A diet high in…

Simple carbohydrates, can actually make us more hungry.

Carbohydrates break down into either glucose which can be used for energy or fuel for the body, or glycogen which can be stored by the body, as a reserve to be used later when the body demands it.

And simple carbohydrates are the ones that are usually processed or refined, which is the reason they break down into glucose so fast – making us more hungry – more quickly.

A better bet is to consume more complex carbohydrates, which are the carbohydrates, starches and sugars found in their natural form, like in fruits and vegetables, where it takes much longer to break down – thus making us less hungry – less quickly.

And complex carbohydrates are healthier for us and they don’t spike the insulin response as much as simple carbohydrates.

Plans change…

And it is always, our choice, what we do about it.

Plans change as much as business proposals, once they meet up with the real world.

And in knowing, plans change…we need to be prepared to go to plan B or do an end around, in another direction. This doesn’t have to replace our original plan, we just may have to take a short detour.

So we are not saying, don’t make plans, because plans are our best chance to get to where we’re going, we just want to make it clear, that plans change…and maybe it’s just because it makes sure…we are staying in the game.

Newton’s 1st Law…

…of Motion states:

“Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it”.It is also termed the “Law of Inertia” – it applies to everything in the Universe… including our lives.

In practice and in coaching, I have seen people moving in the same direction in their lives as years go by, without much deviation in regard to their physical body, health, career and relationships.

Occasionally, some people get “Hit” by an external devastating force and change the course of their life.

You can wait to get “Hit” by an external force to get you to change course…or you can use your OWN internal power to change your course… for the better.

When you wake up…

Tomorrow morning, instead of thinking about your aches and pains, the restless nights sleep you just got, all the things you need to do and all the problems you will undoubtedly encounter.

Try this: Think of what a privilege is is to be alive…to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love and to live.

When you make this switch – I bet you will be just like me, and your whole day will be better than you could of ever imagined – especially, much better than thinking your original thoughts.

Enjoy everything?

Well, in theory yes, but in practicality, we definitely enjoy some thing more than others.

And why not?

If we enjoyed everything the same, then having the best time of your life with close friends or family would bring the same enjoyment as washing dishes…and that’s just not right.

So it’s OK to be less than enthusiastic for some things, because it will make the cool things even sweeter.

What can we tell others…

About ourselves, that would “dazzle them”, without making stuff up.

We can always make stuff up to make us bigger or more amazing than we really are, that’s easy, we can even tell things about our past that can put us in the hero category that wasn’t all that true. Maybe we’ve even used the old saying, “The older I get, the better I was”.

But what’s the real truth? What is it that you do or have done that can be worthy of re-telling?

If we have something that is or was “dazzling” – great! And If not, we can always start today to have our future filled with the great things we have done.
