Image
 Our vision is our primary means of relationship to the world around us. Of the five physical senses, vision is the most dominant and useful sense. Yet, over half the people in this country (U.S.A) wear glasses or contacts. Needing corrective-lenses to see clearly is now considered normal, though there are ways to have better vision naturally without the use of any artificial means and complicated procedures like surgery. In this article, I will disclose 5 keys to naturally better vision that has been tried and tested by thousands of individuals over years. Key#1 Blink Regularly : Blinking is a natural preserver of your better vision. Blinking cleanses and lubricates the eyes.

Consciously remind yourself to blink every 3-5 seconds. T...

Attitude - The Forgotten Power

Image
What would you consider is your most valuable tool for staying in shape? Is it your treadmill? What about your weight set? Is it your arsenal of low-fat cookbooks, and low-carb diet snacks? What about your collection of workout videos? Would you consider it a revelation that your most lethal weapon in the battle of the bulge is your Attitude? Think about it. What good is your treadmill if you don't have the energy to get on it, or can't get up the motivation to crank up the speed, or the elevation? How useful are your dumbbells if you can't push yourself to use them in the most effective manner? How good is a nutrition program that you can't stick to? How much fat loss will you get out of your workout videos if you just can't seem to get as motivated as that bouncy cheerleader who is urging you to jump higher, or that buff macho man who keeps saying, "C'mon, just one more rep!"?

If you believe it is 80 degrees outside it will dictate your actions of what you wear. If you believe the road turns your actions are going to be driven by your beliefs and you will turn. Your beliefs dictate your actions. You need to understand myth from reality otherwise following your inner knowing may not be effective. Your beliefs will be dictating your actions and confining and limiting what you do with the messages from your inner knowing. There is a way around this with out having to realize all of the things that you believe are true that are really just myths. Be flexible in your behavior. Don't let your beliefs of what can and cannot work, or what you should and shouldn't do get in the way of what your inner knowing is telling you to do. Be open to your inner knowing telling you to do things that are not within your com...
