Nutrition cut through the dietary confusion and
contradiction for you.
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
ability to be able to get in shape for events (weddings, parties, reunions
and birthdays), if only we'd get in shape for life.

Did you know that over the last two years I have written and published nearly six hundred articles on this site? Plus a bunch more for various magazines. Most of them with some component of education, motivation, insight and/or inspiration. And the odd splash of humour. As somebody said to me the other day "shit you write a lot." And yep, I do. I'm totally passionate about and committed to what I do; helping people change their lives. Amazingly, some people have read everything I've ever written here at me-dot-com. But even more amazing is the fact that some who have read everything... have applied absolutely nothing!
Read with Caution...
We all understand that change doesn't come from reading (only) right? It happens when we turn the theory into a practical reality; from doing what we know, not from knowing what to do. To me it seems that some people just aren't serious about change. They act serious but that's all they do; act. They are performers, not doers. They say the right things but they never actually follow through. You know them. You could even bethem from time to time. They talk about it and think about it almost incessantly but they just don't want it badly enough. For whatever reason, they're just not willing to do what it takes. Talk to them and they will rationalise, justify and explain why they're not doing what they know they should. They've been almost doing things for years. While they are finding an excuse, people who are serious (about creating their best life) are finding a way. While they are immersed in the problem, people like me are all about the solution. I used to be much more tolerant with the career excuse-makers and procrastinators but twenty-something years down the track I am sick of their crap, their delusional thinking, their mental and emotional weakness and their constant bullshit. There. I said it. Harsh? Maybe. Honest? Definitely.
I feel better.
No More Pointless Conversations
These days I only want to work with people who are actually ready to do what's necessary to create life-long positive change. I'm not interested in having more meaningless, unproductive, pointless conversations with people who have no real intention of doing what needs to be done; people who are more interested in getting sympathy and attention than they are in learning, growing and doing. The idea (of change) appeals to them but the reality of it is another story. I'm too busy for any more pseudo conversations. I used to wonder how many of my articles it would take. And then I would remind myself that I can't change anybody but me. Some people will read one of my articles and change their life, while others will read everything I've ever written and never change a thing. Why? Because it's not about what I write, it's about what people do with what I write. It's about whether people use the information. Use their potential. Use their opportunities. Do what needs to be done... as opposed to what's comfortable, convenient and easy.
Craig the Romance Novelist
I am constantly being told by people that they love the way I teach, my writing style and my honesty (of course some hate it too). Well that's nice and I appreciate the support, but what I'm really after is reports of incredible results. Amazing change. Yes I want people to enjoy my writing, my thoughts and my lessons but what I want more is transformed lives. Writing for the sake of writing is not rewarding and not what I'm about. As a personal development writer (sorry about that wanky label) mentor, coach and educator, if my writing doesn't impact lives in a real, practical and measurable way, then what's the point? I may as well write romance novels.
There's a thought.
"It was a warm summer evening as he ambled slowly towards the homestead; a walk he thought he'd never make again. It had been four long years at war but through the kitchen window and the fading light she couldn't help but recognise that unmistakable silhouette. For a moment she thought it was a dream. Her heart skipped a beat, her mind raced and she ran like a young girl to the front door. He reached the verandah, dropped his bag, opened his arms and without speaking a single word their lips met..."
Okay, perhaps not.
Er, aaaah, ummm....
Being a personal development writer who is expected to churn out high volume (the nature of blogging) and high quality work is often a tough gig but that's okay; I don't mind tough. To be honest, there have been a few times when I have sat at my computer and thought "what can I possibly say today that hasn't already been said? Or how can I say it in a way which will have more impact on my readers?" I guess there have been times when I have put too much pressure on myself to help people produce results but then I remember, I'm only the writer and YOU are the doer. So I'll write and you do.
