Author Unknown "A man’s health can be judged by which he takes two at a time -
pills or stairs." Joan Welsh "Exercise alone provides psychological and physical benefits.
However, if you also adopt a strategy that engages your mind while
you exercise, you can get a whole host of psychological benefits
fairly quickly." James Rippe, M.D.

while movement and methodical physical exercise save it and
preserve it. – Plato
To be successful, you must dedicate yourself 100% to your training,
diet and mental approach. – Arnold Schwarzenegger

efficient your body, the better you feel and the more you will use your
talent to produce outstanding results. – Anthony Robbins You have to stay in shape. My grandmother, she started walking five
miles a day when she was 60. She’s 97 today and we don’t know where
the hell she is. – Ellen Degeneres

Goal Setting – You’ve Got To Make Your Goals Big!
Posted by: | CommentsToday I’m looking at ‘goal setting’…
"A goal properly set is halfway reached." – Abraham Lincoln
"The more intensely we feel about an idea or a goal, the
more assuredly the idea, buried deep in our subconscious,
will direct us along the path to its fulfillment." – Earl
Nightingale"
You have to set goals that are almost out of reach. If you
set a goal that is attainable without much work or thought,
you are stuck with something below your true talent and
potential." – Steve Garvey
"Goals give you more than a reason to get up in the
morning; they are an incentive to keep you going all day.
Goals tend to tap the deeper resources and draw the best
out of life." – Harvey Mackay
I’m just off to reset mine so I can go and fill up my mega
thirsty 4 x 4!

Criticism is easy, art is difficult ~ quote by Philippe Destouches
Posted by: | CommentsToday we’ll have a look at ‘criticism’ – I always try to
refrain from being critical when my wife is doing something
I don’t want to do! Here’s a cartoon that was born out of a
recent decorating project – along with a few of my favourite
quotes…
Sandwich every bit of criticism between two thick layers of
praise. ~ Mary Kay Ash
Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain.. and most fools
do.~ Dale Carnegie
Don’t let anyone say you can’t do it. ~ John Ilhan
And my favourite…Never criticize your spouse’s faults; if it
weren’t for them, your mate might have found someone better
than you! ~ Jay Trachman

‘Here’s the fax, LIVE LIFE TO THE MAX!’
Posted by: | Comments
If you’re going to make the incredible effort to be born, then why not live your life to the MAX. It makes sense, doesn’t it? Why do it half shod? Why only let the throttle out half way? Put your foot flat to the floor, spin the wheels, burn some rubber and let loose with a ‘Yahoo’ as you tear up the road in your supercharged hot rod of a life that is yours to live. Too many of us try to play it safe and at the end of the road we find ourselves trapped in self-imposed security. But you know and I know that there’s only one life to live, so let’s LIVE it.
