Stop worrying people, I'm not malnourished...
Many people are telling me great job, but are you malnourished? Are you getting nutrients? Etc.
Time to set the record straight on what I am consuming on this Vision Quest I’m on (Day 70, BTW). I am not on one of those crazy water + lime diets or really a “cleanse” in the traditional definition. (Although this is definitely a mental “cleanse”)

Why a personal blog?
Everyone knows I manage the Susco Solutions blog which (hopefully) provides good content but this is the first time I’m writing a personal blog.
There are a couple reasons I’m doing this; to look back on my perspectives / positions in life, to provide a “log” for my children, and to build my personal brand (saw Gary Vanyerchuk at SxSW an am listening to Crush It audiobook...
