Do you want to improve your life and success? One place to start is with your health. I am a firm believer that your health plays a huge part in your success. If you are unhealthy, how can you possibly succeed? You won’t have the energy you need to get what needs to be done, finished. You may be focused on other health issues rather than your goals. You won’t have as much determination and discipline to seek your wants and desires. You might get sick more often and have to take time away from your goals to get well. Healthy and fit people are seen as confident, determined and capable. Hate to say it but people that are unhealthy and overweight get treated far differently than those that are fit. Those that are fit are respected much more. When you are healthy you feel better, look better, can think faster and handle stress much better than when you aren’t. Your confidence level will soar. One trait of every successful person I know is that they are immensely confident in themselves. You cannot have true abundance in ANY area of your life without first feeling immensely confident in yourself. The main determining factor in your confidence is how you feel about your body. If you look at high achievers they all are immensely confident in themselves. A lot of this confidence comes with being happy with their bodies. You cannot have a healthy mind without a healthy body.
You can’t change the fact that others will treat and listen to people that are healthy more so than those that are unhealthy and unfit. What you can change is you. When you get in shape, your whole appearance changes. Your confidence level rises, you appear to have much more authority than before. You’ll have more energy to get things done. You’ll stay more motivated and disciplined in other areas of your life as well. All around your whole dynamic changes. If you want success, take the step to improve your health. You’ll be amazed at what it will do for all areas of your life. One way I have found you can easily do this is with the Body By Vi Challenge. It’s a fun 90 day health challenge to improve your health, lose weight and feel great. Most achievers don’t have the time to do crazy workouts, or make all their meals at home. They simply don’t have the time. Most people don’t want to lose weight by drinking crazy green substances that you have to hold your nose just to get down. Achievers need something quick and simple that tastes great. For me, Body By Vi was a great solution. I don’t have to count carbs or eat meals that taste like cardboard. I simply replace a meal a day with a shake. Simple. Easy. Fun. Tastes awesome. You can find out more about it at www.upforchallenge.net. Your health is your greatest asset. Without it, how can you possibly succeed? However you decide to get healthy, make the investment in yourself. Your success will thank you.
It seems a lot of people are looking for the easy button for their lives. They want to hit a button and have their lives instantly fulfilled overnight. I hate to break it to you but there is no easy button to achieve greatness in anything. To get where you want to go it’s going to take work. Serious hard work. I think Americans see musicians and actors all of the sudden pop up out of nowhere and become famous and wealthy. They think that it can be done instantly. What we don’t see is the years of hard work that got them to that tipping point that they broke over. All achievers put in hard work into getting there. There was some magical chant or potion that made them that way, they simply put in the time to get where they wanted to go. 
I know a person that wants to succeed. Well they say they do anyway, but I think otherwise. I feel this way because they are working for broke. What do I mean? That their lifestyle habits, thoughts and choices are all engrossed with poverty thinking and are dispelling potential success. It’s as if everything about them does the exact opposite of what they say they “want.” Do they really want success or are they working for broke? 
Heres another: This past Friday was black Friday. Tons of crazy deals at stores all over if you are an early riser willing to take on crowds. I drove by Best Buy and saw people camping outside just to get special deals. I’m a curious person, so I pulled up in front and asked them what they were waiting on. Their answer: to get a hundred bucks off a TV. Literally camping the night before just to be the first in line to get a deal for a hundred bucks. Wow. 
Denial of yourself is one of the saddest tragedies of our world today. We have millions of people out there that are holding themselves back by denying their extraordinary ability to accomplish something.
Today marks opening day for Keeneland here in Lexington, KY. Time for people from all over to put on their best, grab drinks with friends and bet on race horses. It’s a blast. 
A train is strong on a railroad but If you took it off it’s tracks it would be weak and not get very far. Entrepreneurs are often like trains. You may be strong in one area, like the train when its on the tracks, but not in others. Perhaps you are creative in business ideas but terrible at organization. It’s okay. There is nothing wrong with it. No one is incredible at everything. Entrepreneurs often make the mistake of trying to do and be good at everything themselves. Often it ends up creating a situation where you can’t accomplish your goals. Learn to surround yourself with a great team that can handle the stuff you aren’t as good at. You can build up faster by focusing your talents on where they excel, rather than where there are weak. 
BELIEVE while others are doubting.
Just read this: 
The other day I spoke with a friend who was having a hard time financially. This person, was working himself to death and never seemed to improve his situation. He would work harder and harder only to see his finances get smaller everyday. He was complaining to me how much he hated being poor. 
If you were driving along and saw this sign what would you think? A pile of manure or gold? It’s all in the eye of the beholder. Are you the kind of person that sees something like this and thinks… huh… I wonder what I could create from that?
