Fuel Your Healthy Body

All of us grow and develop over time. And there’s sort of a bell curve to our life. We start out low on the chart and make upward progress, reaching our physical peak, typically, somewhere around 18-20 years old, and then begin a long, slow decline until death.

Exercise, of course, has proven benefits on all accounts. Diet on the other hand, is more obscure. There is no evidence, for example, that can scientifically claim organic foods will eliminate the types of disease commonly associated with processed and chemically raised food sources.

And yet organic foods claim to be significantly healthier for us. Yet they cost 50-300% more.

If all you do is consider eating more fruits and vegetables, than this Everyday Health list of the top ten fruits and veggies chemically grown will help you target the best ROI for your grocery dollars.

Both Men Have It

In yesterday’s post Michael Johnson interviewed Usain Bolt. Both men currently hold world records.

Both men did something no other human has ever accomplished.

And on closer inspection, we find that off the track, they are fun-loving, casual, “normal” human beings.

On the track, polar opposites.

Michael = laser-focused, and dead serious
Usain = casual, almost comical

Whatever your health goals are, there is no one “correct” way to pursue them. We all need to remind ourselves that in fact, there may be many approaches over our lifetime.

We can learn a lot by watching others. Others can learn a lot by watching us. Knowing this, do you consider yourself a health example or a health warning?

World’s Fastest Humans

Usain Bolt, world’s fastest human, interviewed by Michael Johnson, former world record holder 200 meters and current world record holder 400 meters. What you can expect from this is a casual approach by two extraordinary humans. And even if you are not a runner, you have the opportunity to see best-in-class and look for ways to adopt their attitude and approach into your own approach:

What Motivates You?

Motivation is fascinating, don’t you think? It’s like a fire, isn’t it? We must continue to add fuel to a fire to keep it burning.

It seems that we have a daily (if not hourly) choice to stay focused on what keeps our fire alive.

Are there more than three version of this?

Let the fire go out
Add just enough to keep the fire from going out
Keep the fire raging

Just To Be Clear(er)

I am not a medical doctor. And do not possess any scientific answers you may be seeking.

You know this. Everyone knows this. But I do know one thing. We all get one life. It will be difficult. And if we are decently lucky, it will also be fairly long.

Do you treat your body like a temple or a tent?
