I had a feeling this was true, even before he came out with this.

I am retiring (yes it's true)
By Ryan Lee | September 22, 2008

Am I really retiring.
Well, yes and no.
I am phasing out one side of my business.
I will be shifting gears over the next few weeks and you’ll see some dramatic changes.
First, I will no longer create my own fitness programs. Instead I will refer you to other trainer’s programs which I have approved.
Why am I doing this.
It has to do with honesty and transparency.
Like I’ve told you for the past few weeks, I am 100 percent transparent. You will see everything I do.
And the truth is I am no longer actively training clients. And while I still train myself (and give advice to long-time clients) I just don’t feel right creating new fitness progams unless I am testing them myself with hundreds of clients.
I feel much more comfortable referring you to other trainers I know who are out there doing it, day after day.
Wow - that feels good to get off my chest.
So if I’m not teaching fitness online, what am I doing.
Good question.
I will focus more on helping you create the ultimate lifestyle.
I always tell my coaching clients to follow their passion - and that’s exactly what I am doing.
You’ll receive a mix of time-saving strategies, wealth-building tips and sure, there will be a smidge of fitness too.
The curtains will be peeled back to show you exactly how to build your own autopilot biz.
Everything from creating an ebook, to membership sites to running your own seminars.
It’s going to be a lot of fun and I can’t wait to share with you my 10+ years of trial and error.
All of my fitness clients will be sent to my new site coming next week. The BETA-testing is almost done so stay tuned.

Again, thank you for being a loyal reader. I promise you will be happy you’ve stuck with me."

Sounds like that will simplify his life a little. I can certainly relate to that desire. It really sucks when you look back on the last few years of your life and realize that you have spread yourself so thin that you aren't doing any of them well. Especially when being a partner and parent.

There are only so many human energy hours (HEH) we can put out in a day. Some people (like Ryan) can handle a bit more than others, but there is still only a finite amount from which to draw. A wise man learns what his HEH account has to give and divides it evenly between the few things he/she wants to do extremely well. Someone who is headed for an inevitable collision with reality will possibly lose everything by trying to DO everything.

I can juggle 3 or 4 things really well. 15 things? Not so much. I'm glad to see him being pro-active on this. Ryan and I have very similar personalities, and doing too many things is an easy trap to get caught in for people like that. The unwritten message in his announcement is that the extra time he has just given himself goes back into his HEH account so that his family can make more withdrawals. That is how you stay married and keep a family together.
