About Mitch Somach

A few things to know about me: Love being uncomfortable and embrace change; Relish extended periods of time in sub 40 degree water. It\'s only a mental exercise and a strong / clear mind = good decision making ability. Adaptive problem solver and always plan for the future; Former D1 tennis player, train regularly, and careful about what foods I eat. Prioritizing health now means I won\'t pay for it later (hopefully).Communication and goal setting are the foundations for success; If you don\'t know what you are tying to achieve and how you will get there, will you know if you have succeeded?
