My first Blog Entry

Hello All,

I just wanted to thank you all for coming to my blog and checking me out. SO you know who you are reading about, I thought I would give you a little background of who I am.

Mr.Jonkat is the name (but some call me Mr. JK, JK, or JonKat so whichever you choose is cool with me) and I am from Boston, MA. I was born here about 28 yrs ago (29 this Oct.) and have left the city a few times but consider this place home. I have left for various reasons and always in search of something better and I never find it. So I told myself as long as I get away on short vacations from time to time, I could see myself living in this city for a while. I went to college here in Boston and have obtained 2 degrees. I have a Bachelor's in Criminology & Law with a minor in Spanish, as well as, my Master's in Political Science. I had a career path in mind while I was in school but like most people who are graduating these days you almost never end up where you think you will. I can say that I am happy where I ended up and that is all that matters.

The reason for this BLOG: I have found that I am more focused when I put myself out there. I am not sure if it is that I feel better getting things off my chest (no matter what the forum may be) or that I feel a sense of accountability when people who read my blogs are expecting results. ACCOUNTABILITY is huge with me and as I age it becomes more and more fascinating. I feel that with age we reach new stages in our lives that allow us to reflect on not only our immediate past but ALSO many years ago.

What to expect from this BLOG: I always have short (as well as long term) goals that I am setting for myself. I like to challenge myself and see what my breaking point is. Call it masochistic if you will, but I say it is nothing more than goal setting. I named by blog Eternal Evolution because I am aware that one can always be better than he or she is. I am not saying that perfection is a goal I am expecting or even considering, but I will say that becoming a better person is definitely a huge priority of mine.

Lastly... I will begin my blog entries focused on my health. I have been working out for over the past 9 years and have actually become obsessed with it. One of my mottos is: "Obsession is the Catalyst for Change". Believe me it is a healthy obsession nothing to be concerned about. I do splurge and have junk food here and there, but I want to live a life where I am making healthly decisions on a regular basis. I am going to embark on the P90X workout routine and would love to hear from anyone that could be of assistance. I believe that I will start it within a months time as I am going to complete the program with a friend of mine. I am going to go all out and post pics and continue to blog. I am also going to do Youtube entries every 2 weeks to show videos of my transformation so stayed tuned!

Any feedback will be greatly appreciated! I wish you all the best and thank you for stopping by!

-JK
