What is e-Fitness?

In a nutshell e-Fitness is being at peace with the digital tech and gadgets in your life and using them efficiently and without stress or confusion.

Being a bit of a geek and a professional technical sales type, I have often run into family, friends and coworkers that just plain cringed at any conversation that turned toward the technical or digital. I could see in their faces the frustration, confusion and sometimes the utter loathing of having to deal with anything technical.

Luckily, most of these people had me to help them and lucky for me, I truly enjoy seeing that "Ah Ha" moment, when their eyes light up with the sense that it was not that hard and it was actually kind of fun. This is what drives me, that ability to help someone with the tech, that they felt was impossible or insurmountable.

With the above stated, with each new customer I listen to what their issues are and then try and put myself in their shoes. Once I have a good feel for how they feel, I tell them these three things.

1. You have to want to become e-Fit. I can not help anyone that does not want to learn. Think of it this way... If you go to a gym and hire a fitness instructor, do you expect them to do your workout. No, probably not and it is the same with me. I am not there to do your work, I am there to empower, motivate and give my expertise but you have to do the heavy lifting.
2. You have to understand that all the gadgets and technology were created by humans and as such, it is not perfect! It will break, it will frustrate and you will want to break things at times. That is just the way it is. People made it and it's going to fail. This dovetails right into number 3.
3. You have to have the patience (Yes counting to 10 happens a lot) of a parent, the tenacity of a pit bull with a bone and that heart of an explorer. Working with your tech is not always easy and you will need to dig deep, try new ways of making it work and exploring online forums for answers. Many times sitting on hold with customer service agent, which is always my personal favorite.

In short becoming e-Fit and helping people get that way is a passion of mine. I invite you to contact me if this is something that is important to you and if you are ready to take that first step toward an e-Fit lifestyle.
