Who am I and What is This?

Hi, my name is Jeff (that is my awesome wife, Colleen in the picture, too), and I am the cause of all this here. I wanted to give you some insight to me, and what this is all about.

I'm a married, 40-something, creative guy, full of ideas, but needs to weigh less, be a better husband and feel comfortable meeting new people. That's me. There was a time that people like me would struggle, and no one would ever know, but that is so 1992.

I figured I would take this struggle of making Jeff, a better Jeff out into the blogosphere, and "Redo-You" was born.

So, this is part selfish, and part helpful. I want to help me, and I want to help others, too. I see people all the time that aren't achieving their full potential in life, and I can see what they can become, if they would just redo a little of their thinking, focus differently, make changes, and be who they were meant to be, it would be incredible.

Like the About Us page says, I'm not a doctor, psychologist, priest, dietician, financial manager, or professional anything, but I have made (and still make) lots of mistakes, and I care about people.

So, this is an experiment. I don't know how this will turn out. I don't have thousands of dollars to give to designers, pr people, writers, etc to make this site look incredible, and let Oprah know that I'd like to talk to her audience before she leaves her show.

All I have is me to create this, and I think that's all I will need. One person, being real, and helping other people. Big changes in life have started with less than that.

I see this site helping thousands of people, including me. Lofty goal, I know. Lots of work ahead, lots of failures and successes ahead, but why now? Because tomorrow never comes.

This is a safe place for you to be you, and for me to be me. Let's learn from each other and help each other Redo ourselves.
