Satisfaction??

I need it, I want it, seems like I haven’t had it in such a long time. Something sweet, something cool, something satisfying…. Yes, I want ice cream. I am so hungry for ice cream, I would do anything for it. When

I close my eyes I can imagine how good it will be to eat it and how satisfied it will make me feel.

Ahhhh, finally ice cream…. how sweet, how creamy, how cool. I haven’t had ice cream in such a long time. I said I would do anything for some ice cream and I meant it, boy am I in heaven. How can anything get any better?? I’m sitting in the sun eating my ice cream, my favorite flavor – rocky road, with big pieces of marshmallow and crunchy almonds. I’m getting down to the cone and man is that crunch of the cone great with the ice cream or what? How sad, I am almost finished with the cone….the last bite gone, satisfaction at last!

I need it, I want it, seems like I haven’t had it in such a long time. Something wet, something cool, something satisfying…yes I want water. I am so thirsty for water, I would do anything for it. When I close my eyes I can imagine how………………………….

Don’t let go…

If you have a dream – don’t let go.

If you have a plan and things seem to get in the way – don’t let go.

If your sight gets clouded, remember you still have your vision – don’t let go.

It is your life – don’t ever let go.

Overcoming Osteoporosis?

Osteoporosis is a demineralization of the bone, mostly with respect to calcium. It results in less bone density and makes one susceptible to fracture.

Many people can over come this by understanding it’s cause.

Wolff’s Law is explained as “bone will remodel itself over time to become stronger in response to the stresses put upon it, and conversely, if the load or stress on the bone decreases, the bone will become weaker as the strength is not needed”.

Examples are a Pro tennis players bones in the forearm show up to 50% more bone density than the non-racket holding arm, and the opposite is true for astronauts which are in space in a weightless environment (no gravity), the bone looses it’s density and strength.

In the population, most cases of osteoporosis are in the aging. For the most part it is a result of decreased movement or exercise. To supplement calcium only, will not reverse the condition as the calcium will not be transported to the bone if there is no stress put upon it.

To help reverse the effects of osteoporosis, systematically increase movement and exercise as you increase calcium rich foods in your diet such as dark green vegetables.

What we do in Life…

Echoes for Eternity.

In the Leadership Essentials class that I delivered at Zappos, we said that “We are building this company for our grandchildren”.

And “What we do today, will be reflected in our business 50 years from now”.

But maybe “Echoes for Eternity”, is more fitting.

The Best Investment…

We can ever make is in our Mind and Body…and learning new things to help us is Never a waste of time.

We are not born with all the answers and secrets that will help us be as healthy as possible, and we might have even been raised with some things that are not so good for us, that may need to be changed.

So we need to take the time and slow down once in a while, to gain some knowledge which is all around us…which can help us help ourselves.

Ever get Excited…

And it seems to come out of nowhere??

Take it and run with it – without hesitation!

Many times we go cruising along, from day to day and week to week, just going about our business and only getting excited occasionally, because we are focused on what’s in front of us and not what’s around us.

Take it all in…what’s around, us and the great opportunities which lie in our future – let’s get out of our heads for a bit…because when we take it all in…our excitement will build.

So when we are having one of those days that seem to come out of nowhere, it has probably come from our recent reflection on our grateful thoughts, and our positive outlook.
