3 Weeks Into 2010 ... How Are You Doing On Your Goals? Your Changes? Your New Life? Your Resolutions?

I'm noticing the gym is starting to thin-out ... this is the land where "MOST" GIVE UP -- Fastlane success demands that you CONTINUE ONWARD while everyone else falls off the wagon ... don't fall off the wagon!!! Don't be like "most"! Extraordinary living requires extraordinary measures that "most" will not do!!!

Turn 3 weeks of commitment into 3 months, 3 years, and a lifetime!
