Fear of Change

The Law of Transformation and Creation states: Emotions transform energy; energy creates movement; movement is change; and change is the essence of life.

More than the fear of death, it's often the fear of change that keeps people stuck in a cycle of self-destruction and self-defeat.

When you're able to embrace change, follow your heart, and go with the flow, you're emotionally flowing through life, and life is emotionally flowing through you.

The Big Question

No matter how you make a living or who you think you work for, you only work for one person, yourself.

The big question is: What are you selling, and to whom?

Resistance Training For Older Adults

People lose 30 percent of their muscle strength between ages 50 and 70. Combat muscle loss with resistance training 3 to 4 times per week.

Keeping our muscles from going flabby isn’t just a matter of vanity. Our muscles help us perform everyday activities and allow us to stay mobile and independent as we get older. We lose 30 percent of our muscle strength between the ages of 50 and 70. However, we can thwart physical deterioration by practicing progressive resistance training — weight-bearing exercises that gradually become more difficult as our body adjusts to the effort.
Research in people over the age of 60 found that participants reaped the most physical benefits when resistance training was performed at higher intensities.
To increase muscle strength, reduce the risk of falls and improve coordination, the study recommends performing three sets of eight to 12 repetitions per muscle group three or four times per week.

Acting "As If"

"All that is necessary to break the spell
of inertia and frustration is this:
Act as if it were impossible to fail."

Dorthea Brande

Yes and No

In the beginning, you need to say “yes” to a lot of things to discover and establish your goals.
Later on, you need to say “no” to a lot of things and concentrate on your goals.

Vitamin D

Dancing In The Rain

"Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass.
It's about learning how to dance in the rain."
