Well, how did you do?

Today marks the 6 month point for the year and we are halfway through with 2013. Did you achieve what you wanted? Did you achieve more than expected?

I love this part of the year as I like to take time off and reflect on how I did with my goals in the beginning of the year and if that was congruent with my purpose.

If you do not know my purpose it is to lead, inspire, and empower my community to live a proactive life through the principles of chiropractic.

After spending some time reviewing what has been accomplished this year I feel very satisfied and ready for the 2nd half.

The key to reviewing your year is looking at different categories and then laying out goals based on those categories. I call it the 6 P’s and they should all be congruent with your purpose. Below I give you 7 steps you can take right now to create an abundant and amazing 2013. The goal is to complete these by July 1 but try and finish them as soon as possible.

I would love to hear what is going great for you in your life so if you feel comfortable please send me your goals for the 2nd half and what you have accomplished in the first half of the year.

7 Steps to an Amazing Part 2 Of 2013

Step 1: Grab a blank sheet of paper.

Step 2: Go somewhere quiet and define your purpose in life. Write it out on the top of the page.  I believe all of us were put on Earth with a specific purpose and we were intended to fulfill that purpose. If you are having trouble then you can use Google to help you write out a purpose statement.

Sep 3: Create a minimum of 2-3 clear goals for the following categories: People, Professional, Play, Personal, and Prosperity. 

Step 4: Write below each goal the date it will be accomplished.

Step 5: Write what are you willing to give up to achieve this goal. Ex: Less time on Facebook, less TV watching, etc

Step 6: What are 2-3 action steps you are willing to take for each goal to achieve it?

Step 7: Review these goals every morning and watch them unfold and become true. I like to print them out and put on my bathroom mirror. Wherever your focus goes energy flows! Put your focus into yourself and watch the energy be created to give you your greatest life.

EXAMPLE

Purpose – Lead, empower, and inspire my community to live a proactive life through the principles of chiropractic. To be a best friend to my wife.

PEOPLE: Goal: Date night with my wife at least once a week
By When: July 1 – Dec 31
Action Steps: Plan out months date nights a month before.
Have wife put them in her calendar 1 month before
Willing to Give Up: Instead of going to gym at night will go in AM

PROFESSIONAL: Promotions you want to get? Places you want to work? Major tasks completed in your line of work?

PERSONAL:  Seminars you want to attend? Healthier lifestyle patterns you want to add? PS  – Seeing the chiropractor regularly would fall under this category

PLAY: Trips you want to do? Activities you want to plan?

PROSPERITY: How much you want to save? How much you want to earn? Did you buy a new car or buy a new house?

 

How does nicer legs and a tighter rear sound in only 30 days?

I have a simple challenge for you to begin the second of the year and I would love to hear whether you are going to accept or deny this challenge.

I want to help you kickstart those goals and resolutions you made 6 months ago and reignite them for the 2nd half of the year.

The basic and most fundamental movement when it comes to the human body is squatting. We squat many times in a day from sitting at the table to eat, getting in our car, sitting on the toilet, bending down to pick things up, sitting at our desk at work, and other actions we take we get in that position. It is crucial we are good at this movement and also have built strength around it.

If you are looking to get superfit then keep Burst Training and do this challenge and get in great shape. Every person I know that has done this simple challenge has dropped a lot of weight and gotten more fit.

CHALLENGE

For the next 30 days follow this chart and DO NOT MISS A DAY. You CAN break up the squats so when you get to 200 you can do 100 in the AM and 100 in the PM. The squats can be done in your bedroom without any equipment and should not take to long depending on your fitness level. Whether you are in shape or overweight, doing squats helps release growth hormones and helps increase testosterone levels in males. This is huge as many males are getting diagnosed with low T levels and too many doctors are pushing pills down their throats.

Food is changing!

Believe it or not but the food industry is changing fast and unfortunately what used to be called food-by-Earth is quickly becoming food-by-man.

Every day in my car either on my way to work or on my way home I pass by a plane spraying chemtrails in the sky and polluting our beautiful ecosystem.

Enough is enough! If we do not get educated on the facts about whole food based nutrition then we are setting ourselves up for failure in the long haul.

To live the D.R.E.A.M. Lifestyle it is essential that our diet is fully functional, anti-inflammatory, low glycemic, and alkaline for our bodies.

Great news! I can show you how to do this and this is what we will be discussing tomorrow night at 6:30 PM at our Nutrition Protocol workshop. If you plan on attending please reply to this e-mail with your name and how many guests you will be bringing.

I will go through the following:

* How the body uses fats, sugars, and protein for fuel.
* What the food pyramid SHOULD look like
* What tests can you take to see which foods your body is sensitive to
* Great breakfast, lunch, and dinner recipes. 
* How to determine which supplements your body NEEDS
* A quick 3 day cleanse to flush out your system. 
* And much more

If you do not know what D.R.E.A.M. stands for then it is a coined term our office has put together to help you achieve your best life.

D – Diet (Anti-inflammatory, low glycemic, and alkaline)
R – Rest (8 hours uninterrupted)
E – Exercise (functional movements)
A – Alignment (Making sure your nervous system is functioning optimally through chiropractic)
M – Mental attitude (Have a clear conscious that is relaxed and constantly expanding)
