About two years ago, a good friend of mine Steve asked me if I wanted to
participate in one of his favorite activities, a Spartan Race. I said “sure, why not?”
There was one little problem.
I really knew nothing about what a Spartan Race entailed. So I did what anyone
else would do.
I Googled it.
By the time the race came around a few months later I was a little more out of
shape, was recovering from bronchitis and scared shitless as by that point I came to
learn it was a form of organized torture. Well that last part is just my opinion.
Thank God I didn’t Google starting a medical company.
I am a firm believer we are given many opportunities in our life because of a
purpose. It’s then up to use to either recognize that opportunity and do something
with it, or ignore it and move on.
A few months after my Spartan Race, I had a meeting with a potential client the
Yako Twins on developing a reality TV Show. Since one of my friends, Eric Meza
was on one at the time, I decided to invite him to the meeting.
The Reality TV Show never got off the ground but Eric’s presence lead to me
picking up a stem cell regenerative medicine company he was working with as a
client and later to the creation of MedHealthIQ. Eric himself is successfully in the
medical business having just launched a practice in Paradise Valley Arizona, one
of the wealthiest zip codes in the country.
MedHealthIQ has a clear purpose itself.
We are out to change the lives for the better of professional and serious athletes
worldwide. After all, whether you are Lebron James or my friend Steve who takes
his Spartan Race races seriously, you deserve the best medical products and
services.
Our focus is in three areas:
1. Access to the best information and doctors grounded in naturopathic and
holistic medicine.
2. Providing products such as CBDs and supplements available at a fair price
via an e-commerce portal, retail locations and a direct sales force.
3. Provide services including stem cell regenerative medicine, hormone
rejuvenation therapy and others to improve in your conditioning,
performance and recovery.
I read a great Will Smith quote this morning that is worth sharing with you:
“You don’t try to build a wall, you don’t set out to build a wall. You don’t say I’m
going to build the biggest baddest wall that’s ever been built. You say, I’m going
to lay this brick as perfectly as a brick can be laid, and you do that every single
day, and soon you have a wall. It’s difficult to take the first step when you look at
how big the task is. The task is never huge to me, it’s always one brick.”
So here is to MedHealthIQ’s success one brick at a time. Just like I took that first
step on the Spartan Race course, I am now taking that first step in the launch of my
new company.
And no obstacle is too big to overcome.
Enjoy your weekend and good luck in building your wall one brick at a time.
