"Recipe for a Healthy Day"
7-15-01

Top of the day to you

I think the most asked question in all my e-mails is how do I do it? How can I fit all this stuff into a day with fitness, eating the best, working several hours a day, traveling a lot and keeping up with a social life and all?

Well I got to thinking about that and thought well, let me give you a complete day with Wayne and I'm going to add my energy drink in this one s well which will do nothing short of amaze you at how wholesome you'll feel without all those jitters. Then next week I'll be giving you a recipe for a week's fitness program!

  • Up @ 7:30 AM
  • 6 Things
    1. 1. Devotions
    2. 2. Read something positive for 1 minute
    3. 3. Drink a couple glasses of Water
    4. 4. Brush Teeth
    5. 5. Dry Brush Skin
    6. 6. Outside to Breathe 10 times + stretch on my pull-up bar for 10 - 15 seconds

  • Walk 1 mile to start the day (It's a doable act ANYONE can do who's not handicapped physically)
  • Read
  • 8 AM = Breakfast (Maybe at this time I'll have to go to the bathroom so when I'm in there I read my 82 things (that's on my wall) I'm grateful for each day which really puts it all together for me.)
  • Work
  • 10 AM = Mid-morning Fruit
  • Work
  • NOON = Light Lunch
  • Work
  • 1-2 PM = Nap
  • 2-4 PM = Train
  • In Town for errands
  • 6-7 PM = Evening Meal
  • Work! (or if I'm on the road, this is when I socialize)
  • 1-2 AM = Bedtime

We know that it's better to sleep 6 hours at night and 1 hour of naptime in the day than it is to sleep 8 straight hours. This way you can add 1 hour to your waking hours and be as productive as you can be. On our REST Audio Learning System we talk about that.

The reason why I like working for myself and from my home office is that I'm in TOTAL control of my time.

I've had people tell me they don't have time for what I've just described as a healthy day as their 24 hours are already used up. Isn't that funny when you think about it, I've just NEVER met anyone yet in my 54 years that only used up 22 hours of a day. We all use up our 24 hours everyday all day!

We should all be in total control of our time as it's really the ONLY thing we honestly have. And of course our health is our most valuable asset to try and maintain in those 24 hours we have.

I made a statement some time ago about the truth is that we are uniquely special and not a carbon copy and I was called on that view with some strong criticism as to who do I think I am saying what the truth is.

Well, truth is not a matter of our personal viewpoint and I can buy that.
We really need to learn to see things as they really are, not as we imagine they are.

Wrong is wrong, no matter who does it or who says it. No matter what you believe, it never changes the facts. The facts, if they are there, always speak for themselves.

Truth does not change because it is, or is not, believed by a majority of the people. If forty million people say a foolish thing, it is still a foolish thing. The sky is not less blue because the blind man does not see it.

All in all, beliefs will only be beliefs as long as there are people out there to believe them. But truth will always be truth whether we believe it or not. And in my view, the truth is that you are truly special and deserve the best. So I'm wishing that for you as you continue trying to make a difference.
