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.

I know what you're thinking; "Craig is nuts - he's put a P.S. at the start of his post." Well yes, you're right; I am nuts - but not for that reason. Today P.S. stands for Pre-Script, not Post-Script. I just finished writing today's instalment and realised that I forgot to share some exciting news with you all. Guess what? We're getting a new website! Well, kind of. We're dressing this one up in new clothes. A total make-over for me-dot-com. Panic not, it will be the exact same site (info, posts, content, etc.) but it will look waaaaaay better. I've seen the prototype from our web design and marketing gurus and it's slick-o-rama. My boy Brendon Sinclair and his team from Tailored Web Services up there in the Sunshine State are absolute guns. Needless to say, I'm a little excited 'cause I like new stuff and it will take our site from looking pretty good to cyber-sexy. Totally new layout, colours and look. It should be up in a week or two, so stay tuned. Hi Team..
Hope you're all Living, Laughing, Loving and Learning your way to your best life - doing what you need to do and being the change you want to see in your world. You know the only person who's gonna "fix your life" is you, right? Good, so stop over-thinking, over-analysing, over-talking, over-planning and under-doing... and get to it. My frantic week has amounted to less time at my trusty old keyboard and therefore, less blogging. Depending on my workload outside of the blogosphere, from here on you may find anything from one to five articles in your in-box each week. As a rule, I will endeavour to write three or four articles but on the odd occasion, there may be as little as one post for the week. Needless to say, I'll do my best. If you're struggling for a fix, you can always take a peek at any of the seven hundred articles preceding this one.
Getting to The Self Help Point
Rather than delivering yet another two thousand word personal development monologue that has some of you confused, some nodding off and a few enlightened and inspired, I thought that today I would cut through the Self-Help hyperbole and be brief(er) and ..ahem... blunt. Who'da thought. Hard to believe I know. So just for today, let's by-pass the feel-good cute stories, the clever analogies and metaphors and let's get to the point.
Educated Guessing
Bravely, I've decided to take a few educated guesses about you. I may be right on the money, wildly off track or somewhere in between; you decide. Use what's relevant, meaningful, helpful and appropriate and ignore the rest. In terms of you creating your "best life" and consistently producing better results (whatever that means for you personally), I'm gonna assume a few things about you:
1. You've read enough 2. You've heard enough 3. You know enough 4. You've seen enough 5. You're talented enough 6. You're intelligent enough 7. You have the time (don't confuse not having time with not making the time) 8. You have the reasons (to change)
So with that all in mind, there's a few questions you might want to ask yourself:
1. How do I need to change? 2. Why haven't I already? 3. When will I? 4. How much do I want it? 5. What am I prepared to do to get it? 6. How, when and why do I self-sabotage? 7. What will the consequences of not changing be? 8. What will my life look like in five years if I continue on my current path? 9. What will make me happy? 10. What decisions do I need to make today? 11. What action do I need to take today? 12. What do I need to do differently from now? 13. How uncomfortable am I prepared to get? 14. Why will it be different this time?
Now, you do realise that the value of the above questions comes not from the reading, comprehending and head-nodding, but from the answering, the decision making and the subsequent behavioural change? These questions can be life-changing - if you make them so. Only you can turn your life around. Only you can think for you. Only you can make decisions for you. Only you can face your fears. Only you can change your behaviours. Only your can change your habits. Only you can change your attitude. Only you can change your body. Only you can apply or ignore what you learn here at me-dot-com.
"You are the answer to your problems; everything else is a resource."
It's true; I'm nothing more than a resource to you and my lessons will be as valuable as you make them. Real change is all about you; always has been, always will be. My words will have no power in your world until you do something with them. Until you turn information into action. Until you turn my theory into your reality.
It's also true that most of us know what to do, but all too often don't do what we know. The real challenge for you and I (in our pursuit of excellence) doesn't lie in our lack of knowledge, ability, skill, understanding or opportunity (we have more than enough), it lies in the propensity we have to avoid anything which scares us or makes us uncomfortable.
"If you're not prepared to get uncomfortable, then learn to be happy where you are."
It's true that many of us have a dilemma of sorts; on the one hand we want to be secure, comfortable and safe (in the now), while on the other, we want to produce incredible results into the future and be successful over our lifespan. Avoiding discomfort (at all costs) is a recipe for stagnation, frustration and dysfunction. Doing what scares us, changes us. For the better. Where there is pain, there are lessons to be learned. Where there is adversity, there is strength to be gained and character to be formed.
When you change, your world will change.
