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.

Ever noticed how some people seem to inhabit their problems without really looking for a solution? It's like their problems have almost become their identity. The question for you and I today is not "will we have problems" but rather, "what will we do about them?" For most of us they are a daily reality and in many ways, as painful as we make them. In fact, problems aren't actually problems until we make them that; on some level, it's all a matter of labels and perception - how we see things. Some people have constant problems, some have constant experiences, some have constant challenges and others have an ongoing series of life-lessons; all individual interpretations of, and reactions to, the same thing. So how can we consistently produce better results and become more solution-focused?
Here's my top five tips:
1. Consciously choose to find the good. Choose to be the glass half-full person. Knowingly or not, intentionally or not, some people choose misery because they always choose to find the negative. You say something positive and before the last word has left your lips, they are readying themselves with their negative counter-attack.
2. Acknowledge your problems... and then deal with them. Of course I'm not suggesting that we put our head in the sand and ignore the reality of our situation, but I am suggesting that from time to time we all have a propensity to make the easy, hard. When it comes to managing your challenges, choose to be less emotional, more practical and more strategic and you'll turn your situation around in no time.
3. Ask yourself the right questions. The ones that move you towards the solution and away from the problem. The ones that compel you to take positive action. The "what do I need to do in this situation to create the best outcome" question, is always a good place to start. Followed closely by the "what can I learn from this experience" question.
4. Get some perspective. Problems are all relative. Talk to someone who is dying from cancer and you might realise that you don't have too many problems after all. Or that your big problems are actually minor hurdles. A few years back I went to South Africa to work with children who were living with A.I.D.S. In my first hour there I realised how hard I had made my own life and how very few worries I had.
5. Hang out with people who will pull you up, not drag you down. Negativity is contagious. Hang out with negative people and pretty soon you'll be one. As a wise old philosopher once said "why swim in shit when you can fly with the birds"?
