You Will Never Be

Friday, August 27th, 2010

Today is the healthiest you will ever be, unless you start doing something proactive.

You are going downhill every day you aren’t fighting it.

Perhaps it’s the greatest victory we could ever hope to win – the one over ourselves.

You will be in my thoughts and prayers today.

Back To School, Seriously?

Monday, August 23rd, 2010

Yesterday’s post included a You Tube video I shot at Florida Hospital, while going through rehab.

If you don’t have a compelling reason(s) to get healthy and more importantly, to stay healthy, you better go back to school, seriously.

Sunday, August 22nd, 2010

August. Sunday. jeff noel You Tube videos. Short. One-take. Real.

Too Bad There's Not An Express Lane For Self-Discipline

Too Bad There's Not An Express Lane For Self-Discipline

People are very often annoyed by people who know where they are going. It’s easy to hate people who are focused and have enormous self-discipline. Isn’t it? I mean, what part of that is hard?

Those self-motivated go-givers are always having things go their way.

They get all the breaks.

And they have none of the challenges we have. Right?

Truth be told, their lives might be more challenging than yours.

It’s just that they’ve figured out that the two choices we all get to make are the two choices in yesterday’s post.

Not Enough Time In The Day?

Ever have days like this?

Planned to run in the morning, but it didn’t happen.

Planned to go to the gym later, to work out, but it didn’t happen.

Planned to eat well, but it didn’t happen.

What did you tell yourself?

Advice Often Stinks

Advice Often Stinks

Our differences make the world interesting, don’t they? And they also cause conflict.

We all know others who have some expertise where we don’t and vice-versa.

Sometimes we pay cash for the exchange, but mostly we just try to help each other out.

Yesterday at Gold’s Gym, a friend talked of running a 5k. It would be his first.

I’m a good runner, but more than that, I’m an expert at focus and discipline (and motivation).

Do you know what you are an expert at?

I caught myself doling out advice (after it was asked for), but then caught myself a second time – and backed up, to ask a simple question.

“Why do you want to run a 5k?”

Some Are Good, Some Are Bad

Some Are Good, Some Are Bad

Everyday Health is a great resource for health, diet, exercise and wellness article, like this one on 12 reasons you may not be losing weight.

People I’ve known for years don’t think I need to worry about this.

I worry about it every day, which is why it looks like I don’t.

3 Health Tips To Get Better

Monday, August 9th, 2010

Is It On Your Mind Daily?

Is It On Your Mind Daily?

“When the heart speaks, the mind finds it indecent to object.”Milan Kundera

Do you struggle with staying committed to exercising regularly and developing good, solid eating habits?

I think one of the main reasons people (fail) struggle, is because they are not leading their efforts with their heart.

Here are 3 health tips to get better at focus and discipline:

  1. Find a person to be a role-model for (so that failure is not an option)
  2. Start slow and steady
  3. Allow for imperfections, but do not allow quitting

These are the 3 health tips for getting better. But no tips for success will work, if you don’t.
