What are you complaining about right? Yes, that is right, what are your problems right now? Ok…that is enough, I am sure you can think of plenty.

Now before you say way to go Sam I am here to find some inspiration and some positivity and you have me thinking about my problems …gee’ Well just stay with me for a moment.

I was watched a great video by Dr Joe Vitale about how an awakened millionaire thinks if you like you can check it out here. I found it very interesting and truly inspiring, especially at this time when many people have some many problems.

Most people look at problems as something bad and negative and hey, for good reason, problems are something that is not working, causing stress and worry and something we don’t want. Some people do some pretty destructive things to avoid or escape from their problems like over eat, take drugs, drink to much, etc.  Which usually just create more problems.

Here is a new way to look at your problems and failure.

First off most entrepreneurs attack problems as opportunities in disguise and learn to prosper from them. For example, for every problem, there is a solution, so whatever problem you are experiencing right now I bet there are others in the world having the exact same problem. That means you can learn how to solve this problem and create a product around how to solve this problem and you then have a product you can sell and prosper from.

I love the way Joe Vitale puts it – A problem is a potential product.

We live in the ‘information age’ and there are millions of people everyday searching the internet for information and many of these people are looking for answers to question or put another way looking for a solution to their problems.

So rather than being paralysed by worry and stressed by your current problems look for ways you can prosper from them and help others solve the same issue.

So I want to ask you again what are your problems and how can you turn them into a product?

Here is something else I want to share with you that has helped me in tough times because tough times are always there it is how you handle them is what counts.

My first job out of school was selling home security systems door to door. As much as some people cringe at the thought of this sort of job I have to say I loved it even though I wasn’t that good at it at the start. I knew that if I wanted to succeed in sales I needed to study it so that is what I did, and I studied a lot.

I read dozens of books and listened to audio tapes for hours every day. One of my favourite sales teachers was Tom Hopkins and his classic program How To Master The Art Of Selling. In this program Tom explains a way of thinking all top super achievers think about failure and setbacks because you are going to have them. This is a part of life.

To quote Tom he says:

“I never see failure as failure, but only as the game I must play and win.” And my favorite

“I am not judged by the number of times I fail, but by the number of times I succeed: and the number of times I succeed is in direct proportion to the number of times I fail and keep trying.”

This advice and thinking has helped me countless times throughout my life, I hope it helps you too.

Losing weight is a topic that a large percentage of our population are interested in. There are a great number of diets out there that claim to be the one to work, but how many of them truly work as claimed? Not all do.

What is the reason for the failure of so many of these diet plans? They are not always healthy, long term plans, but instead are often unsustainable calorie restriction plans. If you finally would like to learn how to lose weight fast and maintain that weight loss, you need something different.

To achieve weight loss, there are two basic ways to do it. Reduce your calorie intake and/or maximize the rate at which you burn calories.

Most weight loss plans only address calorie reduction. If you really want to drop pounds and keep the pounds gone, you have to do something different. You can’t simply starve yourself forever. The solution is to increase your metabolism, so you burn more calories. By using additional calories, you will burn the fat you want to lose.

There are a number of ways to do this. Physical activity is one option. You should exercise regularly any ways, just for health reasons, but by working out in the correct manner, you can increase the effectiveness of your exercise. A straight forward way to do this is to split your work outs up. Instead of a single long workout, workout for shorter periods, multiple times a day. You don’t need to work out twenty times a day for an hour at a time. Remember, we are looking for sustainable. Three twenty minute walks a day could be your personal goal.

Another way to increase your metabolism is through a change in your eating habits. By eating smaller meals more often throughout the day, you will help to increase your metabolism. In addition to eating smaller meals more frequently, eating the right foods will help increase your metabolism. For example, cutting out red meat and replacing it with chicken will help your body run more efficiently.

We go into great detail on this topic at our healthy tips blog. Stop by and check it out. We address a number of health topics that should be of interest to all. This also include additional information regarding weight loss, with an emphasis on healthy weight loss. Remember, with proper nutrition, more frequent eating and a well balanced exercise plan, you can lose weight and keep it off. Good luck, until next time!

Fitness is a lifelong endeavor. Unfortunately, in our society today, with the speed of the world as we know it, even fitness goals are often set with expectations of overnight improvement. Just like fad nutrition programs, this is a sure-fire way to failure.

The fastest way to improve your overall fitness is to challenge yourself daily to make improvements no matter how small they might be. Understand from the outset, your health and wellness is a marathon, not a sprint! These small improvements not only help your Fitness but they also help you to develop a winning mindset where you know that every day you are getting better in some way.

Even if, in the course of a whole resistance training workout you only manage to do a few more repetitions in one exercise or lift a few pounds more weight in one exercise you have made an improvement that is another step up the ladder of fitness success. Naturally there will be days when you are low on energy, or are feeling lethargic for one reason or another. On days like that, just accept that simply going to the gym or exercising is a bonus in itself and sometimes it is wise to have a workout on a day like that without recording the details. Each and every one of us has ‘off’ days and that is something that we need to accept.

If we get these days more often that not then it is time to look at other aspects of your lifestyle and ask what is lacking that makes this happen. It could be something as simple as not drinking enough water during the day or possibly not getting enough sleep at night. It could also very well be from over training where the body isn’t getting enough time to recuperate between training sessions.

If you can’t make some small improvements to your fitness on a weekly basis then it is time to start looking at your training program to determine whether it needs changing. Small changes that seem minor at the time can produce outstanding results over the period of a few months or more. These same small changes can add years to your life so they are well worth aiming for.
