What Can You Accomplish?

Monday, August 11th, 2008

And how are you going to accomplish that goal?

What is the most difficult aspect of accomplishing any goal? Taking the first step! We all have many good ideas each day but the true hurdle is in implementing the idea. Have you ever seen something in the market-place and thought to yourself, “I thought of that years ago!” Well guess what, so did somebody else, only they had the imagination to implement the idea! You know what though, you can implement ideas too! The most difficult part is taking the first step, especially if you don’t really know where it is you’re going!

That’s how you make positive changes though. Take steps even if you don’t know what the outcome is going to be, learn, grow, and when you arrive somewhere different tomorrow you will have an alternate perspective in which to assess your situation. Do you want to build a really cool website? Well, from my experience, you’ll need to build a couple awful ones first! That goes with anything. In order to be successful at something, you must fail many times in order to become good at what your trying to achieve. You can’t step up to the tee and out-drive Tiger Woods, but that shouldn’t stop you from getting up to the tee and trying until you do!

Eating Healthy

What’s for dinner?

If you’re like me, you have a tough time eating healthy. It’s tough to get the right amount of the daily food groups if you live a busy lifestyle. What I try to do is mix it up as much as possible. One day I’ll have meats and breads, maybe some dairy, and then the next day I’ll have fruits and vegetables, etc. Some days I try to get them all in but I believe the key is to just mix it up as much as possible. I also try to abstain from fatty foods and sweets as much as possible, though they do slip in there on occasion!

Below you can see a picture of my dinner tonight. This plate, with a bowl of cheerios and a glass of orange juice has been my dinner a couple times in the last week. I think this is my favorite meal right now!

Fruit Plate

If you find yourself eating a lot of fast food and sweets, I urge you to give the above meal a chance one night this week. After you start eating healthy you will find that you start to feel better and think more clearly. Throw in some exercise and you are well on your way to becoming a new person! The old saying “you are what you eat,” is very true. What else can your body be made of other than what you put into it? It’s not like you are regenerating your cells out of star dust or anything like that, so take heed to what you are putting in your body and you will live a longer healthier life. Once you start feeling better and having more energy, you can use that energy and new outlook on life to make this a better place for everyone to live.

Start eating some fresh fruit, lean meats, nuts, salads, and other healthy food and I promise you that within a month you will be amazed at how great you feel. I exercise about 5 times a week as well, but even if you can start at about 2 or 3 times a week, your progress will increase exponentially. I’m excited about the future and I’m very excited for your future if you start doing the good things too! For those of you that already eat healthy and exercise regularly, you know exactly what I’m talking about. For those of you that don’t, jump on board with us!

Subrogation Proclamation

When will it end?

Thank you for your hard work, time, money, family, possessions, rights, claims, freedom, intentions, love, and free will. Now, let me introduce you to your middle man. This middle man is assigned to your case. He has a middle man that you can call at any time should you have any questions for your primary middle man (Me, the surrogate). If the middle man of your surrogate is unavailable, please call his assistant.

Thank you sir, may I have another?

Have you seen the movie “Idiocracy”? That movie is about the dumbing down of society. How many times can we delegate and outsource responsibility, caring, love, family, and national debt before it comes back to bite us in the *ss? It’s about time that we start taking responsibility for our actions, or otherwise continue to live with our heads in the sand. If we’re going to live with our heads in the sand, then please stop putting people in prison for using drugs for starts. I could care less if someone is a heroin addict if we are going to be owned by China. Are you kidding me? Do you really think that I’m so stupid that I can not even think on semi-conscious level for myself? What’s unfortunate is that a lot of us can not think for ourselves. We’ve been taught by society, family, friends, and everyone we come in contact with that this is the right way to think and live. I give respect to those of you that can think for yourselves and can see the truth. Consider yourselves truly blessed. One thing that’s great about this country we live in is that even though our government and corporations try to pump tons of nonsense and propaganda down our throats, we still have mechanisms in place that give us many opportunities to think for ourselves (thanks to our forefathers).

Think outside the box. Imagine yourself on an island with a few hundred people and yourself as the leader. What kind of society are you going to create? What knowledge are you going to allow the people to have? What rules are you going to ask them to abide by?

What matters the most to you and how are you going to improve your current situation and the society you live in? It takes guts to go against the grain so do what you can to make this country a better place to live for yourself and your children. Vote, take action, think outside the box, and change the world.
