“Warriors take chances. Like everyone else, they fear failing, but they refuse to let fear control them.”-Ancient Samurai saying

Have you even thought about where you will be five years from today? Starting today to cultivate the ultimate healthy lifestyle will result in you pretty much being where ever you want to be in five years. The most important thing that stands between you and the realization of your dreams is action. You have to start formulating a plan, then working it.

Have you noticed the similarity between the words discipline and disciple. To get the most out of life we need to become disciples of life and put forth the discipline necessary to make our lives what we want them to be. The first step is the hardest.

The most common thread that connects the majority of people who allow chance to direct their lives is fear. Anyone who tells you they are not afraid of anything is either lying or a fool. The ones that make their lives work for them take the courage to move through their fear. Once you are on the other side of your fear it becomes easier.

Ask yourself what is it that you want out of life. Decide on the steps necessary to achieve your goal. Then ask yourself if you are willing to take those steps. If the answer is yes begin with the first step. Do not let fear and doubt stop you. If the answer is no let it go and either resign yourself to remaining where you are or find another goal that you are willing to put forth the energy to make it happen.

Remember life is for the living. To be truly alive one must risk and have faith that everything works out for the best. Look back on your life and notice that no matter how hard it was it always worked out. You are you because of your experiences. If they had been different you would be someone else.

TODAY’S TIP: Remember, life will always take care of you as long as you stay out of your own way. Work on getting in touch with your intuition and cultivate the faith to follow it.

Are you willing and able to take that first step?
