I found a great new resource and will be sharing some of the training e-mails I have received lately by Darin Steen from http://fatlosslifestyle.atozfitness.com with you over the next few weeks.

Check this out.

Lewis, what is your key to a successful fat loss, exercise program?  What is the main ingredient in having a totally fulfilled life.   

Can someone really live life to the fullest, with no regrets and leave a huge impact on family, friends, and even strangers, FOREVER?  Can we reach our true potential in all the major areas of our life; health, money, & relationships?

Can we have it all, a dream life, one that we envisioned when we were young innocent children? Can we remain independent well into our 90’s and even 100’s, can we age gracefully?  Will you lewis?

Absolutely, YES!!  And a vital key to making it happen is our health & energy.  I am talking real energy, not the kind from 4 cups of coffee in the morning, or from ephedrine (extreme fat loss pills), or diet pills.

What is the key?

Well lewis, one thing I have learned in my 43 years on this earth is that it is never one thing.  But if I had to narrow it down, I would say comes down to;

intense desire, knowledge, awareness, having a mind like a child, loving, laughing, having a balance between being driven and not content & enjoying the now and being incredibly content, having a balance between getting new info (easy to do cause this is the information age) and limiting your info (lots of times to0 much info leads to paralysis by analysis), but by far and away the most important trait is; NEVER QUITTING. 

You see lewis we need to know what we want (health, money, relationships), write it down, read it out loud every day and night, and get emotional and visualize that we have already attained it.  Please do not end up like 97% of everyone on this earth and not have a single goal past the second week of Jan. 

Visualizing your goals lewis is important, but not nearly as important as feeling the sweet emotion of victory and success of having already accomplished your goals.

I need to stop right here and say;  Do not under estimate the power of this article to radically change your life.  I am afraid that you have heard me talk about these simple life changing strategies too long and I am like white noise.  DO NOT MAKE THAT MISTAKE.

You can change your life with these simple strategies in a short amount of time.  I did, and many of the graduates of my 12 Week FATLOSS LIFESTYLE Program have.

But if you are going to do the simple strategies (that are outlined in my book) to make it happen more than likely come down to; are you very unhappy and uncomfortable with your present position in life.

You see, if you through a rat into boiling water, he is going to jump out immediately.  But if you put him in bath water and slowly warm the water to a boil he will stay in it and boil to death.  What I am trying to get most of you to see is that most of us are not aware that we are slowly killing our selves.

We are dull to our senses and we are not doing what it takes to change our lives.  We need to stand up, look in the mirror and answer some hard questions. 

Look lewis: You are exactly where you want to be right now. You’ve already taken the steps necessary to achieve your station in life, and not one bit more. And you’re completely satisfied with that station in life. Even if you know you could be much leaner, stronger, more energetic, happier, and more successful.

Now you might say "Well, that’s not true – I know someone who is 100 pounds overweight and he’s miserable!"

To which I say, no, he’s satisfied. Clearly, the benefit he’s deriving from his behaviors still outweighs the drawbacks, or else he’d change those behaviors!

This article is primarily meant to inspire some self-analysis – not to provide hard and fast answers. However, if you’d like some avenues to pursue some serious reflection, here are a few:

1. Develop self-reliant behavior- create the mindset that all of your limitations are self-imposed, because they are. 

2. Get out of your comfort zone (get into the boiling water) and find a way to enjoy it.  In fact, you might even want to consider burning the boats (no recourse or way to retreat) and put your rear end on the line.  It will light a fire underneath you.  It will get you out of bed early and stay up late.

I did it several times in the past.  I quit a job of security after 18 years and took a 100% commission job.  If I did not become very successful in the first couple months, I would have lost my house.  It is very stressful, but it is the good kind of stress.  I did not lose my house. 

In fact I now live in a dream house with a backyard paradise that my wife & two daughters enjoy every day3. Find out what works, and then do more of it. Find out what’s derailing your efforts, and do less of that.

3. Cultivate dissatisfaction. After all, that’s why you’re where you are now- you’re satisfied with it.  Visualize and focus what you want (and feel the emotion of already having it) 90% of the time, and visualize what you don’t want 10% of the time.

4. Seek out and cultivate empowering personal relationships. The people you spend the most time with have a profound effect on your life. Make sure it’s a profoundly POSITIVE effect.  I am so glad that you and I are becoming friends.  Cause whether you believe me or not, you are the #1 reason why I have evolved from a truck driver into a world re-nowned motivator.  I could not have, would not have been able to evolve with out many of you.  I mean that from the bottom of my heart.  Thank you to Brian, Beth, Mark, Nikky, Glen, Joe, Big Brian, Chef Paul, and many more of my one on one clients who gave me the mind set that I now have.

I hope this article has been instructive for you.

Bottom line is that I know that you can have it all.  How do I know, cause I feel like I am so much closer to having it all than I have ever been.  I am doing it, many of my one on one clients here in Chicago are doing it, and many of my on-line clients from around the world (we are now in 7 different countries) are doing it. 

If you are ready, if you just got thrown into some boiling water, that is great.
