Average Dad Hangout

An average dads' journey for a rich life

Welcome to the average dad hangout! Here you will find my notes via blog posts as I journey through life and attempt to lead the richest life possible. What do I mean by leading a rich life? To me, a rich life is a life where I have the freedom to do what I want. I'll have more choices than I do now, I'll be able to travel wherever and whenever I want and I'll be able to help out my family with their dreams. When you first meet me, you'd think I'm decidedly average; I have a wife with whom we've had 2 children (a boy and a girl) and a medium level income. I don't have a glamorous job and I wouldn't stand out in crowd. What you won't see is that inside I am harboring average dreams, and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to fulfill my Personal Legend (ala The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho). As Tony Robbins says, "success leaves clues" and this blog is my way of leaving clues to help the next person achieve their dreams as well. Enjoy your stay and if I have helped you in any way please let me know!
