This year is a lot more low key than years past. I read what I was up to last year and the year before. Both times I was in Daytona Beach with my friends. This year, I’m doing my annual July 4th update from my Aunt Carolyn’s house. My brother Mark and cousin Sharon are cutting up some watermelon as I write this.

This is actually my 4th blog update on July 4th.  For those of you who don’t know, Independence Day is my favorite holiday. I I love it because it represents to me that men (and women!) can use the power of though and the dedication to follow through to achieve amazing things.

I’ve gone through so many changes over the last few years, I sometimes wake up and pinch myself just to make sure everything is real. And it is!

Financially, I’m doing very well. I’ve launched many internet businesses and will continue to do that. I actually have a new product launch coming up next week.

But with the good, comes some bad. I’ve lost sight of my health and put it on the back burner. And I’m ready now to get back on the wagon and return to my goals. Last year I started training for an Iron Man and was doing very good. I did 2 Super Sprint Triathlons.

I’m ready to get back to that. I also have a very special opportunity in front of me and time will tell what happens there. I have a pretty good feeling that my entire life will change in the next few months. I’m going to become the healthy person I know I’m supposed to be.

I plan on going out tonight and wathcing some fireworks. While I’m watching, I’ll be thinking about the power of making a firm decision and sticking with it. It took a group of “rebels” and turned them into founding fathers.

If you made a decision to change something about yourself and stuck to it…what could that do for you? I’ll find out this year what it means to me.

Happy 4th of July!!!

I’ll update you next year.

I don’t really write anything for this blog anymore. I actually turned it off for quite a few months before I decided to turn it back on. I figured it couldn’t hurt to let people read all my “old” stuff and see where I came from. It’s amazing to me that 48 months ago today I wrote my first post on this blog called An Introduction And A Prologue.

Well, that’s not TOTALLY true. I did write a really short post on the 4th of July sharing my frustrations with Wordpress. It’s pretty cool actually that people can see that. It let’s them know that even I had NO IDEA WHAT I WAS DOING when I started!!

Since then, I’ve done a lot of cool stuff. I launched the BOA Method…have spoke at 3 different events for my company…and met most of the “gurus”…the ones I use to envy and look up to. Now I give some of them advice!!

I will probably always update this blog every 4th of July…and maybe from time to time in between. I REALLY am so happy right now I can’t even explain it.

I’m in Daytona Beach, sitting across the table from one of my new good friends. Looking out at the water and just appreciating everything that’s happened for me.

If you’re reading this I want you to know that dreams do come true. You can do anything you want to do. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

Keep on dreaming and take action.

Happy Independence Day!

Love to Everyone,

Mike Antoni
