Be Courageous

Scott Sonnon is a world class martial artist and physical fitness expert. He has been involved in creating some very cutting edge workout routines that combine body weight strength training, flexitilbity and cardio.

He also has a very fine philosophy about training and living life to your highest potential.

Here is a quote that I recently read from him that I love!



Scott Sonnon

"First, they pay no attention to you or your idea. Then, they scoff and dismiss it as nonsense. Then, they attack your idea to discredit you. Then, they claim they've been doing it long before you "made a fortune" by commercializing their idea. Then, you win.

Don't expect people to shower you with adulation. Don't do it for the pat on the back, or the plaque on the wall. Because you're going to need to thicken your skin if you truly have something of value to contribute to the world.

Do it because it's the right thing to do. Do it because you want to bring value to others MORE than you want to receive recognition from them.

Being original and unique often means standing alone. Be strong enough to be original. Be courageous enough to be uniquely you."

I saw this from Facebook page Live Laugh Love.








The art of living is neither careless drifting on the one hand nor fearful clinging on the other. It consists in being sensitive to each moment, in regarding it as utterly new and unique, in having the mind open and wholly receptive.... Alan Watts

Paleo Lifestyle

I have been doing some research trying to focus on eating a healthier selection of food and limit my intake of sugar.  For me, this has been a herculean task, as I have been drinking soda since college and admitedly, I am addicted to it.

I also have been trying to limit my passion for fast food!  Another habit that started later in high school.
When I was growing up, I hardly ever ate any fast food, and I think my mom did a pretty good job of giving us a variety of fruits and vegtables.  However, as the years went on, I developed some really bad eating habits.

In doing my research, one of the interesting things I have come across is a paleo lifesty, which looks at how our ancestors historically ate and exercised and recommends a similar lifestyle and diet.
I recently came across this chart, which really does a nice job of explaining the thought process behind the "paleo craze"

There are many excellent books on paleo, I would recommend you start with The Paleo Solution.

Enjoy the chart!
