For the past few years of my life, I have made some major changes in my lifestyle and entire perspective on life.
A few years ago, I was living in a different part of the country where the outdoor climate was very challenging.
We had an extremely long and miserable winter season that would drive me indoors and create massive depression for 6 to 8 months at a time. The outdoor landscape was flat and bleak, and there really wasn’t much to do for outdoor recreation. Living under these conditions, my health was definitely not my priority. I didn’t get enough outdoor activity or exercise, and my mental health was in the toilet. When I moved to a warmer climate, I realized the power of exercise for all aspects of improving your life. That’s when I became a bit exercise obsessive. I completely changed my physical composition, my mental health, and my career. Now, I’m opening my own fitness center aimed at holistic wellness in the historic downtown part of my village. There’s only one problem. The air conditioning system in the building that I’m renting is awful. These days, I live in a consistently hot and humid environment. That means, you always need to operate a central air conditioning system for any level of comfort or quality of life. The AC system in my building is clearly at least 15 years old. The landlord doesn’t want to have it professionally maintained until the entire AC unit keels over. I can’t wait that long for a cooling system to be operable in my fitness center. At this point, I have to delay the grand opening, purchase my own central cooling system upgrade, or figure out a way to break the existing air conditioner.
