Jonny's Story
I'm Jonathan (JonnySweatpants) Cohen, and it's my priviledge to share this community with you.
I've never had a problem with being comfortable in my own skin, and that's always been a focus for me throughout my life. Get Comfortable....wherever I am. While the 'JonnySweatpants' moniker does have some of its basis in lounging around, it truly is a representation of how I strive to be as a person. Being able to be comfortable in any situation I am placed in.
If there is something that the past 45 years has taught me, it's that you can overcome ANYTHING that life has to throw at you. There will be ups, and there will be downs. We all have it within ourselves to weather the storms that come our way, and live every day to its fullest.
I used to think that my success was soley based on my title, my salary, or the amount of 'stuff' that I had. And while some of the intracacies of that stuff can be nice for a period of time, there is nothing that will make you feel more successful than being in service of others.
Be comfortable, being uncomfortable. Be the change you want to see. Put yourselves out there for the world to see and accept. Volunteer within your community and be a postive influence in your environment.
Near 45 now, married with two kids, there truly is no better feeling than taking comfort in knowing I am doing the best I can for them every day.
I'm a lot of things now. A father. A husband. A gamer. A professional. And the list goes on... Being comfortable with all of them, is what makes me 'JonnySweatpants'...
