Wealth Beyond Reason is what the website is called, but in actuality it talks about how our thoughts create our lives.
What are you thinking right now? Is this moving your life to where you want to be? or are you just thinking the “same old, same old” that is responsible for where your life is now?
“Everything in your life will continue to be exactly the same as it always has been. Because you will not allow your thinking to change. Your belief system - the one that you’re so comfortable with, and yet has so far failed to deliver you a life of unbridled joy and abundance - will stay intact.Nothing will change.
However, if you’ll allow yourself to realize that sometimes the things that seem the most unbelievable are what end up being true, then you’re opening a door to a whole new world of possibility.”
I visit this fabulous website every week … for motivation, encouragement and information. Be sure to check it out. Wealth Beyond Reason

I am really enjoying the Fit over Forty book. Loads of great information, none of which is trying to convince you that you will turn into a skinny mini in less than 30 days!
But BEST is all the built in motivation. There are over 50 stories from Fit Over Forty people from all walks of life. They all have different takes on why they have been successful. When you see the bikini clad 77 year old, you will just DIE! WOW. My body didn’t look like that when I was 20!
If you want to see a FREE, four chapter sneak preview of the book sign up for the newsletter and they will send you the link … no strings attached and NO big sales spiel. You’ve got to get it just to see the inspiring photos!

Many of you have probably guessed … I’m over 40. If you hadn’t guessed, PLEASE feel free to continue imaging me as a 20 year old … because according to this program, I could end up rebuilding my body to the muscularity of a 20 or 30 year old! I really LIKE that idea. But what I really like about this program is this statement:
The real “magic” happens when you work on the outside using exercise and nutrition while working on the inside using the hidden power of your mind… Fit Over 40 will teach you how to tap into the power of thoughts, beliefs and core values to skyrocket you to success.
This blog is all about changing your body by changing your mind … and this program builds “changing your mind” in. Here’s an article from one of the writers:
How Words Become Our Worlds

It’s been said that to feel fear is normal. The object is to go through it anyway. The true test of courage is not fearlessness, but the power to overcome one’s fears. A feeling of “pull” to something away from your true path is quite similar. To experience a surge of want for that piece of chocolate cake or that slice of pizza is quite normal. What you must choose is to differentiate the truth from the feelings you’re experiencing. When you begin to realize that you are literally ‘lying’ to yourself when you say, “Man, I’m starving!”, or, “I just HAVE to have some chocolate!”, you’re one step closer to separating yourself from the “thoughts of the masses”. These thoughts are, quite frankly, cobble stones on Mediocre Street. I think you want more. I know I do.
I enjoy pizza and chocolate cake. Most humans do, although I know many will not admit it in the fitness industry. However, “enjoy” and “love” is two different things-and I use these words specifically and for a very good reason. “Love” is a very strong emotion, and the subconscious has no way of telling the difference between degrees of love. That’s the job of the conscious mind. You are literally using the same word you use for your mother, or your spouse, as you are a piece of cake! It’s rather silly, isn’t it? Some of this stems from fear, believe it or not. We fear not having the ‘correct’ thing to say. It’s natural to say what you feel before you think it through. For many people such a process is frightening in a way. So, here’s the challenge-you must start using the thoughts and the language of the fearless.
As I wrote in “Fit Over 40“, our words literally become our world. What we say has a way of manifesting itself into reality. Trust me, I’m not going all mystical on you, but think about it-how often do you actually say, “You know, it’s like the entire world loves me!” No-it’s more like, “Why does everyone at work hate me?” Or perhaps, “Why can’t I ever lose weight?” Do you see the connection? You’re literally asking yourself a question, and your subconscious mind is going to do its best to literally answer it.
The last thing you want to be doing if you seek to manage your weight and your life is ask a negative question. Any question you can think of can be rephrased into a positive question. This is NOT positive thinking-this is truthful thinking. Why lie to yourself? And, if you choose to, why on EARTH make it a negative lie? Asking why the world hates you is every bit as much of a lie as stating that everyone in the world loves you-yet we opt for the former over the latter every time. Try the latter if you have to lie! It’s much more fun, and I bet you’ll notice a difference in how you view the world in return.
Instead of asking, “Why am I so fat?” try asking, “How can I become lean and healthy?” If you want to step it up a notch, add some real emotion to the question! “How can I become lean, muscular and incredibly healthy while enjoying every minute of the process?”
There’s much more about the thoughts of the ageless covered in our best-selling e-book, Fit Over 40, available today by visiting FIT OVER FORTY.

Commitment.

I joined up for the President’s Challenge last week … and have only made ONE entry so far.
I’ve actually gone on several short walks, but forgot to time them and didn’t log them.
Bummer. At this rate it will take me 3 years to get my Bronze Medal! Got to get into ACTION here!
It really IS all about COMMITTMENT!
i commit to walking everyday AND to logging it into my walking log.
I COMMIT to walking everyday and to LOGGING it into my walking log.
