It's important to strive for honesty and authenticity rather than presenting things as I want them to appear. The ability to shape narratives in a way that aligns my desires leads to misunderstanings.
FITLETE Professional Update
The Resource Nexus
— I am continually upgrading the usability of the searching and filtering. Now that I have found a sound system to filter the results in the database effectively while onsite and without annoying reloads, I have taken the step to make it more directed. While the concept behind FITLETE organizing this information isn't novel, it can seem new to someone who hasn't visited the site before. That’s why I want it even more precise and straightforward how the filter will work when you use them. The version of search filters will look more like this as we advance.
Now, any new or returning users will have a clear understanding of how the filter system will work and can be as general or specific in their search as needed. This filtering style will exist throughout the Resource Nexus for a consistent experience. So, if you are looking for a business growth resource like the HomeFit Licensed Personal Trainer Program, you can do things like search for entrepreneur programs for personal trainers based in the USA with low start-up costs and then find it.

Personal Update
— February was busy with many visitors, family, and friends in town. As much as I wanted to be “more productive,” it was good to be reminded that life happens outside of work. Working for yourself can always seem like you're fighting the battle of doing more work, getting more done now rather than later, putting the sweat equity now to reap the benefits later, and just plain ole hustle.
It’s a never-ending battle to find the balance that works for sustainable growth over time. Sometimes it’s more work, and sometimes it’s less. As long as you can take a look in the mirror and remind yourself that you’re doing a good job and doing what you enjoy, I think you’re doing it the right way.
