Do whatcha like.

"Hey, Noordmans!  Pick it up! Looks like your pull'n a plow out there!"  There's so much to love about Fall in Minnesota, the constant badgering of your high school football coach is not one of them.  I guess if what he was saying wasn't true I'd have even more reason to gripe.  I've never been the fleetest of foot, I've always blamed that on big bones, or big thighs, or my flat feet.  It was because of those big bones and big thighs that I played football in the first place, but it never really was my thing.  On top of that, I'd say I was a 'B' level football player, on top of that...Fall was hunting season.  All that adds up to me not playing football my senior year because I liked hunting better.  There's plenty of stories of my buddy Tim and I's hunting trips that would also prove hunting wasn't something I excelled at but hey, at least I liked it!  I liked hockey, so I played religiously since I was 4 years old.  I like cars, could talk for hours with just about anybody, and watch those auctions on TV for hours.  I've kind of used 'Do whatcha like' as a mantra for success.  It took me a while to figure out in college what I liked, but I found it, I pursued it...and it lead me to amazing opportunities.  Since those high school days I sporatically worked out.  Again, it wasn't something I enjoyed doing.  Slowly over the last 10 years it became almost non-existant.  Meg and I were spinning for a while, and while it provided results, I didn't really care for it.  We were also doing some yoga at the time, her more than myself but I did like it so I think it will work its way back into our schedules.  I remember when Meg sent me the link to OTF.  I read about it and said, hmmm I might like that better than just 'going to the gym'.  That's an understatement at this point.  How they took a handfull of things 'I don't like' and turned it into something I love doing, I'll never know.  I'm sure glad they did, it has been key to my success so far.  For anybody who might need to find an avenue to being healthier...'Do whatcha like', it's working for me. 
 P.S.  I stole 'Do whatcha like' from a 90's rap band, extra points if you can tell me which one.
