What's Your Creed?

My friend Dax Moy author of the Magic 100 has just put together a short video of his creed. A couple minutes of your time to watch this can change your life!

Click HERE to watch.

You'll want to START LIVING each day like it's magic!

This has has trully inspired me and has me thinking of what my own creed is. Have you thought of yours? Go for it! Check out the short clip.

Life's too short to let each day pass you by, days quickly turn into weeks, weeks to years, years to decades...before you know it you're wondering where the time went.

Don't look back and think 'if only'. START LIVING each day like it's a gift, BE YOUR BEST, encourage those around you to be their best.

Live every day likes it's Magic !

STOP dreaming about your dreams and START living them!

I have to confess, I've been keeping a secret....sort of

Here it is:

In the last 6 months I have accomplished more than I could have possibly hoped for or dreamed of. I've set goals and have achieved all of them. These include:


1. Successfully changing careers

2. Writing 2 books (Both will go on sale in the next month)

3. Purchasing my first flat

4. Generating mailing lists of thousands of people

5. Finding brilliant clients and maximizing my weekly appointments

6. Going on 2 vacations in last 6 months (I want to go on 1 every 3 months)

7. Running Berlin Marathon in under 3:42 (my goal was for under 4 hours)


I list these not to brag but rather to share with you the idea that you too can achieve your dreams, most importantly you can do it NOW and not in a years time or several years time.


How did I do it?

I used Dax Moy's (One of the UK's Top Fitness Experts) Magic 100. It really is Magic! It has changed my life. For the first time I feel like I'm living my dream rather than just dreaming it.

I say I kept this a secret simply because I never thought to share it with you and all the other members of my mailing lists.

I simply told my friends and family about it. It wasn't until I was talking to a friend about my newsletters and my success that I realized that I need to share this information with as many people as possible.

After all I truly believe that you are only as successful as your ability to positively impact the lives of others.

Once you've started living your dream email me your success stories, I'd love to hear them!

Are you a grape or a raison?

If you're drinking at least 1 litre of water for every 25kg then
CONGRATULATIONS you're a GRAPE! No need to keep reading, unless you want to reaffirm what a great thing you're doing for your body. If you're not drinking enough water then keep reading, you're a RAISON!

We all know that water is vital to health! So much so that without
it we could not survive, yet many people do not take drinking water
as seriously as they should.

If you're not drinking enough water here are a few side effects you
may be already experiencing or may experience in the near future:


Effects of dehydration:

Weight gain
Headaches
Tiredness
Constipation
Sore back
Muscle cramping
Dry skin
Viscous blood
Poor muscle tone
Kidney stones
Water retention
Heartburn
Stomach aches
Depression, Irritation
Nausea

Sadly I could go on but I think you get the picture! Ready to start
drinking more water? Here are some tips to get you started.

1) At the start of each day fill a couple of bottles of your required amount for the day. This will prevent you from guessing at the end of the day if you've had enough

2) If you don't enjoy the taste of water, try adding a couple of
lemon slices

3) Set yourself timers to remind yourself. It's so easy to get
caught up in a project for several hours and then realise you
haven't had a sip in hours

4) Try drinking herbal teas. There are several out there, so even
if you've tried a couple and didn't like then, keep trying. A few
nice one's are chamomile, peppermint, ginger, fennel, and
dandelion.

5) Keep bottles in your bag, car, office, where ever you spend time

Once you find what strategies work best for you, the next step is to
not become frustrated by the amount of times you find yourself
running to the bathroom. This will slow down after a few days.

What's happening is your body is actually ridding itself of
excess water. Over the period of time that you haven't been drinking
enough water your body has gone in to 'survival mode', it simply
wasn't sure if or when you were going to give it more water,
therefore it held on to the little water it had. You may have
seen the visible signs through being bloated or puffy around
your ankles, hips and thighs.

Remember water is vital to survival, treat your water intake with
the same seriousness that you would if you were ill and were
prescribed medication.

For those of you that read last weeks newsletter and are now
cutting out wheat, gluten, caffeine, alcohol and dairy (with the
exception of organic butter and bio live yoghurt) you may be
finding that a lot of your symptoms are associated with a lack of
water. Increasing your water will help your body rid itself of
the toxins now that you're eating high quality natural foods.
