This picture was taken exactly 1 year from today on my 30th Birthday. . The last year flew by and I am feeling nothing but gratitude today on my 31st Birthday . Grateful for God for blessing me with another year of life so I can continue to make a difference in my own way... . Grateful for my wonderful parents for having me and raising me to become the Man I am today . Grateful for my beautiful wife for blessing us with our amazing baby boy Zohaan and for always being by my side and supporting me in EVERYTHING I decide to do . Grateful for starting my online coaching business to help as many Type 2 Diabetics as I can and for our wonderful Fit Diabetic Facebook Community . Starting a business and managing all aspects of it (marketing, lead generation, content creation, sales, product delivery, coaching) has been a great challenge to say the least. But seeing the life changing transformations of my clients has been worth every struggle . I like to use my Birthdays as a self reflection moment for the past year to see how far I have come, and without a doubt I have grown the most in the past year than I have in the past 6 years combined . Change is hard and uncomfortable but it's essential to growth. Change is the only constant in life. We are either growing or we are dying . Time to grow. See more
