business, have an amazing lifestyle and earn what they are really worth.
That's my passion, that's what I love, and that's what I do.
There are not too many people who can say they absolutely love what they do.
So thank YOU coaching clients, for making my life ROCK!
And I appreciate YOU, the Fit Pros who follow this blog
When I get a random email, or talk to a trainer who tells me that reading my blog has changed their life, or exploded their business or made it so their spouse could quit their job, it makes my feel AMAZING and more inspired that I can express with words.
So thank YOU... From the bottom of my heart.
And to say thanks, I'm going to share an interview I did with PFP mag editor Shelby Murphy.
In this video she details the step-by-step formula she used to get OTHER trainers to train her clients all while practically doubling her business.
Now she has the time to live and peruse her dream and passion of writing a book, and spending time with her family
