Fattitude
- Craig Harper
While many books focus on food,
Craig teaches that creating life-long change is more about the
dieter, than the actual diet. This book is perfect for people who have a
history of 'almost' getting in shape.
DVD
or CD - Renovate Your Body In this entertaining presentation, Craig discusses the
notion of Renovating Your Body - once and for all. Many of us have a curious

and birthdays), if only we'd get in shape for life.

Have you ever noticed how some people don't actually make significant decisions in their life? Significant as in... life-changing, reality-shaping, destiny-determining decisions.
You know, the big ones.
It's like they've done a course... 'Decision Evasion 101: How to Live a Decision-less Life'. Or that other one... 'Seven Easy Steps to 70 Years of Frustration.'
Sure, they're pretty good with the "I think I'll have the oats and not the toast" decisions... but beyond that, they struggle. Not you of course... but perhaps someone you know.
Life seems to happen around them. And to them. In spite of them, even.
Rather than creating their best life, they seem to endure a crap one. Sad really. And completely unnecessary.
Amazing is a choice. If you didn't know that... you do now. No excuses. Don't give me "yeah but, yeah but"... I'm sick of "yeah but" and you should be too.
Some people will get up today and do exactly what they did yesterday. Even though they hated yesterday. And they will tell others.."I have no choice."
We always have choices. If not always with what happens... we can always choose how we respond, react, cope. What we do. And don't do.
A friend of mine has been given three months to live on numerous occasions. She has had six different types of cancer, is still fighting the fight and still receiving treatment. She has chosen to have an amazing life despite her illness and despite her situation because her illness (situation, circumstance) doesn't define her, her choices and her attitude does.
She chooses to have good days. She chooses to be exceptional. She chooses to inspire others. She chooses to survive. And she chooses to do the best she can, where she is, with what she's got.
Good choices Michelle (xxx)
Some people subscribe to the 'destiny is predetermined' school of thought. And the Doris Day 'whatever will be, will be' paradigm. What a waste of a life. And potential. I guess (they believe) it's much easier than having to be accountable and responsible for what they do and don't achieve in their life.
"Yeah but what can I do....these are the cards I was dealt?"
"Well, I guess you could roll over, give up, embrace that defeatist attitude and let the world walk all over you.... there's a plan."
They don't take charge of their life. They don't control their own destiny. They don't use their potential. They don't take chances. They live in a constant holding pattern. Treading water in a sea of frustration.
Letting others make decisions for them. Surrendering their power to people who don't care about them. And drowning in mediocrity when amazing is only a decision or two away.
Some of them won't even think about making that life-changing decision. Largely out of fear. And apathy. So they 'accept' their reality. They give up. They resign themselves to a life they never planned or wanted.
As a teacher and coach, this upsets me the most; seeing beautiful, amazing, talented people living a life of complete compromise. They wait for a miracle. A white knight perhaps. Hoping that their life might 'turn out' amazing.
They use dis-empowering expressions like "oh well, we'll see what happens", when they could be saying "I'll tell you what's gonna happen... "
But the irony is that by not making a decision, they are making a decision.
All positive change starts with a decision, a moment in time when an individual says "that's it, I'm doing it..." and they actually mean it. All successful businesses, projects, and worthwhile personal endeavours start with an idea or thought, followed by a decision. If we never make the decision (no matter how difficult that process may be), we can never create the change we so desperately desire.
To live an effective, fulfilling, rewarding life we need to become effective decision makers... there is no escaping this fact, so get your head around it. Whatever you've achieved to this point in time (as in RIGHT NOW sitting there on your computer) is not necessarily ANY indication of what's possible for your future. You may wanna read that sentence again.
We don’t know why, but people go crazy for these shirts. Perhaps it’s because they allow us to tell people what we really think without wasting our breath! Order your shirt here.
