Introduction

Well, well, well, folks, let's talk about aging, shall we? Even the worlds most attractive people, or in this case, celebrities, can't escape the march of time. But here's the juicy part – some age like fine wine, while others... well, let's just say they age like milk left out in the sun.

Now, over the past year, you might've noticed a few famous faces who seem to have hit the fast-forward button on aging. It's like they've aged more than a vampire in direct sunlight. But then there are those legends from the '80s and '90s who still look smokin' hot today. They're like the Benjamin Buttons of Hollywood.

But here's the deal, my friends, the choices you make now are like seeds you plant for the future. Your diet, your supplements – they're not just about how you look in the mirror, they're about how you'll feel in 10 or 20 years. Every line and crease on your face? Well, they could be like little warning signs from your body, telling you something ain't quite right.

Ever heard of metabolic syndrome? It's like the supervillain created from all the bad choices you've made over the years. And guess what? It can take a good 20 to 30 years for the full impact to hit you like a freight train.

Now, here's the twist – we can't change the past, no matter how many time-traveling devices we invent. But you can definitely do something about your future. It's like a choose-your-own-adventure book, but instead of battling dragons, you're fighting aging.

So, go ahead, make those healthier choices, my fellow adventurers. Your future self will thank you. 

Skin Conditions

Ah, let's talk about the myths and mysteries of our skin, my fellow adventurers. You see, once upon a time, we pointed our fingers at the sun and accused it of causing cancer. But here's the plot twist – it's not the sun's fault! Nope, it's our own organs playing a sneaky game.

Picture this: your organs are like little detectives, pushing toxins out through your skin. And what does the sun do? It bakes those toxins right into your skin, creating a recipe for cancer. It's like a game of hide and seek gone horribly wrong.

Now, let's talk about the skin drama – dryness, acne, white spots, and freckles. Blame it on the diet villains – fried foods and animal products like meats and cheeses. They're like the supervillains of skincare, leaving your skin looking like a battlefield.

And then there are those pesky varicose veins. They're like the red flags of poor circulation, waving at you from your legs. Sedentary lifestyle and a diet filled with sugars, breads, and alcohol? Yeah, they're the culprits.

But here's the plot twist you've been waiting for: the older you get, the more your face shows the signs of organ congestion. It's like a road map of your life choices, etched onto your skin.

But fear not, my fellow explorers! There are places in this world, like Okinawa, Japan, and Sardinia, Italy, where people age like fine wine. They're like the superheroes of healthy living, staying active and munching on a diet that's a skincare dream.

So, what's the key to slowing down or even reversing the aging process? It's all about detoxing those organs, my friends. So, treat it right, and it'll treat you right.

Minerals

Deep seawater (DSW) commonly refers to a body of seawater that is pumped up from a depth of over 200 m. It is usually associated with the following characteristics: low temperature, high purity, and is rich with nutrients, namely, beneficial elements, which include magnesium, calcium, potassium, chromium, selenium, zinc, and vanadium. Less photosynthesis of plant planktons, consumption of nutrients, and organic decomposition have caused lots of nutrients to remain there. Due to this, DSW has the potential to become a good source of health. Research has proven that DSW can help overcome health problems especially related to lifestyle-associated diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, cancer, and skin problems.

Sulfur

Sulfur is the foundation of beauty because it plays an important role in the body and is necessary for the synthesis of certain key proteins. For example, it is needed for the synthesis of glutathione, which acts as a potent antioxidant, protecting your cells from damage. It is the building blocks of hair, skin, and tissue. Sulfur can be found in two amino acids in food: methionine and cysteine (Methylsulfonylmethane or MSM.). It's primarily derived from dietary proteins, such as beef, fish, and poultry. However, there are vegetarian sources such as cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, kale, watercress, and mustard greens.

[adrotate group="32"]

Silica

Silica is vital for building strong bones and the #1 source of silica is bamboo. The Chinese use bamboo in many of their foods. Horsetail, (the herb, not the animal) and stinging nettles are also a very good source of silica. Animal sources provide much lower levels of silica than plant sources. The refining and processing of foods reduces the amount of silica content, and soils are often depleted of this mineral. Good food sources of silica include unrefined cereals, apples, cherries, almonds, oranges, fish, oats, and seeds.

[adrotate group="32"]

Bentonite Clay

Bentonite clay is a natural clay with a fine, soft texture. It forms a paste when mixed with water. Some people use this paste for medical or cosmetic benefits, such as treating rashes and acne or as a hair mask. You can mix this up at home or you may also consider mixing it with Alvera or apple cider vinegar which pull toxins out of the body. The most common, and probably the most convenient way to introduce Bentonite clay into your diet is by simply adding it to water. Add half a teaspoon to a glass of water, ensuring that you stir well, and drink straight away before it 'sets'.

[adrotate group="32"]

Omega 6

Along with omega-3 fatty acids, omega-6 fatty acids play a crucial role in brain function, and normal growth and development. As a type of polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), omega-6s help stimulate skin and hair growth, maintain bone health, and regulate metabolism. It also maintains the reproductive system. Seeds like sunflower, pumpkin, and hemp seeds contain omega 6 which are the same type of oils that are in the skin.

[adrotate group="32"]

Greens

Leafy green vegetables are an important part of a healthy diet. They're packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber but low in calories. Eating a diet rich in leafy greens can offer numerous health benefits including reduced risk of obesity, heart disease, high blood pressure, and mental decline. By eating food sources such as kale, lettuce, spinach, and mustard greens will help to ensure a healthy blood flow. These greens are responsible for increasing enzymes in the liver that help promote the blood detoxification process.

[adrotate group="32"]

Antioxidants

Antioxidants are substances that may protect your cells against free radicals, which may play a role in heart disease, cancer, and other diseases. Free radicals are molecules produced when your body breaks down food or when you're exposed to tobacco smoke or radiation. Astaxanthin is the highest form of antioxidants with plant-based foods being the best sources. These include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds, herbs and spices, and even cocoa. As a bonus, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains high in antioxidants are also typically high in fiber, low in saturated fat and cholesterol, and good sources of vitamins and minerals. Another very potent antioxidant comes from red algae and berries.

Aloe Vera

Aloe vera is a medicinal plant that’s been used to treat various health conditions for thousands of years. It’s safe to use directly from the plant or you can buy it in gel form.

Aloe vera creams, gels, and ointments contain the clear gel found in aloe vera leaves. These products can be applied topically to treat various skin conditions. Aloe is sold in capsule or liquid form to take internally to promote health and well-being as well.

The gel within the skin of the aloe vera plant contains many beneficial vitamins and nutrients, including vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, C, E, and folic acid, iron, sodium, copper, zinc, calcium, potassium, chromium, magnesium, and manganese. This healing plant is known for its benefits to both the inside and outside of the human body.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C has been shown to stabilize collagen mRNA, thus increasing collagen protein synthesis for repair of the damaged skin. This occurs concurrently with a decrease in elastin production; the elastin protein is often overproduced in response to photodamage.  Fruits with the highest sources of Vitamin C to help in counteracting these deficits include mangos, papayas, pineapples, kiwis, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, watermelons, cranberries, cantaloupe, and citrus fruits such as oranges and grapefruits. There are also supplements but it is best if they come from natural food choices.

[adrotate group="32"]

Herbs

These natural wonders can also be secret ingredients in your skincare regimen. Many spices contain high levels of antioxidants, anti-inflammatory agents, and nutrients your skin and hair need to look healthy.

Some of the best anti-aging herbs you should include in your diet now to reap their benefits are basil, Guduchi, ashwagandha, amla, turmeric, ginseng, and Gotu-kola.

Deer Antler

People use deer antler velvet as medicine for a wide range of health problems. Deer velvet is used to boost strength and endurance, build your immune system, counter the effects of stress, and promote rapid recovery from illness.

In the Chinese culture, they have used deer antlers for 5,000 years. It is the second most used herb in Chinese medicine.

Chaga

Chaga mushrooms are non-toxic with extremely high amounts of antioxidants. These mushrooms differ from other mushrooms, as they grow by extracting nutrients from living trees instead of dead ones. Chaga mushrooms primarily grow on birch trees and are only found in the coldest locations of the northern hemisphere. In addition to this exclusivity, Chaga mushrooms take at least five years to mature, and are very rare. Also, they cannot be cultivated.  Attempts to cultivate them have resulted in significantly reduced and different bioactive constituents. You can buy them online in extract form.

Dong Quai

Dong Quai is used for menstrual cramps, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and menopausal symptoms. It is also used orally as a "blood purifier"; to manage hypertension, infertility, joint pain, ulcers, "tired blood" (anemia), and constipation; and in the prevention and treatment of allergic attacks. You can buy it in tea form or capsules and can be found online.

[adrotate group="32"]

Fo-ti

Fo-ti is generally used to relieve constipation. It's also used to treat acne, athlete's foot, and scrapes. Red fo-ti is considered an energy tonic. TCM practitioners believe it can help restore the color of graying hair, combat premature aging, and offset erectile dysfunction. It can be purchased online primarily in capsule form.

[adrotate group="32"]

Jiaogulan 

Also known as the immortality herb (Gynostemma pentaphyllum), Jiaogulan is a dramatic climbing vine that belongs to the cucumber and gourd family. When used regularly, tea from the immortality herb plant is believed to promote a long, healthy, disease-free life. It is the #1 most used herb in Chinese medicine.

[adrotate group="32"]

Licorice Root

A recent study published in the New England Journal of Medicine concluded that ingredients in licorice suppress sexual libido. It can help treat a variety of ailments, including respiratory conditions and digestive distress. Its plant compounds demonstrate potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial effects. Roots of the pea-like plant, Glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice root), from which licorice is extracted, contain active ingredients that may in part act by interfering with testosterone production. Health products that contain licorice include herbal and licorice-flavored cough mixtures, throat pearls, licorice tea, licorice-flavored diet gum, laxatives (including cascara and compound licorice powder).

[adrotate group="32"]

Schisandra Berry

Schisandra is used for preventing early aging and increasing lifespan, normalizing blood sugar and blood pressure, stimulating the immune system, and speeding recovery after surgery. It is also used for treating liver disease (hepatitis) and protecting the liver from poisons. You can purchase these berries in supplement form.

[adrotate group="32"]

Red Rasberry

Vitamin C and antioxidants in raspberries can reduce the signs of aging such as black spots or wrinkles. For those of you who are active in outdoor activities, you might want to consume raspberries to protect your skin from UV damage. The antioxidants and ellagic acid in raspberries can keep the skin healthy and rejuvenate it.

[adrotate group="32"]

Stinging Nettles

Stinging Nettles have a long history of use as a medicinal aid. Stinging nettle, or Urtica dioica, is a common plant that grows in the United States, Canada, and Europe. It primarily grows in damp, fertile soil. The nettle has sharp hairs on its leaves. Nettle has "a range of health benefitting bioactive compounds" and "a better amino acid profile than most of the other leafy vegetables".

There is nettle leaf flour and tea that you can purchase. In flour form, it has an earthy flavor. The flour has three times more protein than wheat or barley and less than half the carbohydrates.

NEWS FLASH! A 3,000-year-old diet secret has been re-discovered - to be able to eat what you want, never go hungry, and still lose weight! Read on to learn more.

A major flaw in today's diet and fitness industry is that most diets require you to make large changes too quickly which makes it difficult for your brain to adapt. You can become discouraged. So you soon slip back into your same old bad habits as they are comfortable for you. We recommend you use what we call a transition diet. This approach has you making small changes over time that will give you the substantial results you desire and the highest chance of reaching your goals.  It also makes it more manageable.  

Most people are constantly eating large meals throughout the day and don't allow their bodies time to digest their food to start burning fat. Any activity you do within the first 2 stages of your body's digestive process only burns the food and sugars you just ate. You will need to work harder to burn off your fat reserves. According to an article published on Mayoclinic.org, you need to burn 3,500 more calories than you take in to lose 1 lb. This is why it is difficult for most people to lose weight because of the types of high-fat foods they are eating. However, by learning to eat in the proper stage of your digestion you will start burning fat more readily.

See article: https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/weight-loss/in-depth/calories/art-20048065

The first step is eating what you want, never going hungry, and still losing weight is by postponing your eating at the beginning of your day for as long as possible. In other words, you skip breakfast. Fill up on liquids and when you do eat, you can eat anything you want with what is known in the diet and fitness industry as intermittent fasting.

Strategies such as eating later in the day may seem new at first, but by quenching your thirst throughout the day, you are more likely to lose weight. What many of you believe is hunger is thirst. Most people confuse the two! If you wait until you are thirsty, it means you are already dehydrated. Don't wait until you are thirsty to drink something.

Greg Gallagher of Kinobody suggests to fill up on coffee because it's an appetite suppressant. You can still get your morning Starbucks, however, I'm not a big fan of coffee so every morning I would go to McDonald's and order a large sweet tea at around 7:30 AM while I did my computer work online. I would get 4 or 5 cups of ice filled with tea that would fill me up for the day. Sometimes I would not eat until 8 pm when I became hungry and I would go to eat at Taco Bell or another fast-food restaurant. 

I’ve never been fat however, I do have what is called skinny fat. I look fine until I take my shirt off so I lost 20 lbs in 2 months not by dieting but by changing the patterns in which I ate. 

Ariana Grande is just one Celebrity who is reported to do intermittent fasting. When you look at what she looked like when she was on her Nickelodeon show and what she looks like now after doing intermittent fasting. There is a noticeable difference.

When people are in great physical shape, others make negative comments that they are not normal people because they don't believe the average person can achieve a body like what we see above. There are so many typical people just like you and me that find, by changing the way we eat and when they look and feel like "superhumans". 

Chances are you are not trying to get in the same physical shape as a fitness model. You might just like to lose between 20 and 30 lbs and be a healthier person. The extra bodyweight you carry puts your health at risk. When you lose weight you can see a variety of health benefits. Some of these include Decreased risk of diabetes, lowered blood pressure, improved cholesterol levels, decreased risk of heart disease, and certain cancers. You will see improved mobility, decreased joint pain and improved blood sugar levels to name a few.

Skipping breakfast sounds scary to a lot of people however, YOU WILL NOT GET HUNGRY. The reason we feel hungry every couple of hours is that if you eat bread, pasta, and foods that spike your blood sugar, when it drops it makes you hungry. Remember, if you feel hungry you may just be thirsty. Throughout much of human history, we didn't have food around us 24/7 as we do in the American culture today. We had to hunt and gather for our food. Thus the strategy of the 3,000-year-old diet.

Now you may have heard that you need to keep your metabolism going by eating every 3 hours. In some cases, this works but most people are not eating a strict enough diet for this to be effective. Most people who believe they are eating healthy are eating what we call fake health food.  Food that is marketed as healthy may not be. When you read the labels carefully, you realize they are not what they seem. The most common unhealthy foods include highly-processed items “such as fast foods and snack foods,” says Vilma Andari, M.S. “Highly-processed foods tend to be low in nutrients (vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants) and high on empty calories due to the content of refined flours, sodium, and sugar.”

Now let's look at the science behind why this works. We have enzymes in our body that digest our food however when these enzymes have no food to break down it can work on repairing our body instead. In the documentary "Eat, Fast & Live Longer" there have been 100's of years of proof and new scientific discoveries showing that eating this way is linked to a long life, along with other health benefits linked to fasting.

Directions
1) Skip breakfast and postpone eating for as long as possible.
2) Fill up on low-calorie liquids
3) If you are hungry it's because you're not drinking enough liquids and when you do eat you're eating the wrong foods
4) When you choose intermittent fasting you can eat what you want and still lose weight

Intermittent fasting also boosts brainpower, improves sexual performance, boosts testosterone, and helps you to live a healthier life for many years.

Making friends used to not be a skill, however, because we are more connected through technology than at any other single point in history on the other hand because of the lack of true connection, as a society, we are also the most lonely. 

The Book “Lose Connections” shows that years ago people had a group of people that they could turn to during a crisis, however, today when you ask who you could turn to during a crisis, most people have no one to turn to.

People share their life moments on Instagram, which makes you believe they have close friends. There is a difference between having playmates, someone you enjoy spending time doing things together with, and a friend who is there in the best of times and the worst of times.

In fact, it may be when things are going well for you, you will see who your true friends are because a true friend will celebrate your successes because a true friend is someone who wants the best for you. 

Some people only have companions in their life when things are going bad for them because they are having a rough life and need someone to share their bad experiences with, but once you start to make improvements in your life the relationship changes.

Depression, anxiety, and emotional problems are a warning sign from the body that something is not right. We experience a series of emotional problems because we live outside of the bounds nature that has intended us to release the hormones of stress, constricting our blood vessels, increasing our chance of early death by 50%.

The book “Lose Connections’ bring out loneliness is as unhealthy as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.

Our society has convinced us that we should be able to do things on our own and have a spirit of independence but when you look in nature there are no species that can survive without the assistance of another species.

In nature, humans were able to take down spices larger and faster than us because we worked together in teams.

In order to find a good friend, we have to understand what good friends are. I don’t believe most people understand what it means to be and have a good friend because we have already stated that a playmate is someone who keeps the company and a friend is someone who shares your values.

In the bible at (Proverbs 17:17), it describes what a true friend is when it states that “a true companion is loving all the time, and is a brother that is born for when there is distress.”  

You have probably found that you have befriended people who are false friends. The Bible even says (Proverbs 18:24) that “there exist companions disposed to break one another to pieces.” That might sound extreme. But consider: Have you ever had a “friend” who took advantage of you? What about one who talked behind your back or who would spread false rumors about you? Such an experience can shatter your trust.􏰀 Always remember that when it comes to friends, quality is more important than quantity! 

What traits in your friends do you find admirable? If only negative traits come to mind, it might be time to look for better friends! 

The more desperate you are for friends, the more likely you will be to settle for the wrong kind.

Nothing impacts the results of your life more than the people you spend the most time with. Science has proven that our life is a reflection of the 5 people we spend the most time with. There are studies that show if you have an overweight friend that lives 100 miles away from you, it can increase your odds of being overweight. 

Proverbs 13:20 says: “those walking with wise will become wise and those having deaths with the stupid one will fare badly.

Your friends can make or break you! They can influence you positively or your friends can ruin your life. Daymon John from Shark Tank in his book “The Power Of Broke” Daymond friends caused him to start heading down the wrong road however, his mom took out a loan so she could quit her job so that she could help her son make the right choices in life.

Making friends is something that many people do not consider as a skill. You need to make sure you are picking the right friends. If you are having a hard time finding friends, there is a thing called the “Dunbar Number” that shows that typically people could know about 150 people and out those 150 people could have only 5 close friends.

But what if you have the wrong 150 people because there are people who do not want the best for you, or if you are like me you move to a new state where you don’t know anyone, you need to go out and meet new people.

Zig Ziglar said “if you go out looking for a friend, you’re going to find they’re very scared. if you go out looking to be a friend, you’ll find them everywhere.”  
Where do people who share your common interest hangout? You could join a gym, join meet up groups, and look for local Facebook events.

You might not find your new best friends right away, however, the more people you get to know, this will expand your social circle and get to know new people, the more of a potential you will have to find your new best friend.

How much do you understand about advertising, cash flow, and raising business capital?

Most business owners understand what they do, but they do not understand some of the other important areas of their business.

Not understanding these fundamental areas of their business is what keeps them struggling, working long hours, for a lot less money than they need to, and living up to their potential.

So many businesses are ignorant when it comes to the numbers of their business. This is why you have people who promote a certain tactic like some new social media channel however unless you understand the number the tactic is useless. 

Let me show you what I mean…

To live the lifestyle of a middle-class family in 1960, once you adopt it to inflation in 2015 you would have to make between $180,000 on the low end to one million dollars a year on the high end. 

Many of you are living a lower standard of living than your grandparents did. Chances are your children will live an even lower standard of living, unless you do something now.

What kind of foundation are you setting up for yourself and your family?

Money isn’t everything…

Let's just look at sales!

You might not be in the sales profession, but sales are the way you drum up a new business. One of our clients Yamaya Faye is a supermodel who has lived all over the world including Dubi and is now currently living in Spain who you may have seen in a magazine, and TV got her start by picking up the phone and cold calling for modeling gigs.

Many smaller companies underestimate the power of sales. Shark Tanks, Robert Herjavec spoke at an Inc, magazine event where he explained that the companies that are more focused on sales tend to do better financially.

The average person makes 8 sales calls a day. That’s around 250 calls a month and 3,000 calls a year.

And the average American, I want to remind you that most Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

I was trained to make 250 phone calls per day when I was selling on the phone, I made more phone calls in a month than most people make all year. 250 calls x 25 day month = 5,000 dials x 12 month = 60,000 calls.

In sales, your first job is to generate interest, and then make follow up calls to close the sale, 81% of sales are closed between call 5-8 calls.

Only 2% of people buy on the first phone call, 48% Never make a second call. 3% buy on the 2nd call, Another 24% Never follow up again, 4% buy on the 3rd call, 12% Never follow up again, 10% buy on the 4th call, Another 6% Never try again, 81% buy on the 5-8th, Another 10% Never try again.

When you follow up between 5-8 times, you're doing better than 76% of salespeople. So, who is more likely to get sales? Those only calling 1 or 2 times? Or you, who is making 60,000 calls a year, making more attempts than 76% of salespeople?

When you understand the numbers of your business, it is easy to understand why 20% of salespeople make 80% of the money.

This is just by looking at one area of business, just imagine what else we have to show you.

The competition is fierce! But for you to succeed, you have to know what you are up against because as Marc Cuban said: “IF YOU DON'T KNOW MORE THAN YOUR COMPETITION, THEY CAN KICK YOUR ASS”.

Most of us have a basic understanding of what to do to get in shape and lose weight. We know we should eat right and workout, however, even if you do lose weight, 80% of people will gain it all back.

Why put yourself through the challenge depriving yourself of the foods you enjoy, going hungry, and wasting your money by joining a gym if you're just going to gain it all back? Making a plan that allows you the greatest possibility to meet and keep your goals is key to your success. Let's explore this further.

The diet and fitness industry usually focuses on 3 major areas 

1) Diet 
2) Nutrition 
3) Exercise

The missing factor that the majority of our fitness industry chooses to ignore is the power of choice. While what our potential is as human beings can be quite amazing; what we will do is something else.

We are a cocktail of different brain chemicals and when these chemicals are out of sync, it causes us to behave irrationally and make lifestyle choices that we wouldn't normally make. What we consider to be the normal stresses of life is really not normal at all but rather a warning sign from the body that something may not right.

Before we address the underlying health issues that cause you to be overstressed, I'd like to look at what stress is and its impact on us. Stress can be defined as the degree to which you feel overwhelmed or unable to cope as a result of pressures that are unmanageable. Stress and anxiety influence our metabolism because people do not effectively control their thoughts and instead let anxiety take control. We are all going to experience certain types of stress in our lives, however, our bodies may be warning us that something is not right. An article from CBS News entitled "The Biggest Cause Of Stress For Americans Today" states that money issues are the #1 cause of stress. (See article: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/the-biggest-cause-of-stress-in-america-today/. Even though we will experience triggers at times, by being healthy, we will be able to better cope with these conditions. Stress turns on the same signal in the brain that tells us when we are hungry. It increases our addiction to junk food, and causes us to overeat even when we are not hungry. With these underlying health issues, you cannot properly regulate your emotions which causes you to become addicted to unhealthy food to regulate your emotions.

Stress triggers the body to produce a hormone called “Cortisol” which many scientists call the death hormone because it is linked to so many life-threatening illnesses which we see in the form of belly fat. This type of fat can be very dangerous because it surrounds so many of our vital organs.

Dr. Joe Dispenzia says that we have 50,000-60,000 thoughts per day, and 90% of those are the same negative thoughts that we've had from the day before. However, once you take control of what you are thinking about, studies show that it results in a drop in cortisol thus lowering your belly fat without dieting or exercising.

There is a practice called mindfulness, which has been used in cultures throughout the world for thousands of years, and only in recent years has science been able to understand the true benefits of mindfulness. People become stressed by spending their day thinking about the past or worrying about the future. Mindfulness mediation is about being in the moment. For a long time, I dismissed meditation because I did not understand it or the benefits it holds. I always heard it in connection with ancient religious practice or some new age guru discussions, however, this is not the type of meditation we are talking about here. It has been found to benefit your physiological health, reduce stress, improve your mood, and set you up for emotional equilibrium rather than reactivity. It has also been linked with boosting your IQ and who doesn't want to be smarter! Some of the world's most successful people mediate such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Lady Gaga, Oprah Winfrey, and Russel Simons just to name a few.

The practice of mindfulness is in focusing your attention on one thing such as the air flowing in and out of your nose. Once you notice your mind starting to wander, bring your attention back to breathing which will work to lower your stress hormones.

It also takes practice to shift from thinking negatively to thinking positively. Our minds are very powerful and learning how to "put the brakes on" when you find yourself using negative rhetoric will help you be more successful.
This is why mindfulness is so important. It is a tool to train your mind on how to think. Once you eliminate negative beliefs, you can begin to think positively and change your life for the better. 

So how can you replace a negative perspective with a positive one? People say they want to change their life, however, they slip into their old habits because they are familiar ones. At first, all change is uncomfortable. You will want to conscientiously think about the changes you want to make so you keep moving forward. If you don't keep it in the front of your mind, you will go back to familiar routines. Most habits take 30 consecutive days to change. People believe they are not in control of their emotions. however, thought alone can change the way you feel whether real or imagined.

When you want to build a new life, creating a vision in your mind of your future is a powerful way to set you on the right path. Creating a Vision Board helps you to picture it and make it a reality. Fill it with photos, words, and phrases of what it will be like. People wait for their life to change for them to feel happy and successful. Find ways to be happy NOW and don't wait until you have everything you want. Enjoy your life and what you focus on will grow. You will find yourself being grateful for even the simplest things and build on a strong, positive foundation.

Because our modern-day life is filled with so many distractions it is best to start off with a guided mediation instead of trying to do it on your own. The internet offers so many options. For example, you can search on Youtube for The 6 Phase Mindvalleys mediation to help you get started, and as your brain improves you can practice mindfulness on your own. Start with only 5 or 10 minutes each day and you will be surprised at what a difference it can make for you. Even if you do lose focus when meditating, perhaps you are thinking about the bills, health challenges, or family issues, try to bring your mind back to your breathing. You are worth the time and energy and the quality of your life will change. The more you do it, as with anything, the better you get at it. It will help you increase your attention span as well.

Dr. Jordan Peterson, in his book the “12 Rules For Life”, explains why we fail, If you struggle to reach any goal in your life, it's because at one point in your life you learned to fail. How did it feel, what did you do to pick yourself up and continue to move forward? Some people are better at this than others but it is an important lesson to learn. Seeing failure as an opportunity to learn something instead of an ending, is a valuable perspective for us to have.

When you experience success, the brain produces a chemical called “Serotonin” which is also called the happiness hormone. The more you succeed, the more Serotonin the body produces, however, one success does not always mean you will remain successful. When you fail, pick yourself up, keep moving, and making momentum.

When a person fails, they fall back to recuperate, if you will. If you stay in the state of mind of "failure" for too long, then it can become a habit leading to more stress. You are not producing a high level of serotonin and it can generate more negative outcomes and become a spiral of sorts. Over time, when you are living in this kind of vacuum, it can lead to illness, lack of confidence, and a shorter life.

So the practice of mindfulness is a great tool to utilize and help you have a happy and successful life because once you are better able to deal with stress you will not feel the need to eat junk food as you do now.  You are fueling your body and mind with food and thoughts that help you live your best life!

If you struggle with dyslexia, ADD, ADHD or other so-called learning disabilities you may be considered lazy, unmotivated, stupid or other ways people make us feel inferior. .

Even though you may feel let down by the educational system the majority of assistance available is to help parents and their children. There is little assistance offered to adults. You may had been a full grow adult until you discovered your so-called learning disabilities.

I was diagnosed with dyslexia in first grade however, I did not discover I also had ADHD until I was a full-grown adult. However, I did not understand the advantages that dyslexia gave me because so much emphasis was given to my disadvantages.

If you struggle with dyslexia like me, people like Richard Branson, Steve Jobs, Walt Disney are held up as shinning examples of successful dyslexics to give us hope. 

But that is not the reality most dyslexics face.

The organization “Made By Dyslexia” held an event to celebrate the achievements of dyslexia because we live in a world made by dyslexic individuals like Henry Ford who developed the automobile, Thomas Edison who discovered Electricity, Steve Jobs who developed the smart phone, and civilization space travel with people like Elon Musk and Richard Branson with Space X and Virgin Galactic.

The research shows that dyslexics are 400% more likely to become millionaires however, as Matt Hancock Sec of State Health & Social Care spoke at the 2019 dyslexia summit address we are here to celebrate the achievement of those successful dyslexic who became successful inspire of their dyslexia.

He went on to emphasis that we are the privileges ones who made it despite a system that has bet on us to fail. We became successful despite the odds being against us.

He went on to emphasis that we are the privileges ones who made it despite a system that has bet on us to fail. We became successful despite the odds being against us.

Some dyslexics have taken their success for granted because the difference between a dyslexic being successful and failing is the type of support they received.

Weather you have had to struggle with dyslexia, ADHD or another so-called learning disability you may had been blessed with a series of particular set of circumstances that set you up for success despite your dyslexia.

In Samantha Coppola Ted Talks video she’s shows the cost of raising a child from birth to 18 is currently $245,000 however, to raise a dyslexic child is $400,000 to provide the resources to be a successful and productive member of socity.

ATTENTION! The following video is provided by a 3rd party vender. If the video is no longer available it is because the owner of the video or Youtube removed the video from their servers. we apologize for any inconvenience.

I do not know many parents who have the resources to invest $400,000 into their kids. Dyslexia runs in families. Chances are if you have one child with dyslexia, if you have more than one child there is a pretty good chance they will have dyslexia too.

Because dyslexic children lack the resources to set them up for success according to the institution of educationsciences.gov

when they enter the real world Dyslexic are also more likely to end up in jail, prison, drugs, and more likely to engage in self harming behavior like beating or cutting ones self, and more likely to attempt suicide.

(See article https://eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ1122799

According to eduationupdate.com shows that 48% of dyslexics are in prison because if you have poor reading and writing ability it is almost impossible to get a job.
Many times it is not that dyslexics can’t read but many times because of the way their eyes are communicating with the brain. Their brain does not see what is on the page and will even make up word that are not on the page

(See article http://www.educationupdate.com/archives/2008/DEC/html/spec--dyslexia.html

My parents were not rich however, I qualified for a scholarship for a special school that helped me to learn so I could do better in school to get me out of special ed.

If you did not get the proper resources to set you up for success. You may become resentful.  Kirk and Reid conducted a study that found that up to 50% of the prison population had some form of dyslexia.

I was prescribed medication as a kid that creates drug addiction. Once into their teens many dyslexic kids cannot withstand the draw of drugs. Partly because of the way I was raised I knew I had a unbalanced draw to alcohol and drug. I knew if I ever started I would become addicted to it.

The best way I can describe it is you know how you feel when you smell a batch of chocolate chip cookies fresh out of the over. This is how I felt when I smelt alcohol. My mouth would watcher and I was draw to it.

But I always stayed clear of it because I knew once I started I would easily become addicted. Once in my 30’s I felt I could control myself enough to avoid becoming addicted. 

 
I was able to withstand drugs, crime and going to jail but I was not able to avoid homelessness. In Barbah Cocrain Ted Talks video she explain that one thing that dyslexics are very good at is failing One of the reason people are not more successful than they are is because they are unwilling to fail

Dyslexics have failed so many time that failing is not a big deal for them. However, they learn from their failures until they become successful. Because so many dyslexics have become homeless from Dwayne The Rock Johnson, Steve Harvey, and Paul Mitchel I looked at my time in homelessness as a right of passage because there was a study published by Semanticsscholoar.org that showed the connection between dyslexia and homeless in which 52% of the homeless that took part in the study showed signs of dyslexia.

(See article https://www.motherjones.com/crime-justice/2019/04/people-in-prison-are-way-more-likely-to-have-dyslexia-the-justice-system-sets-them-up-to-fail/

Most people when they go homeless; give up. I saw going homeless is just part of my journey to become successful. During the time I was homeless living out of my car. I never begged for money. Being homeless actually made me less tolerant of other homeless beggars because I did not rely on the pity of others.

I looked at the resources that were still available to me. I had my computer and I had my skills. During this time I would get something to drink at Targets cafeteria and use their free wifi and power to charge up my laptop and I worked hard to make money online.

I did not have the resource that people like Richard Branson, Steve Jobs, and Elon Musk had. However, I am thankful for the support I received from my parents, especially my mom. Even though I lacked resources I still have to acknowledge that I received more support than many other children with dyslexia face.

I have been called lazy, stupid and all sorts of name because I failed to get a job for a long enough period of time I went homeless because of my dyslexia. I even failed the test at a job staffing service.

I have also be called names because I am driven enough to work hard and learn how to overcome my disadvantages that dyslexia gives me.

I can’t win I either a loser lazy, and worthless, or materialistic.

To be successful adult with dyslexia you need a team, without a team you fail. 

I worked and studied hard to achieve the level of success I did. I got married and after my mother passed my wife For a time gave me the support I need by working together as a team where I worked as a business strategist for a $400 million dollar marketing firm. Many times working with executives from multi billion dollar companies.

However, after my divorce and the loss of my support system I failed because as Person with dyslexia with a support system you succeed without a support system you fail!

It took me almost 5 years after my divorce to rebuild my support system. Paul Gonzalez is my support system by working together as a team we have taken on clients like Christopher B Pearman who is a producer, director, author, entrepreneur and father of Raven Symon of hit TV shows like “The Cosby Show”, “Thats So Raven”, and “The View”.

No matter your background we have built this online community to give you the tools, resources, and support to be successful despite what ever so-called label society has given you.

Because just as Steve Jobs said: Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits, the rebels, the trouble makers, the round pegs in square holes. We are The ones who see things differently, were not fond of rules. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or villify them, but the one thing no one can do to you is ignore you, because you change things… Because the ones who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

In order to stay competitive in today's fast pasted business environment, we have to make faster, more intelligent decisions than any of our competitors and one of the ways many of the top business leaders of the world do this is through what is known as mindfulness.

In the article “How To Optimize Your Brain To Make More Money” you saw that Einstein was not born with his brain, he built it! Through what we now know as neuroplasticity. We have power over our brains. By repeated thought thus building thicker neurological connections up the muscles in our brain, that will always us to outperform our competitors.

In Ray Dalio Inside Quest interview he explained that our emotions have a great impact on our actions than our logic and meditation enable you to make the best use of both the emotional and logical parts of the brain.  

ATTENTION! The following video is provided by a 3rd party vendor. If the video is no longer available it is because the owner of the video or Youtube removed the video from their servers. we apologize for any inconvenience.

Jerry Seinfeld has been practicing mindfulness for 40 years and he believes mindfulness is like a cell phone charger for your brain.

Mindfulness is a form of meditation however, many people resist the idea of meditation because it’s too hippyish, too woo, woo, or they feel it is connected to some religious practice.

Yes, there are certain types of mediation that are part of their religious practice but meditation and especially mindfulness mediation by its self does not. The meaning of mindfulness is to be in the moment which is why so many business leaders practice mindfulness.

Stress and worry are destructive and cause our brain to underperform. 

Neuroscience shows we have between 50-60,000 thoughts every day, with 90% of those thought are the same thought you had the day before.  

Isaiah 43:18 says: “Do not remember the former things and do not dwell on the past. Look! I am doing something new“

So you have to stop thinking those same old negative thoughts and replace them with positive thoughts.

People say they want to change their life however, they surround themselves with feelings that are familiar to them and when they are on the brink of change they slip into their old habits because it is familiar. We end up self-sabotaging ourselves because it is familiar. People believe they are not in control of their emotions however, thought alone can change the way you feel whether real or imagined.

People want a new life however, instead of creating a vision in their mind of their future they feel unworthy because they focus on negativity which sabotages their future. People wait for their life to change for them to feel happy and successful.

2 Corinthians advises us to bring every thought into captivity. In other words, not to let your mind wander because if you do not learn to take control of your brain, someone else will control what you think about.

It is almost impossible to go from thinking negatively to thinking positively. You need to stop the momentum of our thoughts! This is why mindfulness is so important. Mindfulness is a tool to train your mind how to think.

Chances are you have lived your entire life, letting society, advertisers, and the media control your thinking. It is now time for you to learn how to control your thought.

In order to turn off the busyness of your mind, and the chatter you will want to see our Youtube video entitled “Meditation For Beginners”.

Many meditation teachers will start you out by focusing on the air coming in and out of your nose to turn off the chatter.

This is the place where you will not worry about your stresses and problems. You are in the moment you are also not worrying about the future.

Must people mind live in the past or the future however, the world's most successful people live in the moment? They have a job to do and they don’t have time to worry or stress about it.

Once you turn off the chatter and the negative thinking. You can then focus on positive thoughts.

Andrew Carnegie the Steel king who was once the richest person in the world his dying wish to give ordinary people access to the secret knowledge of wealth which many of you know as the Napoleon  Hill classic “Think And Grow Rich” but as you see in the article “The Medici Code” Napoleon  Hills did not finish his writing until after Andrew Carnegie death in which Henry Ford felt that Napoleon  Hills writing revealed too many secrets a released a sampled version “Think And Grow Rich” however, Napoleon  Hills ordinal release was a correspondence course through mail order entitled “The Laws Of Success”.

Andrew Carnegie learned how to control his mind through one of his early mentors Charles Haanel who offered a correspondence course and mastermind session where a group of elite businessmen would meet together paying their 2-year salary to be mentored by Charles Haanel.

Charles Haanel wanted to open up this opportunity to anyone who was willing to commit to it however, those in power were so threatened by these secrets that made his writing illegal fearing that anyone could learn these secrets and take away their positions.

However, after his death in 1949 all but a small group of elite entrepreneurs forgot about Charles Haanel.

In 2017 I was once invited to attend a very secret and elite group of leaders where a whole new world of opportunity was opened up to me where I learned of the writings of Charles Haanel.

I want to invite you to come along with me on this journey of what I am learning from the past writing of Charles Haanel to control my mind through a series of stages.

You will not be able to complete each stage at this point however, through practice and building the muscles in your brain know as neuroplasticity you will be able to master this.

You will take one stage at a time. Once you have master one stage you can move on to the next stage until you have mastered each and every stage.

These mind exercises have been practiced by kings and the elites for over 600 years including the Medici, Einstein, Edison, and Tesla.

The diet and fitness industry has not done a very good job of helping us to achieve the results we desire with our bodies. When we follow their advice, we do get results but we still fall short of the outcomes we desire for ourselves. We all know we should workout, however, many of us overdo it in the beginning because we do not know how to work out in order to get maximum benefit.

Many people choose cardio because it gets the heart pumping which we are told helps us burn more fat. This advice can be helpful to some and knowing your body and what will work for it is important. When starting an exercise regiment, starting slow and building up your endurance will give you a greater chance of success. No matter your current physical condition, there are ways you can build your muscles up.

So instead, focus on improving your overall health by living in a way nature intended us to. Develop your self-discipline skills. We were meant to move, stretch, and be physically active. We only have one body so take care of it. If you can't follow all of the exercise advice given, take parts of it that can work for you now and then add more later. It's a "marathon" not a sprint where you want to be able to go the distance.

Listen to your body. If you hear creaks in your knees, see that your skin is jaundice, or notice blemishes on your skin, it can be an indication of underlying health problems. Know your body, how you feel, and when there are changes. No one knows it better than you. What we might call natural aging is not natural at all but could be a warning from your body that something is not right. Listen to it and take action. What follows are some suggestions for you to consider.

If you have crows feet for example, which are those lines on the sides of your eyes, this can be a warning sign from your body that your adrenal glands are burned out. If we go for too long of a run, this could overtax the adrenal glands and stress your system boosting a chemical called cortisol.

Cortisol is a stress hormone and can be helpful. Ustress motivates toward goals we have set for ourselves. However, distress can paralyze us and prevent us from reaching our goals. Prolonged stress could cause you to hold on to more fat because cortisol creates belly fat. Belly fat can have a significant negative impact on our internal organs. Many scientists call cortisol the death hormone. High levels of it will hinder your efforts to build and repair lean muscle tissue because it accelerates muscle breakdown and enhances fat storage, especially in the abdominal area as mentioned above. It can lead to many life-threatening illnesses such as diabetes and an increase in your heart rate and blood pressure resulting in cardiovascular disease. It is never to late to make a change. So it is important to understand the state of your health to optimize your body to lose weight.

A study published in the journal Mayo Clinic shows that moderate strength training and an increase in overall muscle mass were shown to reduce a person’s risk of developing type 2 diabetes by 32 percent.

https://www.healthline.com/health-news/weight-training-can-help-people-with-type-2-diabetes

A Harvard study reveals that muscle reduces your chances of diabetes, people who lifted weights for 20 min or more daily had less belly fat than those that did the same amount or more of cardio. Another study found that men who did 20 minutes of daily weight training had less increase in age-related abdominal fat than men who spent the same amount of time doing aerobic activities.

So those who run for 20 minutes compared to those who lifted weights for 20 minutes showed that those who lifted weights had less belly fat because of lowered cortisol levels.

At Alphlifesyleacademy.com, you will find a picture of Nikki Blackletter. In both pictures, she is the same weight, however, her abdomen had more definition after putting on muscle when she dropped her BMI and toned up.

An article from WebMD shows that muscle increases your metabolism.  With an increase in your muscle mass, you can boost your resting metabolism — and that makes your body's ability to burn more calories. Even when you are sleeping, watching TV, relaxing, or while at work at your computer, when you have made the effort to increase your muscle mass, you have raised your ability to burn off more calories. https://www.webmd.com/fitness-exercise/features/get-more-burn-from-your-workout#1

We have always known how to workout. We first learned that in gym class. Who of us doesn’t know how to do push-ups, sit-ups, or even jumping jacks. The internet, and tons of fitness YouTubers like Hedi Sommers, Laura who is known as Fitness Muffin, Katie Corio, etc. However, when you work out the same muscle groups over and over again, your body stops developing muscles. Beachbody programs, on the other hand, are designed to fight this problem with “muscle confusion” which uses targeted training phases so your body keeps adapting and growing. You’ll never “plateau”—which means your muscles will never get too comfortable and eventually show no change. You can adjust your work out by making improvements and increasing weights, slowing down your pace to better stimulate the muscle, or even stopping for a period of time to allow different muscle groups to rebuild. When we build muscles up, we help our bodies to become more efficient by burning more calories throughout the day.  https://www.webmd.com/fitness-exercise/features/get-more-burn-from-your-workout#1

You don’t need a gym to build muscles. In fact, because some people tend to push themselves because they are trying to keep up with other gym-goers, this causes injuries. By using your own body weight, this is a healthier way to build muscles.

By making small changes over time, you have a great chance to reach the results you desire. Building muscle is no different. Setting realistic small goals and celebrating when you achieve each one will continue to motivate and propel you forward. Be creative on how you celebrate and avoid eating food and instead take a bubble bath, get a mani/

When I started on this journey, I did not do my push-ups all at one time. Instead, I spread my exercise program out throughout the day. I set alarms in my phone as a reminder and every couple hours an alarm would go off to remind me it was time to do another set. You can also put notes around your workspace or at home to remind you to do another set. I do this not only for my push-ups but all the exercises in my program and I keep track of my results. I have included a worksheet you can print up to keep track of your results.

The average million spend 60 minutes each and every day educating themselves on business and financial material. So whatever area of your life you want to get handled you should spend 60 minutes each and every day educating yourself on the subject. For me, I listen to audiobooks and I walk around my office listening to audiobooks where I can really concentrate and meditate on what I am listening to.

I study for about 2 hours and every 4 minutes I do a set of exercises. So on my phone, I use the stopwatch and have an alarm go off every 4 minutes. If all you can do is 10 push-ups, then do 10 push-ups every 4 minutes however, after a couple of days then do 11 push-ups and continue on this path until you max out and can't do anymore. So 11 push-ups every 4 minutes for 2 hours, = 330 push-ups.

You don't want to do just push-ups every day. So rotate your exercises from day to day. So you might start out with push-ups, the next day move on to squats, the close grip push-ups then jumps, and you can do all of this from home without joining the gym.
