I try not to view foods or diets as ‘good’ or ‘bad’. Rather, I try to see them for what the are, or what they are not. And, if I’m not sure, then, I’ll learn. Will this (food or diet) make me feel good today, or long-term? Is this actually a food? Will it helpContinue reading “Foods Aren’t Good Or Bad”

You Control What You Become
Your body is the most complex machine on the planet. It is beautiful, strong, and resilient. It is more sophisticated than all of the computers, smartphones, and other devices you can think of … all put together. For example, there are approximately 6 billion biochemical reactions per second in your body. You probably tend toContinue reading “You Control What You Become”
Clearing The Fog
You are life. You are an embodiment of the energy of the universe, and vitality resides within you. It is there, no matter how deep down it may be buried, no matter which direction your brain may have twisted it against, or away from, yourself. When you lose connection with that, the world can feelContinue reading “Clearing The Fog”
What Time Do You Recover?
I don’t love to gamble, but there’s a good chance that you don’t have ‘recovery’ scheduled into your weekly work calendar. It’s also a good bet that there is room for improvement in your productivity. For example, I consider myself to be fairly productive, but I am always looking for ways to become more efficient,Continue reading “What Time Do You Recover?”
Internal Work
Just because you’re happy on the outside, doesn’t mean that you are on the inside. Like two sides of the same coin, we cannot spend our lives working only on external appearances, and avoiding internal development. In fact, when you have the courage to look inwards, you build up the strength & power to ‘glow’Continue reading “Internal Work”
What Do I Eat At A Stadium?
The reason why you can’t find anything healthy to eat at most stadiums is that they don’t serve it. There are a few exceptions, and, here and there, I do see them trying to put in better options. But keep in mind that the quality of the food is likely to be very, very lowContinue reading “What Do I Eat At A Stadium?”
Your Brain Lies
Before the first set of a tough super-set, my brain sometimes tells me that “I simply just don’t want to do this at all. I should just stop & walk away right now.” After the first set, I know that’s bullsh*t. Before the second set of a tough super-set, my brain sometimes tells me thatContinue reading “Your Brain Lies”
Excuses Are Easy
I was a few seconds away from not training at all. It was cold. It was late. I had to get breakfast started for the family, so that we could be on time for our commitments. I had plenty of other work to do on the computer. Plus, my lower back was still sore. AnotherContinue reading “Excuses Are Easy”
Looking Inside
I didn’t have a research assistant to check this out, but it seems to me that stress-relief toys are significantly more abundant today than they were ten, twenty, fifty years ago, and so forth. Stress balls have been around for awhile. But there are over 2,000 results for ‘sensory fidget toys’, and over 6,000 forContinue reading “Looking Inside”
You Already Know
I’m starting to come to the conclusion that there is no question that you do not know the answer to. Why does speaking with this person cause tension to arise? Why hasn’t this project been completed? Why haven’t you been able to see results in this area? What is the meaning of life? Ok, thatContinue reading “You Already Know”
