Hey Nino I hope you don’t mind…. that I’m a little early today! Gee my friend absolutely not as a matter of fact I was just about to call you, to see if you could come a little earlier today! Gee Nino I must have read your mind because here I am… in the flesh! Gee my friend you sure sound like to me, that your in a pretty good mood today!
Gee Nino you couldn’t be more right with that assumption…. because I have some great news to share with you! Nino I’m just so excited to tell you that I couldn’t wait to get here today, this is why I’m early! My friend does your news have to do with another one of those famous new diet’s that your on… that you want to tell me about?
Gee Nino that was good guess but I’m happy to say to you that it has absolutely nothing to do, with any of those famous diets that are out there today! Gee Nino I think after all the diets that I’ve tried to this point and got your personal opinion on, you finally made me realize that alot of the diets that are out there today are not what they say to be and they just don’t work! Gee my friend once again I’m so happy to hear you say that! My friend I really think that you have finally come to the realization that alot of these diets, that are out there today are mostly all “hype” to get you hooked on them!
Gee my friend now you got me curious! My friend if your news isn’t about a new diet that your on….. then what might your news be?? Ok Nino I just know that your going to be excited of what I’m about to tell you! Ok my friend would you please let the cat out of the bag on what the news is…. before I burst here! Gee my friend now you have me both curious and excited!
Ok Nino hold on to your hat…. because here it comes! Well Nino since we’ve been together we’ve discussed alot of topics that many people in our socitey today, are in desperate need of some help and guidance on in their lives! Nino would you tend to agree with me…. with that assumption? Gee my friend absolutely! My friend it’s like I’ve been telling you this is just the beginning because we’re going to continue, to help millions of people in our society today on discussing many more important topics that they are struggling with in their lives today!
My friend that being said….. are you still on board in helping me do that?
Oh Nino absolutely I wouldnt dream of leaving you now…. I’m having a blast with you here each and every week!
Great my friend because it’s like I’ve been telling you, you’ve become a huge asset to ”me” and God! My friend I’ll say it again to you which is simply this! My friend you’ve contributed so much to our mission so far that I know for a fact, that I wouldn’t be able to successfully complete this mission that God has “me” on without you! My friend furthermore this mission is the #1 goal that God want’s me to successfully complete, along with all the others that we’ve hit on so far!
Gee Nino it’s funny that you should be mentioning your goals because believe or not, that is the exciting news I want to tell you about today! My friend you now have my undivided attention because I have a strong feeling, that I’m really going to like the news that your about to tell me today! Actually my friend would you mind if I try to guess on what your news is…. before you spill the beans?
Gee Nino I wouldn’t have it any other way! Nino as a matter of fact I want to see if you’ve been paying attention so far today, because I already hinted on what my news is to you a few minutes ago! Gee my friend there you go again taking one of my lines that I usually give to you….. I’m really liking it! Ok my friend since you’ve already hinted to me on what your news is today, I’m going to have to assume then that it has something to do with acheiving goals!
My friend would it be safe for me to say that I’m right… with that assumption?
Gee Nino I sure can’t catch you off guard for one second because…. your absolutely right on target! Well Nino after being together with you for almost a year now, you’ve actually motivated me to start making some goals of my own now! Gee my friend that’s the best news I’ve heard from you…. since we’ve been together! My friend if you don’t mind me asking you…. what motivated you to want to set some goals for yourself?
Well Nino you can just say after we’ve discussed some of your goals so far that you have set to successfully accomplish with your mission, I just felt it was time for “me” to set some goals for myself as well! My friend I can’t begin to tell you how proud I am of you right now! My friend! If there’s anything that I could help you with in making sure that your goals are successfully accomplished…. please don’t hesitate to let me know!
Gee Nino we must be really getting to know each other lately with our mindsets because as a matter of fact, there is something that I wanted to ask you in regards to acheiving my goals!
Great my friend!
My good friend…. what would you like to ask me?
Well Nino it’s no surprise to anyone by now that your determined to accomplish each and every goal, that you’ve set so far in regards to your mission! My friend I couldn’t have said it better myself because….. your absolutely right again with that assumption! Furthermore my friend I will not stop until each one of my goals that God want’s me to accomplish… are successfully acheived without any excuses! Well Nino that being said I was wondering if I could ask you another favor today!
My friend please stop asking me for favors! My friend how many times do we have to go through this until you understand…. why God has brought us together! My friend a ”BIG” part of our mission together is to help you in any area’s of your life that you need help in today! Ok Nino I promise from now on I won’t ask you for anymore favors…. I’ll just ask you for your help!
My friend all I can say to that is….. thank you!!!
Ok my friend so what can I help you with today?
Well Nino I was wondering today if you could tell me what your secret has been in you successfully accomplishing, some of your goals that you’ve acheived so far in your life today?
Gee my friend you’ve successfully done it again!
Gee Nino let me guess hmm I believe I’ve just come up with our next topic of discussion today! My friend your absolutely right….. but you also did another thing!
Gee Nino what might that be?
Well my friend you just hit on another one of my important goals that God want’s me to accomplish successfully without any excuses! My friend God and I truly believe that there are many people in our society today, who are struggling with successfully acheiving their goals that they set for themselves!
So my friend that being said I have some great news for you today! My friend would you like to know what it is?
Gee Nino absolutely…. I’m all ears!
Great my friend because your ears are going to like in what I’m about to say! My friend I’m about to grant your request and tell you, how you can also successfully acheive your goals today that you’ve made for yourself without any excuses! Gee Nino this is great news and you can bet that I’m going to take your advice very seriously today, in helping me to successfully acheive my goals from start to finish… without any excuses as well!
Well my friend that being said I believe it’s time for me to share with you my secret that has helped me in successfully acheiving, some of my goals that I’ve set so far in my life today! My friend! I would strongly recommend that you get out your pen and pad once again because I’m about to share with you, three rules that I’ve made and followed to a tee that has helped me today in successfully acheiving all of my goals that I’ve set so far!
My friend I guarantee you if you also follow these three same rules I promise you that at the end of our discussion today, you will also successfully acheive your goals that you’ve made for yourself without any excuses just like I have done!
My friend that being said….. are you ready to start successfully acheiving all of your goals that you’ve made for yourself today?
Gee Nino I’ve been waiting a long time for this…. let’s start acheiving some goals!
Awesome my friend!
Here we go again!
Ok my friend! We’re not going to waste anymore time talking about how your going to achieve your goals today, because we’re going to jump right into “my” three rules right now! Gee Nino I better start writing…. huh! My friend I think that would be a very good idea because after I give you “my” three rules, to help you successfully acheive your goals you’ll have no excuses whatsoever to give me in why you can’t!
Ok my friend listen up because here comes rule #1 in helping you to acheive your goals successfully! Ok Nino go right ahead….. I’m listening and writing! Ok my friend rule #1 is keep your goals simple! Gee Nino if you don’t mind me asking you…… what do you mean by keeping my goals simple? My friend! I’m glad that you asked that question because God and I truly feel that this is one of the main reasons why, many people in our society today fall way short when it comes down to them completing all of their goals with success!
My friend what I mean by that is simply this! Well my friend it’s of no surprise to anyone today that we live in a society where people like to compete, with one another on certain things even when it comes down to setting personal goals! My friend would you tend to agree with me on that assumption? Gee Nino it’s funny that you should mention that because I would always try to out do my friends, and make my goals much tougher for me to complete successfully than they would! My friend if you don’t mind me asking by you making your goals much tougher than your friends, were you able to successfully complete them?
Gee Nino I have a strong feeling that your not going to be happy with answer! My friend only time will tell if that holds true! Ok Nino to answer your question I never was able to successfully complete any of my goals, because I just made them to tough for ”me” just to impress my friends! Well my friend I have news for you not anymore your not! Listen my friend! God does not want us to compete with one another when setting personal goals for ourselves today! My friend God wants to see us all successfully accomplish each goal that we set for ourseleves, but it sould only be done for “us” and absolutely for no one else!
Gee Nino I think I get the point that your trying to make to “me” here! My friend and what might that point be? Nino I should only set a goal that I know without any doubt whatsoever that I’m going to be able to complete successfully without any excuses! Furthermore Nino I should only want to successfully complete the goals that I’ve set for myself, for no one else but “me”! Gee my friend I couldn’t have said it any better myself…… well put!
Ok my friend that being said here comes rule #2…. are you ready?
Gee Nino absolutely…… I’m ready!
Ok my friend rule #2 in helping you to successfully acheive your goals is simply do not set time frames on your goals, when they should be completed! My friend I truly feel that this is another reason why many people in our society today fail to complete their goals successfully, because they feel that they need to accomplish them in a certain time frame that they put on themselves! Furthermore my friend when they see that their goals are not successfully completed at the specific time, that they set for themselves they get discouraged and quit trying!
Gee Nino I would have to agree with you on that because I have set time frames on my goals also, and when the deadline came and my goals weren’t completed…. I simply quit trying! Well my friend in case you’ve forgotton quitting is not an option for you anymore! Furthermore my friend what’s the big rush to have to complete your goals since you now know, that were not supposed to be competing with one another!
Gee Nino your absolutely right! Nino I have to say that I’m really learning alot from you today, in how I should go about in acheiving all of my goals that I’ve set for myself! Gee my friend I’m so glad to hear you say that but hang on, I still have one more rule to give you remember! Gee Nino I guess I’m get so excited to start successfully acheiving my goals the right way today ….. that I completely forgot!
Gee my friend don’t worry about it! My friend that being said I think we better get to “my” last rule today so you can start acheiving your goals today with success without any excuses! Gee Nino that sounds like a great idea! Gee my friend believe or not I’ve just given you rule #3! Gee Nino really…..what might that be? My friend! I was hoping that you would know it by now since we’ve been talking about it alot latley, which is simply “No Excuses”!
Listen my friend! I don’t think that this last rule needs much discussion at all since we’ve been talking about it, each and everyday that we’ve been together here! Gee Nino your absolutely right there is no need to discuss this rule any further, because I know what I have to do now!
Gee my friend and what might that be?
Gee Nino I think it’s quite simple! Nino I’m going to go home now to frame your three rules and hang them on my bedroom wall, and start implementing each one of them into each and everyone of my goals until they are successfully completed! Gee My friend now your talking my language once again…. let’s start successfully acheiving our goals together! Gee Nino I’m right behind you…. let’s go!
November 23rd, 2007
Hey my good friend it’s great to see you! My friend! I’ll be totally honest with you if it wasn’t for you meeting with me each week, I would be totally bored talking to myself! Gee Nino let me just say for the record if it wasn’t for you each week educating, motivating, and inspiring me, my life would be totally upside down and going in the wrong direction! Gee Nino thanks to you you’ve given me hope for my future, and a start at a brand new “me”!
My friend It’s like I’ve been telling you… time and time again! My friend don’t thank “me” I’m just the messenger here! My friend you should be thanking God for bringing me these very special people into my life, for making “Nino’s Mission” a reality not a dream! My friend! Let me just add by saying throughout my life there hasn’t been many people who would give me an opportunity, to be able to use the special gifts that God has given me to help other people until now!
Gee Nino let me just say you are definitely doing your job! Nino you’ve helped me and so many other people in our society so far, in alot of different areas in our lives that we’ve been struggling with! Futhermore Nino your taking the time to educate us each week on various things, that will help us in our lives today! Gee Nino and you’ve been doing it for us… absolutely free of charge! Nino unlike some people today who want to recieve something first, before they give out any information that might be of help to us today in our lives!
Well my friend! I believe I have the perfect response to give you here to sum up, everything that you just said to me! My friend would you like to hear it?? Gee Nino absolutely! Ok my friend I believe it goes something like this and I have a strong feeling, that you’ve heard it many times before throughout your life! My friend which is simply this…… it’s better today to give than to recieve! Gee Nino I definitely would have to agree with because that’s exactly, what you’ve been doing week after week! Well my friend you can be assured that’s what God, intends me to keep doing week after week here!
Well my friend that being said…. what do you say that we get, to our next topic of discussion today??
Gee Nino that sounds like a brilliant idea to me!
Nino so what are we going to discuss today?
Well my friend on the way here today I recieved another vibe from God in an area, that many kids in our society today are struggling to find a solution for in their lives! Gee Nino if you don’t mind me asking you…. what area might that be in? Well my friend I’m glad you asked, because it’s going to be the topic of our next discussion today! My friend the topic that God wants me to address to you today, is the ongoing rise of kids who are struggling with obesity in our society today!
Well my friend I believe God and I have come up with perfect solution, to drastically reduce the numbers in kids today who struggle with obesity! Well my friend that being said in my next blog I’m going to help our young kids today, come up with the solution to help them win their battle over obesity in their lives today!
My friend! What do you say we get going and give the youngsters in our society, my solution to fighting the battle of the bulge??
Yeah Nino! I’m definitely ready to help fight the battle of the bulge with you today!
Great my friend! Let’s get to the battlefield and rid obesity for good for our kids in our society today!
Here we go again!
My friend! Let me first say to you that there have been many critics out there today who have put all the blame on the kids, with their poor food choices being partly the reason why their becoming more obese today than ever before! Well my friend I strongly would have to disagree with those critics who say this today!
Gee Nino! If you don’t mind me saying but if the kids themselves are choosing to eat unhealthy today and their parents, are allowing them to how can you say its not their fault! My friend! Hold the phone a minute I’m not at all telling you that the kids and their parents, are totally out of the woods for being partly responsible for the increase in obesity in our society today!
My friend! I truly believe the majority of the blame should be put at our kids schools today for why they are becoming more obese! Gee Nino I don’t quite understand! Nino what do the schools have to do with the reason… why kids are becoming more obese today! Well my friend I have the perfect example to give you in why I feel this way!
My friend! I could remember back in the days when I was back in grade school, and I would buy my lunches almost everyday! Gee Nino I definitely would have to agree with you, because I would buy my lunches at school everyday as well! Gee my friend if you don’t me asking you! My friend among all the choices your cafeteria had for you to eat everyday…. what was your favorite? Gee Nino I didn’t have many choices to choose from of what I could eat everyday! Nino all my cafeteria had for me to eat were a choice between greasy hambugers, pizza, and french fries!
Gee Nino I think I get your point your trying to make to me here!
Great my friend! What might that point be?
Well Nino it seems to me that the schools today don’t give the kids, many choices to choose from in what they could eat for their lunches everyday! My friend your absolutely right because that’s exactly my point! My friend I have the perfect solution here to fix the problem!
My friend! Would you like to hear it??
Gee Nino absolutely!!
Ok my friend here it is! My friend first of all I think the schools today need to start cleaning up their act, and begin a more healthier approach to feeding our kids and get rid of all the junk food!
Gee Nino I give you alot a credit!
My friend why’s that??
Well Nino since we’ve been together your certainly not afraid to speak your mind, on certain things where other people might not totally agree with you on! My friend I don’t deserve any of the credit of what I’ve been trying, to do, week after week here you should be crediting God! My friend I’ll say it to you again! My friend I’m only doing what God wants me to do that’s help people in our society today, who are struggling with certain issues in their lives and are in need of some guidance on!
Ok my friend that being said once again…. let’s get back to our discussion! Well my friend as I was saying if the schools start promoting a more healhier way, of eating for our kids today! My friend I guarantee the kids are going to want to start eating more healthier, overall even when their at home! Gee Nino I recall you to telling me earlier that the kids and their parents were not totally out of the woods, of taking some of the responsibility of why obesity is on the incline today!
Gee my friend thanks for reminding me! My friend I truly believe in order for my solution to end obesity in our society today is to be successful, there also needs to be cooperation with the kids and their parents today! My friend so here’s my suggestion to both the kids and parents! My friend it’s no secret today that our kids spend way to much time watching television and playing video games in their free time!
Gee Nino I definitely would have to agree with you because my nephews, do the exact same thing everyday after school! Well my friend not anymore! My friend its time for the kids and parents to start taking some of the responsibility, and take action to help put an end to obesity in our society today! Gee Nino what do you suggest the soultion is here? Well my friend I believe it’s pretty simple! My friend I sincerely believe that a vast majority of the parents out their in our sociey will agree on my soluton!
My friend! Are you ready to hear how the kids can play a role in helping to end obesity in their lives today??
Gee Nino absolutely because my nephews, are also going to take part in the role!
Great my friend here it is!
Well my friend the solution is a no-brainer! My friend I truly feel if our kids spend less of their free time watching television and playing those video games today, and more time engaging in some form of physical activity today! My friend I truly believe obesity will begin to decline, for our kids in our society today! Listen my friend I’m not at all saying that the kids have to start weight training! My friend all I’m trying to encourage the kids to do is start doing some sort of physical activities today, that would get them up and moving instead of them sitting down!
My friend I’ll give you a few examples of what I’m talking about here! My friend for instance like playing basketball or baseball just about anything that will get the kids up and moving today! My friend here’s how the parents can help make this a success for their kids! My friend simply by parents taking part in these physical activities along wth their kids, so they both can start feeling better about themselves!
Listen my friend! I can only give you advice in how we can go about dealing with certain issues, in our society that many people are struggling with today! Gee Nino I totally understand and I know alot of the people out there in our society do also! Nino especially on today’s discussion on obesity! Nino I know your only trying to help come up with a solution not add more confusion!
My friend I appreciate you saying that because that’s all that God wants me to do here is help people not hurt them! My friend let me just end today by saying one more thing on obesity! Ok Nino I’m all ears lets hear it! Well my friend I truly feel in order to successfully put an end to obesity for our kids, in our society today this needs to happen! My friend everyone invloved as you found out today, needs to be on the same page….. No Excuses!!
September 21st, 2007
Gee my friend I was just about to call you, to see if you were coming today! Gee Nino I apologize for being thirty minutes late today! My friend don’t worry about it….. is everything ok with you?? Yeah Nino everything is fine! Nino I actually just came from the gym!
Gee my friend you must of really worked out hard today, because your all out of breath and your shirt is soaked! Gee my friend! I certainly hope that you’ve been drinking alot of water after your workouts, because you need to put back all the water that your body loses after an intense workout!
My Friend! Have you been drinking at least a gallon of water… daily throughout your day??
Gee Nino! I don’t think your going to be to happy with my answer to your question! Actually Nino I’m lucky if I drink one glass of water…. throughout my whole day! Gee Nino I have a feeling what I’m about to tell you next, is not going to make you to happy either! Well my friend! Since your on a roll so far today being absolutely right about me not being happy, with what your telling me you might as well be two for two today! Ok Nino here it comes! Nino I never drink water after my workouts!
Well friend! I certainly have to tip my hat off to you once again!
Gee Nino! Something tells me that I just came up with… our next topic of discussion today!
Well my friend you just made it three for three today, because your absolutely right with making that assumption! My friend before we even begin our discussion today on why it’s so important, to drink that water today I’m afraid I’m going to need to ask you one more question!
Gee Nino sure but before you do can I just say… one more thing to you!
Absolutely my friend go right ahead!
Ok Nino! Nino do you remember our topic of discussion last week, when I was giving you all the right answers to your questions! Gee my friend absolutely! My friend you were on a roll, I believe I even gave you a gold star if I recall as well! Yeah Nino you did but I have a feeling that I’m not going to be receiving, any gold stars from you this week!
Ok stop right there my friend!
Listen my friend! I certainly don’t expect you each week to come up with all the right answers, to the questions that I might ask you! Gee my friend! Just think if you gave me all the right answers to my questions, each and every week our mission would be over! I’ll be totally honest with you my friend! I actually like it when you don’t come up with all the right answers to my questions, because God want’s to make sure that you keep me doing my job! Which is simply my friend to continue to educate, motivate, and inspire you so you can also, teach others one day these same principles in their lives as well! My friend like I keep telling you over and over again, we’re in this mission together!
Gee Nino! Are you trying to make me feel better by telling me this?
Absolutely not my friend! I’m being totally honest with you!!
Gee Nino thanks I feel alot better now…. you can go ahead now and ask me your next question!
Great my friend!
Well my friend! If you haven’t been drinking water throughout your day…… what have you been drinking then? Gee Nino I’ve been drinking alot of diet soda and tons of orange juice! Gee Nino something tells me that’s not a good thing for me to be doing! My friend your absolutely right again! My friend that definitely is not a good thing for you to be drinking, all that soda and orange juice everyday!
Gee my friend! I’m surprised you don’t have a hole in your stomach by now, with all the acid and carbonation that you’ve been drinking! Well my friend! I have news for you that’s all about to come to an end because in my next blog, I’m going to tell to you why it’s so important for you to be drinking that water instead of all that acid and sugar!
Gee Nino I had a feeling that you were going to say that to me! Nino I also have a feeling that I’m about to be educated once again today!
Gee my friend your absolutely right again and you told me earlier, that you weren’t giving me any right answers today!
Ok that be said my friend!
Are you ready for your next lesson on why it’s so important, for you to be drinking that water??
Gee Nino I sure am! Nino I even have my pen and pad ready!
Great my friend!
Here we go once again!
Well my friend! Let me first start off today by commenting on something you said to me eariler, which was that you never drink water after your workouts! My friend am I correct by saying that? Yeah Nino your absolutely correct! Well my friend! I know for a fact for myself knowing how hard I train each and everyday and all the water that I lose, in the process if I didn’t immediately drink water after my workouts I would literally pass out!!
Gee my friend! I don’t know how you’ve been doing it! Gee Nino! What’s wrong with me drinking diet soda and orange juice after my workouts? Gee my friend haven’t you been paying attention today! Like I said all that acid is going to burn a hole right through your stomach! Furthermore my friend all that acid and sugar that you’ve been drinking is going to eat away, at your hard earned muscles that you’ve worked so hard to get! My friend! Did you know by you drinking that water it will help keep your muscles looking full, and also help increase your muscle size as well!
Gee Nino I had absolutely no idea that water will help increase my muscle size, and keep them looking full! Gee Nino this probably explains why my muscles have been looking quite flat lately! Well my friend I would have to say that’s a pretty safe assumption by you, I definitley would have to agree with you on that as well!
Ok my friend! If that didn’t convince you of the fact that you need to drink that water, maybe what I’m about to tell you next will! My friend! Did you know that by drinking water it can help decrease your bodyfat, and also flush out all the bad toxins in your system and keep it clean! Gee Nino I certainly didn’t know that either! Nino I think I’m starting to realize today, of how important drinking that water really is in my life!
Gee my friend! I’m glad to hear you say that but I have one more reason to tell you why drinking that water is so important in our lives! My friend I strongly believe this reason I’m about to give you, is going to make you want to go home and start drinking that gallon of water!
My friend! Are you ready to know the most important reason of all on why… you should be drinking that water??
Yeah Nino let me have it!
Ok my friend here it is!
My friend! Did you know that water plays an essential role in keeping our skin looking smooth and healthy! Furthermore my friend water will prevent our skin from drying out and cracking! Gee Nino this also probably explains why I’ve been using alot of moisturizer for my skin lately, because its been extremely dry and rough! Gee my friend your absolutely right again!
Well my friend! I certainly hope today that I was able to convince you of how important, a role of drinking that water plays in your life! Gee Nino are you kidding absolutely no question about it! Gee Nino I’ll say it again! Nino you know how to put things in the right context without being pushy, to where anybody would want to take your advice and follow your lead!
Oh Nino one more thing I’m going to go home now and get rid of all the diet soda and orange juice, that’s in my refrigerator and replace it with tons of bottled water!! Gee my friend once again your talking my language! My friend! What do you say I treat you to a refreshing ice cold bottle of water? Gee Nino now your talking my language let’s go!!
August 21st, 2007
Hey it’s great to see you back! How have things been my friend since we last saw each other?? Nino I guess things are going ok! Gee my friend that sure didn’t convince me at all that things are ok with you! My friend is there something on your mind again…. that you would like to talk to me about? Gee Nino you sure have gotton to know me well, since we’ve been together…. your starting to read my mind! Nino I guess I can’t really hide anything from you!
First of all my friend why would you want to hide, telling me anything that might be bothering you! Remember my friend my mission that God has me on is strictly, to help you with anything in your life that you might need some guidance on! So my friend now that being said again! Please tell me what’s on your mind? Gee Nino I’m sorry it’s just that you’ve helped me in alot of area’s so far in my life, and not forgetting my sister getting her off those diet pills!
Gee Nino I feel that I need to return the favor….. and help you with something!
My friend you have been helping me!
Gee Nino how have I been helping you??
My Friend the answer is pretty simple! Which is simply you sitting down with me each week in allowing me to discuss with you, these important topics that our society today are struggling with and need some guidance on!! Ok my friend I think I’ve said enough!
So my friend! Are you ready to tell me now what’s on your mind??
Yeah Nino!
Great! What is it?
Well Nino do you remember my friend that I told you about, that was in an car accident that left him permanently disabled! Yeah my friend! How’s he doing? Well Nino that’s the problem….. he’s not doing “anything”!! Gee my friend! What do you mean by not doing “anything”? Well Nino it was last week that I wanted to take him to the gym with me, to get him to start weight training with me! Ok my friend let me guess…. it didn’t go down to well with him!
Actually Nino your right again! Gee Nino I even took him to your website to read your story on you explaining why, you started to weight train and how it’s helped you tremendously both physically and mentally in your life! Nino I was hoping after he read your story, it would motivate him to start weight training with me! Gee Nino It would mean alot to me and his family, if you could try to convince and motivate him to start weight training!
My friend consider it done! Listen if anybody know’s the benefits that weight training, can have on a disability I believe it’s me! As you know my friend I’ve been asked alot of questions by people reguarding my disability! My friend here’s the question that seems to top this list! How I’m able to have such a positive attitude and outlook on my disability?? Well my friend my answer to them is simple! Ever since I started to weight train my attitude and outlook on my disability has completely changed!
Gee Nino if you don’t mind me asking! How has weight training changed your attitude in how you look at your disability?? Gee my friend do I need to remind you again! Ok I’ll give you a few examples! First competing in numberous bodybuilding contests! Oh that’s after being told by the critics out there that it was impossible, for me to compete in open classes and for that matter win! Let’s see my friend I have one more for you! When I set the State and National bench press record, after being told by the critics this time around that I was out of my league! Listen my friend the point that I’m trying to make here is simple! If I didn’t start to weight train and believe in myself there is no way, that I could have accomplished either one of these things in my life!
Gee Nino do you think you can motivate my friend to change his attitude… and get him to start hitting the weights?? Well my friend that’s exactly what I intend to do in my next blog! If you seriously think I’m the only person in the world who can weight train, with a physical disability and be successful… boy are you ever wrong! Believe or not their are many people out there like myself, who are weight training today with a certain physical disability!
Well my friend your about to be included along with many others, who are going to start weight training as well reguardless…. of what your disability might be!! My friend I’m going to tell you what you can expect to happen both physically and mentally to you if you begin to weight train! Let me just say my friend your going to have an entirely different, attitude in how you look at your disability as well! Oh my friend I almost forgot and also how society…. will look at your disability! Which is simply my friend in a positive way! My friend I know It’s something that your not used to but you better, start getting used to it from now on in your life!
My friend! The negative attitude on your disability stops now!!
Are you ready to start seeing the physical and mental benefits that weight training, can have on your disability in your life??
Yeah Nino!!
Here they come!!
Well first of all my friend! Let’s start with the physical benefits that your going to be seeing shall we! First with anybody who starts to weight train your going to see yourself, getting a whole lot stronger! Listen my friend I don’t care what your physical disability might be! Wether it be you confined to a wheel chair or walking with crutches like myself, you can still strengthen your muscles! There’s absolutely ”No Excuses” why you can’t! I have so what makes you any different than me……. absolutely ”Nothing”!!
Ok my friend! I see that you need a little more convincing….. how’s this one! Well the most significant physical benefit that your going to be seeing, is your body starting to transform into a lean mean fighting machine! Oh my friend and here is one thing your going to have to get used to, once that happens! Which is simply you receiving alot of compliments by people in how GREAT your physique is looking! Gee I don’t know about you but that would be all the motivation, I would need to start and keep on training!!
Gee Nino! I’m sorry but I’m still not convinced of the fact how weight training is going to help, boost my spirits in how I look at my disability! Well my friend I’m not in the least surprised that you would say this to me! Gee wait one minute my friend… don’t make up your mind just yet! I still have to discuss with you the mental benefits… your going to be seeing as well! I strongly believe my friend the mental benefits will be the deciding factor, to convince you to start weight training!
Well my friend once you start receiving all these compliments by people in how GREAT you look, then you can expect this to start happening! Would you like to know what it is my friend?? Gee Nino of course! I need all the convincing you can give me right now! My friend your going to start developing…. the very same attitude that I have today! Which is simply! “The I Can Do Anything Attitude” reguardless of how severe your disability might be! Like I’ve said to you before my friend! Just believe in yourself and your going to be amazed, what a little weight training can do for your self esteem!
Gee I almost forgot to mention to you the most important… mental benefit of them all!
Gee Nino what is it??
My friend I saved the best for last! Well once people start giving you compliments and patting you on the back, and say to you what an “inspiration” you are to them! My friend your response to them, is going to be the same one that I give them! Would you like to hear it?? Gee Nino! Do you even have to ask me….. of course I do! My friend your going to respond the very thing that I’ve been trying, to plant in your mind since day one of my mission! Which is simply these two words “No Excuses”!!
Gee Nino! Do you really think I can develop your same motto if I start weight training??
Believe or not my friend you’ve always had it you just have to start, putting it to use in your life! Listen my friend I can only try to encourage you to start weight training, and feel better about how you look at your disability! My friend I cannot force you to do something that you don’t want to do in your life, you have got to want to do it for yourself!
Listen my friend I’m going to leave you with one more thought for you to think about! Gee my friend wouldn’t it be nice for a change in your life, to see the positive benefits that your disability can bring you!! Oh not forgetting how other people will benefit from your NEW “No Excuse Atittude”!!
July 3rd, 2007
Hey my friend welcome back! I have to tell you how excited I am to see, how much we’ve been able to accomplish together so far since day one of my mission! Let me just tell you my mission wouldn’t be off to such a great start, if you didn’t allow me the opportunity to sit down with you each week to discuss all these important topics that we’ve covered so far! I certainly hope you will continue to allow me the opportunity to discuss, alot more topics with you! Like I’ve been telling you were in this together, this mission is as much yours as it is mine!!
Gee Nino I should be thanking you! Let me just tell you Nino since we’ve been together, you’ve completely changed my whole outlook and my attitude towards my life! Gee Nino I know you don’t want to be looked at as an inspiration…. but you’ve been that to me and others in ways that you cannot imagine!! Gee Nino when I think of quitting or make excuses of why I can’t do something, I think of you and all that you’ve overcome with your disability! Nino I wish I could say the same holds true for a friend of mine!
Actually Nino now that I’m on the subject, I was wondering if I could ask you a favor!Of course that’s why I’m here! We’ve been together long enough now for you to know you can ask me anything…. I hope you realize that by now! Yeah Nino I know! So what’s the favor??
Well Nino I have a friend who recently was involved in a car accident, that unfortunately has left him permanently disabled which has confined him to a wheelchair now! Nino I’m really concerned about him because he does nothing, to help himself also he blames God for what has happened to him!! Gee Nino I wish he would have your attitude and amazing drive…. to overcome his disability! Nino I even took him to your website, and he just puts his head down! Gee Nino it’s like he dosen’t want to listen to me… or anyone in his family who loves him! Nino it would mean alot to me and his family, if you could try to get through to him!
My friend you don’t even have to ask…. consider it done! Well beileve or not this happens to be another goal….. that God want’s me to accomplish as well! It’s also a huge part of my mission!! If anyone knows how it feels to be considered permanently disabled, because of an unfortunate accident it’s me! I’m here to tell you my good friend your not alone, their are many people out in today’s society who struggle with the same thing!
I’m here to tell you my friend and others simply this! No matter what the disability might be or how severe it might be, you can overcome the odds just like how I have! In my next blog my friend I’m going to teach you how not only how to overcome your disability… but be successful also in your life without any excuses!!
My friend are you ready for me to help change, your attitude about your disability??
It’s time to overcome my friend!
No more excuses!
Here we go!
Well let me first say my friend I use the word, disability very loosely in my life! It’s like I stated to you earlier in one of my previous blogs, we all have a disability in life wether it be visible to the human eye or not! That being said we all can overcome whatever the disability, there’s simply no excuse good enough why we can’t! I’ll be honest with you I didn’t think that was even possible for me at first either! Like I’ve been saying all along to you….. boy was I ever wrong! The person that made me realize that, was none other than God!
Yeah at first my friend I was also angry at God, asking him the same question that you’ve been asking him! Which was simply this! ” Why did you make this happen to me”! Well let me tell you my friend that’s the wrong question to ask God! Unfortunately there’s an old saying that we all know very well! Which is ”Things happen for a reason”! Well I had no choice but to figure out, what that reason was! So I simply asked God what was the reason for this! Well he sure gave me a strong enough reason why! God was going to use my disability to help you and others to understand, you still can be successful in life whatever the disability!!
Well my friend in case your wondering how God, is allowing me to show you and others…. how I’ve been able to be successful with my disability! Well it’s pretty simple my friend! Would you like to take a shot on what that might be?? My friend the answer is right in front of you…. through Nino’s Mission! Listen I don’t have to tell how I’ve been able to overcome my disability, it’s really no secret to anyone anymore! I’ve simply made “No Excuses” for myself! In case you need a refresher just go back and read my story, it’s all there my friend!
Listen my friend this particular goal is by far the most important one for me personally to accomplish successfully! I know all to well how it is and feels, to be classified as “permanently disabled”! I’m happy to say my friend I also know now how, to overcome a physical disability! Simply stated “No Excuses”!!
Just believe in yourself and ask God to show you the way, and you will be successful! I’m not telling you it’s going to be a walk in the park, there are going to be some bumps along the way! Gee God knows I’ve had my share, but I picked myself up each time and pressed on towards my goal! Well I have news for you my friend, you now have a new goal for yourself! To overcome your disability without any excuses! We will overcome together my friend…. you are not alone anymore!!
May 29th, 2007
Hey there you are! Your always the first one to arrive buddy… why so late? Well Nino I know the last time we were together…. you taught me how to have patience with Gods grace! Yep that’s right! So how’s that been going? Have you been finding that you have alot more patience…. than before our discussion! I’ll be totally honest with Nino…. it’s been just the opposite! That’s the main reason why I’m late today…. I’m thinking about quitting! Nino I’ve been really trying! Everything you’ve been trying to teach me… just doesn’t seem to be working for me! Nino I felt that I should tell you now…. before we go any further! Nino I just don’t want you to waste your time with me…. so this is going to be our last meeting together!
I truly can’t believe what I’m hearing! If you think for one one minute I’m going to allow you to sit here…. and to say to me that your throwing in the towel sorry it’s not going to happen! I have to hand it to you… your telling me that your quitting but you sure haven’t quit on one thing! Would you like to know… on what that might be?? I believe you’ve done it again! What did I do now Nino? It’s quite simple my friend…. the topic for our next discussion!
In my next blog I think it would be a wise idea… to get your notepad out again! Oh I also want you to have your eyes and ears wide open…. because this blog is going to be dedicated to you! Let’s see here…. so your telling me you want to quit! Ok so that means that I can quit too…. because it’s like I’ve been telling you were in this together! Oh I forgot there’s only one problem…. God won’t allow me to quit! Well that only tells me one thing…. your not quitting either! Well I don’t know about you… but I’m getting pretty tired talking about quitting! I think it’s time for me to give you…. some reasons to hang in there and don’t quit!!
Are you ready??
Ready or not…. here we go again!!
Well you know I’ll be honest with you… I’m glad were having this discussion on quitting! I truly feel our society is receiving way too high marks…. when it comes to quitting! Yeah you heard right my friend! This is actually one of those times…. I would like to see everyone fail and that includes you too!! Believe it or not this might shock you about me… but my marks on quitting were quite high for a good part of my childhood! Well those marks went down considerably…. when a person with great power and understanding came into my life! Would you like to take a guess…. on who that person might be?? Cum on I’ve been branging about him to you…. since the start of my mission! Well I see you have a blank look on your face…. let me help you out again! The one and only…. God the almighty!!
I believe God is telling me the best way to motivate you…. to stay in the game is to share with you a time when I wanted to quit on myself! I know that’s hard for you to believe… but it’s true! I can give you a good example… of how I almost quit! Well as you know after the surgeries on my legs were unsuccessful which unabled me to walk on my own…. I just wanted to quit living! Well there was just one person standing in my path from that becoming a reality…. God! Gee Nino everything you’ve been telling me about your life seems to include…. God to help you through the difficult times you’ve had!!
I honestly can’t believe what you just told me! It was just a minute ago… you wanted to quit on me! Do you know what you’ve just done for a second time today?? What now Nino? Well I’m about to tell you buddy! I believe you’ve taught yourself the very lesson… that I’ve been trying to get you to understand since the beginning of my mission! Which is simply this… we live and accomplish things to give glory to God!! Just think about it if you quit now do you honestly think….. you would be bringing God glory that he truly deserves!! I’ll tell you what you definitely would be bringing him…. nothing but sadness and disappointment!!
I definitely know for me… I wouldn’t want that on my conscience knowing that I quit on God! How about you?? Gee Nino I didn’t really think of it that way… I guess I was just thinking about myself! Well believe or not… I think you just taught yourself another lesson today! Which is simply this it’s never about us…. it’s all about God!! Here is something to think about! Always remember God sacrificed his life…. so we could have one! Gee Nino you sure know how to make a person… feel guilty about quitting! Well that’s exactly what I was hoping for…. is it working! Oh there’s one more thing! God never quits on you …. so why are you quitting on him!!
Listen I sincerely hope I was able to send you a clear message…. to stay in the game and not quit!! Well I’ll tell you if God isn’t a good enough reason for you to keep going…. you sure haven’t learned a thing on my motto! I think you need a refresher on what that is…. “No Excuses”!!
April 2nd, 2007
Hey buddy…. welcome back! How have things been going with your training? Let’s see if my memory serves me right I believe you were unsure… on the path to take the heavy or light weight approach! Well if I remember correctly we were able to come to an understanding… on the path you were going to start off on right! Yeah Nino… I’ve been sticking with your philosophy…. I guess it seems to be working for me! Gee that sure didn’t sound too convincing to me! What’s wrong?? Listen whatever is on your mind…. I’m here to help remember!
Well Nino it’s just that I’ve been working out so hard…. I just haven’t seen my body change at all! Nino and what makes it more frustrating for me, I have a friend who started at the same time I did…. and he’s gotten huge!! Well I guess there’s one thing I forgot to mention Nino…. he told me he’s experimenting with steroids!! Ok stop right there…. I think I’ve heard enough!
Let me tell you it’s truly amazing how everytime we get together…. you just give me an idea about what our next discussion is going to be on! I’ll be honest with you…. I was really hoping we could avoid talking about steroids… this early in my mission! The main reason is I didn’t want you to get side tracked…. and start to lose focus on what I’m trying to teach you! Well I guess now it can’t be avoided…. so we better deal with this now! Well I think you know what my next blog… is going to be about so let’s get going!
Here are my thoughts on the use of steroids!
Are you ready to be educated once again??
I truly hope you listen very closely because I truly believe….. this is major issue that our society is battling with today! I truly feel that steroids are being used by more professional athletes and teenagers today than ever before…. and it continues to be on the rise!! If that’s not bad enough…. even celebrities are getting into the act as well! The statistics are astounding to me…. and it just seems to be getting worse by the minute! This truly saddens me…. in how our society is dealing with this type of drug abuse!!
Well I hate to be the party crasher… but it’s going to be dealt with right now! Listen I don’t want you to be another statistic…. or anyone else for that matter! What kind of message are the professional athletes sending to their fans… who look up to them! I’ll tell you the message their sending! Instead of them using their gifts and talents God has blessed them with…. they use steroids to up their game! Well that definitely tells me one thing! These athletes have been doing the very thing…. that I’ve been teaching you not to do in your life!
Their making nothing but excuses…. which only allows me to believe they have absolutely no self confidence in their abilities!! What really bothers me the most…. they get paid millions of dollars to do what they do!! I truly believe them using steroids… isn’t written in their contract! Well I guess we all know… where all of their millions they receive are going towards!!
I sincerely feel that stiffer penalties need to be used… on these athletes who are caught using steroids! I definitley don’t agree with suspensions or fines…. gee it’s not like they can’t afford it! I truly feel the only solution to ending steroid use… in all professional sports today is very simple! Would you like to hear it?? Listen I’m not trying to be a poor sport…. they should be banned from playing ever again!! If you think I’m being unfair.. I think I’m being more than fair! Now that I think about it…. they should be thanking me for saving their lives!!
For these professional athletes who honestly think their invincible… from getting serious health problems or even death down the road their wrong!! I can easily give them an example of what I’m talking about! I don’t know if you remember a professional football player… back in the late seventies who’s name was Lyle Alzado! Well he was a big time steroid user he’s not anymore…. because he died from it!! Like I’ve been telling you God does not discriminate…. even when it comes to steroid use!!
I can honestly tell you God wasn’t kidding when he gave me the nickname…. “The No Excuse Natural Bodybuilder!! I can honestly look at myself in the mirror… and be proud of that nickname!! Well as your well aware by now I make no excuses and without a doubt…. I’m 100% drug-free! I definitely know for a fact God wouldn’t approve of me taking steroids… to help me acheive my level of success I’ve had so far! I honestly believe if I did take steroids…. God would have made me fail each time I did a contest! Oh one more thing my mission…. would be filled with excuses!!
Listen I sincerely hope that I was able to send… a clear message to you about using steroids to help increase your muscle growth! I have some advice for you to tell your friend… and by no means am I trying to make a joke of all this! There is absolutely no doubt that steroids is the way to go to gain incredible muscle growth…. but at the same time it’s making other areas of the body shriek in size!! I seriously don’t think I have to tell you… what parts I’m talking about!! I definitely know one thing I never have to be worried about anything shrieking…. on my body!! How about you??
March 19th, 2007
Hey it’s great to see you came back! I only say that because I didn’t think you would be back after our last meeting! If my memory serves me right I came down a little hard on you because you were procrastinating…. on starting your own training program! Wait a minute I can’t believe my eyes…. is that tuna salad your eating! Gee I take what I said back! I think you just needed a little wake-up call to get moving…. because it seems to me that your eating alot healthier also you look like you toned up! Well this only tells me one thing…. you can expect me to continue to be tough on you! Remember I’m here for you! I’ll do whatever it takes to get you moving in the right direction….. without any EXCUSES!!
Actually you remind me of some of my clients… I used to train in my personal training days! Gee I think you just helped me out….. on what our next discussion is going to be about! I’m going to share with you…. what motivated me into becoming a personal trainer! I know what your thinking… your thinking what alot of people have told me! There question to me was simply this …. Nino how can you be a personal trainer with your disability? It’s just impossible to imagine! I guess they were in for another huge surprise!
Well it’s like I told you before when I was repeatedly told by critics…. that I wouldn’t be able to compete in bodybuilding and be successful with my disability! Well if I recall they were wrong because I not only became successful…. but was then known as “The No Excuse Natural Bodybuilder”! Well God told me this was no different….. HE was going to now also make me known as “The No Excuse Personal Trainer”! Gee I felt in a strange way “special” that God has given me these nicknames…. not by any means did I want special treatment! I believe what God was telling me was simple! I was going to be successful in both categories without making excuses….. for my disability!
In my next blog…. I’m going to share with you how God helped me once again to acheive what many have told me impossible!! I’ll be totally honest with you I was getting sick and tired of hearing that word “IMPOSSIBLE”! I sincerely hope that this will inspire and motivate other people with disabilities… to start accomplishing things that they’ve been told by others to be impossible! Like you heard me say time and time again if you just believe in yourself and in God…. nothing is impossible! Ok I think you get my point so let’s get moving!
Are you ready?
Here’s how I got the nickname “The No Excuse Personal Trainer”!
Well I knew the first thing I had to do was to get my training certification…. I also knew that I was probably the only one taking the exam with a physical disability! On the day of the exam the instructor said to me….. Gee in all my years of giving this exam Nino your the first! I knew what he was getting at…. so I just told him those famous two words “No Excuses”! So I passed with flying colors….. next step was to get a job! Believe me I knew it wasn’t going to be that easy for me…. let’s face it there aren’t too many trainer’s out there with a physical disability who work at a gym! I mean who would have enough nerve to even try…… remember it’s just impossible to imagine!
Well what do you know as luck would have it…. a new gym was opening up where I lived looking for some trainers! So I decided to go and apply…. but I was not expecting what was about to happen when I walked through the doors! One of the owners standing at the front counter…. asked me how could he help me! I told him I was here to apply for the personal trainer position! I wish you could have seen his expression on his face… it was a look of shock! So I filled out the application and gave it to him…. but I wasn’t expecting what was coming next! I guess you can say it was my turn to be shocked! He asked me….. Nino when can you start?
Well the news quickly traveled that this new gym called “VISIONS” had a personal trainer named Nino…. that people just had to go and checkout!! Well your just going to be amazed of what I’m about to tell you next! I couldn’t believe my eyes… there were a line of members who were signing up with me to train them! I’m sorry but I just had to ask a client why “ME”! This was the response I got….. Nino I’ve been looking for a trainer like you for a long time! Nino I’ve been making tons of excuses why I don’t have time to workout! I look at you and you certainly made the time for yourself…. with definitely no room for any excuses! Can you help me achieve a “No Excuse” physique and attitude like you? I knew that God specialized me with tremendous skills in those two areas…. I was ready to start changing peoples lives!
So there you have it…. Gods reason for giving me the nickname “The “No Excuse” Personal Trainer! I strongly suggest that my critics go back and define the word “impossible” in the dictionary! I know how I would define it…. there is no such thing as “impossible” for me in my life! I sincerely hope that this message was extremely inspiring and motivational…. for my fellow disabled friends! I’ll be honest with you I don’t like using the word “disabled”!
Listen all it will keep you from doing …. is to stop you from living your life to the fullest! I certainly know one thing I know I have to this point…. and I’ll continue thanks to God! Don’t you think it’s about time you find out…. what you’ve been missing out on in your life!! Well I suggest that you start proving to your critics…. about how wrong they’ve been about what you can accomplish in your life with your disability!! I’ll make one thing clear to you! I use the word “disability” very loosely in my life…. and so should you without any excuses!!
February 25th, 2007
Hey how have things been going for you since the start of The New Year? I’ve been wanting to ask you how your resolution is going so far! If I recall you were going to start your own training regimen…. well how has that been going so far? Wait just one minute what is that your eating….. a Big Mac, large fries and a shake! Well I think you just answered my question in a big way…. in how your resolution has been going, it’s not! I sincerely hope that you have a good excuse for me…. remember their isn’t one good enough for me so let me hear it! Gee Nino I don’t have your will power! In reading your story it said…. that you blew up to 240lbs!! I’ve had one question that I’ve been dying to ask you Nino! How did you go about losing all that weight?
Well today must be your lucky day my friend! In my next blog…. I’m going to let the cat out of the bag and tell you the secret to my weight loss! Well I guess it won’t be a secret any longer… that’s ok because my mission is to help you.. remember? I will do what ever it takes to motivate you to finally start your resolution…. without anymore EXCUSES! Listen if I have to I’ll start telling you all my secrets to my success…just so you can finally start living your life in the way you should be with NO EXCUSES!! Well I think it’s time that you put down that Big Mac and listen closley! I have a strong feeling once I tell you my secret to my weight loss….. your not going to be eating Big Mac’s anymore!!
Are you ready??
Ok…. here we go!!
Well let me first say that it was extremely difficult for me to even think about how I was going to go about losing the weight! It was getting very difficult for me to carry all 240lbs on my crutches…. let alone being able to take care of myself! I know your probably wondering why I allowed myself to get at such a high weight! Well after the corrective surgery in attempting to straighten out my feet failed…. I became depressed! I felt the only solution was to eat everything in site!! Then I had a wake-up call my doctors told me if I didn’t lose weight… I was going to be placed in a wheel chair!
So that’s when the light bulb started to go off in my head! I knew I wasn’t going to allow myself to be confined to a wheel chair….. so I needed to take quick action!! I took a long look in the mirror…. and said good-bye to my 240lbs frame it’s time for a change! I also knew it was going to be a challenge for me to transform my body… with a disability!! Well as you know I just love to be challenged… even back then God planted those famous two words in me NO EXCUSES!!
Well are you ready for my secret??
Here it is!
Believe or not there is no secret…. you’ve known it all along since day one of my mission! Would you like to take a chance and tell me what it is? Ok let me help you out it should really be of no shock to you…. NO EXCUSES!! I knew what I had to do to change my lifestyle…. without making any EXCUSES about my situation! Listen I’m not trying to be funny here! If you thought I was going to tell something HUGE that would blow your mind….. sorry to have disappointed you! I simiply did what you’ve been putting off…. I started a workout program and drastically changed my eating habits and never looked back!
So there you have it…. my secret to my incredible weight loss!! Like I’ve said you’ve known it all along! I sincerely feel that our society today is hooked on the fact…. that they need to take the miracle pill to lose the weight! I’m sorry that’s just another excuse they have come up with…. instead of achieving it the old fashioned way!! Ok your probably wondering on what that is it’s simple….. do it the Nino way NO EXCUSES!! I think it’s time for you to put down that Big Mac….. and finally start your resolution!
Listen I’m not telling you it’s going to be easy…. you might have to break a sweat! I say it’s time to go for it because that’s the only way… I’ve gotten to where I am today by sweating my butt off!! Well it’s up to you!You can keep eating those Big Mac’s and hardening your arteries, or start hardening your muscles! I definitely know what I’ve chosen! How about you??
February 18th, 2007
Hey it’s GREAT to see YOU again! How are things going with YOU lately? I CERTAINLY hope YOUR answer is going to make MY day! YOU should be feeling like ME GREAT…. since NINO’S MISSION has arrived! Remember NO EXCUSES!! Let ME first go on the record to say I’ve noticed a little CHANGE in YOU…. and YOUR probably wondering on what that might be! Well I’m about to tell YOU… YOUR head is UP alot HIGHER than it was at the start of MY MISSION! I CERTAINLY wouldn’t want YOU to start thinking that I’ve SUCCESSFULLY completed MY MISSION!! Well even if I HAD… God would DEFINITELY tell ME the opposite, it’s ONLY just BEGUN!! Well before YOU pat YOURSELF on the back…. WE have ALOT more ground to cover! So what do you say…. WE get started on our NEXT discussion!
Are YOU ready?
OK…. here we go again!
Well as YOU now know… MY FAITH and TRUST in God is VERY strong! Like I’ve said over and over to YOU, I WOULDN”T be where I am today if it weren’t for HIM!! I guess YOU can go as far to say… God is MY one and ONLY idol that I look up to! GEE I’m so EXCITED I just let the cat out of the bag…. on what MY next blog is about! Who is Your Idol? I’ll give YOU some time to think about it… I’m going to EXPAND more on WHY God is MY only idol in life! I REALLY want YOU to listen CLOSELY… because I also want YOU to understand there’s NO comparison when it comes to GOD!
Well I can first go by saying… God has created with his OWN human hands the EARTH and ALL living things! I don’t know ANYONE else who has done that… do YOU? OK maybe YOUR not impressed by that ONE! I think this ONE might convice YOU… HE can MOVE moutains and PART the sea’s with a BLINK of an EYE! When is the last time YOU heard Arnold Schwarzenegger do that! LISTEN I can go on and on with this…. the message I’m trying to get across to YOU is quite SIMPLE! There is ABSOULUTLEY NO living being ABOVE GOD….. HE’S in a class ALL by HIMSELF!! If YOU know ANYONE who is ABOVE God, I DEFINITLEY would like to meet this SUPER HUMAN! Good luck on YOUR search…. because there is NO ONE GREATER than GOD!
It’s that time again!

Who is YOUR Idol?
Listen YOU shouldn’t really have a tough time….giving ME an answer this time around! I GET IT your probably STILL idolizing those professional athletes, who CAN’T stop talking about how GREAT they are! GEE I hate to break it to BOTH of YOU….GOD has allowed THEM such status! Make NO mistake GOD can TAKE ALL their GREATNESS away…..with a snap of a finger! I tell YOU what DON’T take MY word for it …WHY NO ONE is above GOD I challenge YOU to read THE HOLY BIBLE!! I promise YOU there are SEVERAL times, where the word IDOL is mentioned! YOU will see for YOURSELF GOD is the ONE and ONLY idol….YOU should have in life! If YOU read further YOU’LL see what happens to those people, who put themselves ABOVE God! Let ME just say the END result is NOT good!
Listen I’m NOT at all telling YOU….who YOU should be idolizing! I KNOW from MY own personal experience, since I’ve put God FIRST in MY life it’s been an UNBELIEVABLE ride so far!! I REALLY want YOU to start EXPERIENCING that same ride, because once YOUR on….. there’s NO getting off! I DEFINITELY feel that YOU should NOT be patting YOURSELF, on the BACK just yet!! I STRONGLY suggest to YOU stop making EXCUSES, for why YOUR NOT putting God at the TOP! Do I have to keep reminding YOU of the FACT… that it’s because of God SACRIFICING his life so YOU can have ONE!! How can YOU NOT put God as YOUR ONE and ONLY idol after that! I DEFINITELY don’t know ANYONE who would be WILLING, to give their LIFE for YOURS!! Like I said I ONLY have ONE idol…. GOD and so should YOU!! NO EXCUSES remember!!
