Ideas, Thoughts on the Future, Breaking out of my shell.

Hello, my name is Scottie Sheets. I'm 25 years old and am engaged to a smart and beautiful young woman named Darcie. I have been working since I started college in 2009. I've received numerous Presidential honor awards from the colleges I've attended through the years. I scored a mere 2 points short of qualifying for MENSA in a test taken when I was around 16 years old. More recently, I've come close to completing a degree in Information Systems Management. I've chosen this field because I love computers, but quite frankly, I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up. I've even been invited to apply at an Ivy League school, Columbia University. The only thing I'm 100% sure of, is that I don't care where life takes me as long as I can spend it with Darcie and our future children. The closest I've come to finding true happiness in any field so far, was when I was on the Deployment team at Payless. During which time I made several good friends and I really felt like my work mattered, that I was a part of a team. Sadly, this was a contract position, and the only job I didn't want to leave after 6 months, was ended. This was the best paying job I'd held to date. I've been with Walmart for the majority of the last 5 years. My goal within Walmart, eventually is to run my own store. Something that I feel they've forgotten, and is why I'm writing this blog. Much to the surprise of many friends and acquaintences, is that I will accept a paycut as long as it means I can stay in a position I love and am still able to provide for my family. If I were to put a number on that, approximately $20/hr would suffice to maintain a well cushioned, comfortable living for myself and Darcie. I'm a very hard worker, and a quick learner. I love people, helping them, meeting new people, and doing my best to be a light in the darkness for those in need. Again, I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up, because up to this point, I have been afraid of putting myself out there, afraid of failure, but I've realized that to achieve my goals I have to get my hands dirty, I've got to take chances. I've realized that fear is very real, it's what keeps us from breaking the mold, trying new things, and most of all, it keeps us from exploring all of the opportunities set before us in this magnificent world we live. I'm particularly fond of the idea of property management; we live in an evolving world where people are becoming more and more interested in getting out and enjoying the world, rather than paying to be tied to one particular place. With the advances in technology, more and more "work from home" or "telecommute" jobs are available, giving people the freedom to pursue the new "tiny house" movement. Several channels on the DIY/HGTV networks have focused on just that. I have many ideas on how to capitalize on this, from Veteran's housing, to an entire "village" of tiny houses, complete with movie theater, shopping malls/centers, recycling center, and more. I'm also very passionate about recycling. I would love little more than to see reforms in the way America handles it's trash and recycling programs. I've moved a lot in the last 5 years and only one place I lived offered a recycling program. This was in Emporia, KS and is headed still today, by my professor at the time, Amy Becker. I think we as a community owe it to ourselves, and posterity to consider the effects of the large scale of waste that is created on a daily basis in this country. Let us look to other countries to see how they do things, and let us create, shape, and build together, an American way of preserving our planet.

Thank you to those of you who have taken the time to read this. Please feel free to take the ideas discussed in this blog and make it happen!

Shaklee Challenge Overview

Hello everyone, my name is Scottie Sheets. Today I just received my order of Shaklee products; I will be taking the ultimate challenge…  I am going to be using Shaklee’s Cinch weight loss program, Vitalizer – a super-biotic vitamin regimen that is claimed to revitalize your life, lower blood pressure and boost immune system, Nutriferon – an immune boosting and rebuilding compound, and Vivix – a resveratrol super-concentrate that has been clinically proven to help your heart, as well as to “slow aging at the cellular level.” You may be thinking, what does a 21yr old need an anti-aging regimen for? Well it’s simple, I grew up eating McDonalds, so my body is just full of crap that’s making me older faster.

I will also be revamping my house with Shaklee’s Get Clean products. They offer what is called an H2 Concentrate, just ¼ tsp in 16oz of water makes enough window cleaner to last a month or more. This H2 cleaner in different water to concentrate formulae, can be used for everything from windows to floors, from minor spills to major stains. I’ll put them to the ultimate test this month.

Then, there is a line of skin care products which are supposed to reverse the signs of aging, tighten skin (including stretch marks) and make your skin clean, and healthy without all of the harmful chemicals that are present in most of today’s cosmetics.

All of this will be tested this month, every day I will post pictures of myself taking each product so you know what I tell you is true, and not faked. I must warn you, the first pictures will be disgusting to some, so viewer disgression is advised. Don’t be alarmed though, all the pictures will comply with Facebook’s posting policy.

I look forward to this life-changing journey, and know that you all will enjoy following me in what could possibly be the hardest, most rigorous health-challenge in my life.
