I must be crazy

I started the IDC today. The IDC stands for Instructor Development Course. So what is it? The IDC was created by PADI to teach potential instructors how to teach people to SCUBA. Starting today can going for the next 3 weekends (Saturday and Sunday) - 8 AM to 8 PM. Then I take the two day instructor exam. Crazy!

Yes I am still going to school, taking English and Trigonometry right now. Yes I still have my consulting company, and if that is not enough I am starting a new company. It is called EFR International and it is my CPR, First Aid, and AED (Automated External Defibrillator) training and sales company. I became an Emergency First Response instructor back in January. Since then I have created a goal of having an AED in every company in the US and to have every employee of those companies trained in CPR and AED - because the life that may be saved, may be yours.

So why did I start this endeavor? I am not really sure other than the fact that I had to bail out of the Red Sea trip I had scheduled and had available funds on the books at the dive shop. I was gonna go to Belize, but I am going to Mexico during the Belize trip. I was gonna go to Bonaire, but for some reason I could not do that on either. So I decided to go through the IDC.
