4 Hour Work Week' a hoax?

Hay Buddy,

I'm in the middle of reading this book you may have heard
of...

It's called "The 4-Hour Workweek" and it's written by a
30-year-old millionaire named Timothy Ferriss -- and this
sucker has been flying off the shelves from coast to coast.

The book's philosophy essentially boils down to this...

If you manage your time, your goals, and your priorities
effectively, it's totally possible for you to generate a
comfortable, full-time income working just 4 hours per week.

Goodbye trying to fit your social life around your 9-to-5 job,
and hello freedom and prosperity!

Seriously though -- who doesn't want that? No wonder this
book's become an instant best-seller.

But since releasing it, Tim Ferriss has come under some
serious fire from prominent entrepreneurs who are whining
(let's be honest) that designing your 'ideal lifestyle' of
minimal work and maximum play is not that simple... that it
takes YEARS of hard work, blood, sweat, and tears to make that
happen.

But I beg to differ!

I've know many people who have started their own moneymaking
Internet businesses from scratch. (In fact, I count myself
among their number!)

And I can tell you this without a shadow of a doubt:

The success people like us have achieved did NOT come as a
result of how much time we've spent working on our businesses,
but what we've DONE with the time we've spent.

For example: Someone with clear, intentional goals and a
step-by-step action plan will accomplish wayyyyy more in 60
minutes than someone who is mired in information overload and
analysis paralysis will accomplish in 8 hours.

I've seen high school drop outs, retirees who are downright
scared of computers, and even teenagers achieve *massive*
success on the Internet 'working' as little as 4 hours per
week... and in some cases, even less than that!

It's possible -- I've seen it, I've done it, and I'd like you
to do it, too.

P.S. Here's another secret for you...

You don't have to know it all, learn it all, or spend days at
a time researching your next step to generate a full-time
income on the Internet. You simply need to surround yourself
with people who have the expertise that you don't, and let
them steer you along towards success.

But where can you find such experts willing to openly share
their expertise and stand over your shoulder as you grow your
own moneymaking website? Click here now to find out!

Motivation, Drive, Never Give Up!

Life can be tough and times we may want to get discouraged though remember you always can push harder and give more.
never ever quite. When I was growing up my father told me something I will never forget "Winners never quite and quitters will never win" I live by this still today. If I want something there is nothing more powerful then my drive. My drive and passion will get me through any situation and tough times and times in my life where it feels like I'm down and out.
there is never a reason you can't do something, you mind will believe what you tell yourself, so tell yourself how great you are and you go and always give your very best.
your very best is far more then you may even realized it, if you haven't ever pushed before where your whole body shakes, aches, and feels burning pain, you may never really know what it's like to give everything you got.
Don't let the little things in your mind stop you, Never quite, never give up, always push and proceed to get what you want in life, nothing is stupid, nothing is not worth it, nothing is worth giving up, if your truly want something then do everything in your power to get what you want and don't let any thing get in your way. Because if you do then you will continue put yourself further back from your goal.
go for it all, be your best and give all you possibly can image and then give even more, more and more.
here's a great clip from the move "awaken the giants" that really motivating: check it out:






in great health and happiness.

Fitness Articles of the Week

If You Don't Exercise You Lose Muscle

It's inevitable that in life our bodies will sustain some type of physical injury, so it's important to continue to keep moving, in one capacity or another, to prevent muscle loss. Now for those of you who are already in phenomenal shape, you might not notice the difference, but for the majority of the population who needs to watch their weight the physical changes that will occur from your injury will be dramatic and this loss of muscle mass will affect your recovery.

Depending upon your type of injury, or in some cases a prolonged illness, there might be limited types of exercises that you are capable of performing, so it is important to discuss this with your doctor or a certified personal trainer. In some cases limited stretching might be all that you are capable of, but even a little stretching is better than none at all. For those injuries that allow for more mobility, try walking or swimming, both are low-intensity exercises that will keep your body from getting soft, as well as helping you to maintain your current level of fitness.

Why Eating Out is so Bad

At this time of year, with friends and family so abundant a lot of people go out to eat to avoid the hassles of cooking themselves, if this is a regular occurrence for you, you might want to reconsider, because eating out can be detrimental to your health. When we go out to eat, as opposed to cooking at home we often end up consuming more food than we normally would. After all how many courses do you prepare when you are cooking? Do you often have bread or chips and salsa on the table to nibble on before the meal is ready? Or what about the appetizer course or soup and salad? Do you go to that much trouble even before the meal is served? More than likely not. When cooking at home one normally tackles the main dish and perhaps a few side items, very rarely does one make additional courses, and it's these additional courses that can really add on the pounds that we all try so desperately to avoid. If you are going to eat out, try avoiding bread plates and appetizers, stick to the main dish, and not only will your waistline thank you, but so will your wallet.

Another dangerous element to restaurant food is preparation. Most restaurants do not explain in detail how the food is preserved, and this is very important information that can affect your health. Restaurants use a lot of butter when preparing food, in order to give the food more flavor, but all of that added butter is bad for your heart and bad for your butt. Another dangerous addition to restaurant meals are fatty sauces. Restaurants pour cream sauces and marinara sauces onto things like chicken and fish to hide the fact that the meat isn't fresh or hasn't been cooked properly. If you're at all concerned about your health, try to eat at home with fresh organic products as much as possible. (read more)

Motivational Tips

In life it is easy to get discouraged with all of the obstacles that are thrown our way, however in order to stay focused on our goals, it is important to keep ourselves motivated. There are a number of things that are readily available to keep you motivated; inspirational books, CDs and DVDs are available at your local library, bookstore or even online. For some people working out helps them to clear their mind, allowing them to refocus and get motivated, while for others meditation or a quite walk help to refocus their thoughts. Whatever words of encouragement or inspirational thoughts you require it is important to keep yourself armed with such techniques in order to avoid depression and self-doubt to stay motivated.

My moms homemade rolls, Thanksgiving delight

I was talking to my mother this morning wishing her a happy thanksgiving and I asked her what she gave thanks to, well as she was talking I was thinking about my moms famous rolls, these our so delicious that people come near and far and beg from some of my mom, Vicky's rolls. Maybe its the love and passion my mom puts into her cooking that makes these rolls so addicting delicious, maybe it's the recipe.  Well me the nutrition geek and health nut I was thinking back watching my mom stay up all night making these rolls and I remembered what she used for the oil was Crisco.
 
I asked her what is Crisco, what's in it, she replied I don't know and then she got the bottle and rattled of some of the fat grams, and I asked her what the ingredients label said on it "soybean oil" she replied.  I was amazing flabbergasted that here from 30 plus years my mother has been cooking these rolls she had no idea what some of the ingredients of the products she used where. 
 
Though so many of us have no clue what we put in our bodies, wow what a concept talk about playing Russian roulette, foods that could kill us, cause illness and other harmful things and we as people neglect to even read what is in the ingredients of the food we ingest.
 
No wonder why we are so fat, un healthy, and diseased.  We pay so little attention to what is going inside us and what we are doing.
 
don't get me wrong I love my mom to death, she is an amazing women, though it struck me that she and probably millions or even billions of other men and women are so careless when it comes to reading ingredients and ingesting such dangerous foods to our health.
 
Well so I did the research and came across this article below, great read good informational and to the point about what Crisco really is and how it came about. read it find out why we should be more aware of what is in our food.
 
I of course recommended ways she could make her rolls healthier by using different oils, flours, and so forth, she said she would give them a shot.  Got to love my mom for this.
 
though I know we as people eat for our taste buds and our controlled by the chemicals and addictive substances food scientist put in our food.
 
taste buds can change, and I guarantee you can make any healthy food delicious: just go here to find out how: www.healthycookingvideos.com
 
enjoy the read and make the right choice by reading ingredients of what you are eating.
 
 
The Rise and Fall of Crisco

By Linda Joyce Forristal , CCP

On April 25, 2001, Proctor and Gamble (P&G) put its product Crisco on the auction block, just ten years short of its 100th birthday. Crisco, initially made with hydrogenated cottonseed oil, is the quintessential imitation food, and the first to make its way into American kitchens.

The story of Crisco begins innocently enough in pre-Civil-War America when candle maker William Proctor and his brother-in-law, soap-maker James Gamble, joined forces to compete with fourteen other soap and candle makers in Cincinnati, Ohio. P&G entered the shortening business out of necessity. In the 1890s, the meat packing monopoly controlled the price of lard and tallow needed to make candles and soap. 1P&G took steps to gain control of the cottonseed oil business from farm to factory. By 1905, they owned eight cottonseed mills in Mississippi. In 1907, with the help of German chemist E. C. Kayser, P&G developed the science of hydrogenation. By adding hydrogen atoms to the fatty acid chain, this revolutionary industrial process transformed liquid cottonseed oil into a solid that resembled lard. 1

Not content with using hardened cottonseed oil for soaps, and mindful that electrification was forcing the candle business into decline, P&G looked for other markets for their new product. Since hydrogenated cottonseed oil resembled lard, why not sell it as a food?

The new product was initially named Krispo, but trademark complications forced P&G to look for another name. They next try was Cryst which was abandoned when someone in management noted a religious connotation. Eventually they chose the near-acronym Crisco, which can be derived from CRYStalized Cottonseed Oil.

Crisco was introduced to the public in 1911. It was an era when wives stayed home and cooked with plenty of butter and lard. The challenge for Crisco was to convince the stay-at-home housewife about the merits of this imitation food. P&G’s first ad campaign introduced the all-vegetable shortening as "a healthier alternative to cooking with animal fats. and more economical than butter." With one sentence, P&G had taken on its two closest competitors—lard and butter.

P&G’s next step was a stroke of genius—they published and gave away a cookbook. The Story of Crisco 2looked like most other cookbooks of the era, but there was a difference. All of its 615 recipes, everything from lobster bisque to pound cake, contained—you guessed it—Crisco.

The Stor of Crisco is recognized as a classic in the subtle art of persuasion. Its language and contextual variety are "representative of the pre-WWI social milieu and reflect the urbanization, domestication, commercialization, education (or lack thereof) and simple sophistication of the times." 3 Crisco is presented as healthier, more digestible, cleaner, more economical, more enlightened and more modern than lard. Women who use Crisco are portrayed as good wives and mothers, their houses are free of strong cooking odors and their children grow up with good characters (because, according to the tortured logic of P&G’s advertising department, Crisco is easier to digest).

P&G also had the brilliant idea of presenting Crisco to the Jewish housewife as a kosher food, one that behaved like butter but could be used with meats. Because it made kosher cooking easier, Jews adopted Crisco and margarine—imitation lard and imitation butter—more quickly than other groups, with unforeseen consequences.

I remember switching from lard to Crisco to make pie crust when I was a teenager. We always used lard from the farm, but sometime in the 1960s, Mom innocently brought home our first can of Crisco. We started to use it liberally. That was the overt addition to the diet. What we didn’t know was that Crisco and its cousins were being covertly added to countless food items.

We also didn’t know that the partially hydrogenated oils in Crisco—the trans fatty acids—were bad for us. In fairness to P&G, they didn’t know this either, not at first. But when reports of problems began to appear—problems like increased heart disease, increased cancer, growth problems, learning disorders and infertility—P&G worked behind the scenes to cover them up.4 One scientist who worked for P&G, Dr. Fred Mattson, can be credited with presenting the US government’s inconclusive Lipid Research Clinics Trials to the public as proof that animal fats caused heart disease. He was also one of the baleful influences that persuaded the American Heart Association to preach the phony gospel of the Lipid Hypothesis.

The truth about the dangers of trans fatty acids in foods like Crisco is finally emerging. Perhaps that is why P&G decided to put their flagship product up for sale.

Today when somebody asks me about diet, I make the following recommendation: vigorously seek to eliminate two things—hydrogenated fats and high fructose corn syrup—and you will see noticeable health improvements. Not all hydrogenated fats are made with cottonseed oil today; in fact, most are now made with soybean oil. But by eliminating just these two commodities—which is not as easy as it sounds—you will find that you have eliminated the majority of the "displacing foods of modern commerce" that Weston A. Price spoke about.

Besides all the possible health risks of hydrogenation, I believe there is another compelling reason to avoid Crisco. Just before harvest, cottonseed plants are sprayed with strong defoliating chemicals to make the leaves fall off so that it is easier and cleaner to pick. Do your own research.Type the words "cotton + defoliation" into a web browser and see what you come up with. You will be as amazed as I was. Unfortunately, without the benefits of a lab, it would be hard to know how much harmful residue Crisco actually contains.

However, I can provide some anecdotal evidence. A couple of years ago, a friend of mine who is an alternative health practitioner told me that she kept running into cases in which patients had very severe upset stomachs after eating chips. After a fair bit of investigation and inspiration, she found a common denominator was that they had all been fried in cottonseed oil. She herself had grown up in the South and knew about the practice of cotton defoliation. Since then, she has counseled her patients to avoid cottonseed oil and Crisco.

For obvious reasons, this column on Crisco does not contain recipes.

Jogging is easy and Affordable

Cardio, moving, shedding fat, what's your choice.

Running is a great form of exercise that is really affordable and easy, wake up put on cloths (optional though highly suggested) and take off for a morning job great way to get the day started, women love this allows there mind to do what it's got to do, very stress relieving.

Hey this may not be for you and that is ok, though something must be your choice, because you must choose that is the only option; run, jump rope, jumping jacks for 30 minutes.  Finding time just do it right when you wake up get it done and over with so the rest of the day doesn't interfere with the best thing you can do for your mind, body, and spirit.

You may not like it, you may learn to love it, you may want to make it easier with an ipod or some tunes, or my favorite an audio book. Though as nike says just do it.  "Get er done" says the cable guy.

Exercise it is the only option to a healthy, abundant life.. so get out there and do it, who needs motivation just do it.. don't worry, be free and just go, now you got it.

here's some info to help below.

Run, Forrest!
Jogging is one of the few exercises you can undertake without membership fees, classes, or expensive equipment. USATF.org provides joggers with a nationwide database of runners' routes, complete with street maps and satellite images. Find a route in your town or post one of your own!

Children's Physical Activity Guidelines

After reading and going though this info just makes me think "what in the hell is wrong with all of this"  why do the physical fitness guidelines keep increasing for children and adults, are we getting lazier, less physical activity.
 
no, the answer isn't just how little movement we are getting, it also has to do with our poor food choices, we are fat because are lack of proper nutrition.
 
and by looking over guidelines and recommendations for good healthy food it's know wonder why we all are getting more obese have more health problems and so forth.
 
I have consulted thousands of people how to get fit and stay super fit and feel amazing for every.  Though we have all these so called experts that haven't learned anything new then the rubbish they learned 40 years ago.  The body is complex, losing fat is easy once you understand how things function and look at things more in detail. If you really want proper consultation we need to make huge changes in corporations, government, and what we as people allow to be utilized for information.
 
Yes we all most likely need more physical exercise, though no one should be fat or obese if they don't get tons of exercise, it also has to do with our nourishment, our environment, and genes.
 
we all can be fit healthy individuals with not much fat, once we really start addressing the issue there will be more guidelines telling us we need more.  Find out the real truth to health and fitness: www.personalpowetraining.net
 
 
 
CHILDREN NEED GREATER AMOUNTS OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IN 2004

For more information, contact:
Paula Keyes Kun (703) 476-3461,
pkun@aahperd.org

RESTON, VA, December 30, 2003 - - Five years after releasing the first physical activity guidelines for children five to 12 years of age, the National Association for Sport and Physical Education (NASPE) is increasing the recommended amount. The first of four new guidelines recommends at least 60 minutes, and up to several hours of physical activity per day. This is not surprising given the fact that inactivity has contributed to the recent obesity epidemic and sedentary living is a known threat to health.

“With escalating obesity and physical inactivity rates for children, the public’s attention should now be focused to help schools and families across the country bring into action these important guidelines,” said NASPE President George Graham, Ph.D., of Pennsylvania State University. “Schools are critically important to increasing physical activity of children because school programs can affect the behavior of ALL children on a daily basis.”

Lead authors of the revised Physical Activity for Children: A Statement of Guidelines for Children Ages 5-12, are Drs. Charles B. Corbin and Robert P. Pangrazi of Arizona State University. The purpose of this document is to provide parents, physicians, physical education teachers, classroom teachers, youth physical activity leaders, school administrators, and all others dedicated to promoting physically active lifestyles for children with guidelines about appropriate physical activity for pre-adolescent children.

Summary Guidelines
Among the recommendations are the following:
  • Children should accumulate at least 60 minutes, and up to several hours, of age appropriate physical activity on all, or most days of the week.
  • Children should participate in several bouts of physical activity lasting 15 minutes or more each day.
  • Children should participate each day in a variety of age-appropriate physical activities designed to achieve optimal health, wellness, fitness and performance benefits.
  • Extended periods (periods of two hours or more) of inactivity are discouraged for children, especially during the daytime hours.
“To help bring these guidelines to fruition parents and schools need to set specific times each day for physical activity such as a before school activity, recess, physical education class, and an activity break after lunch,” said Charles Corbin. “Within a quality school physical education program, physical education teachers should:
  • Expose youngsters to a wide variety of physical activities
  • Teach physical skills to help maintain lifetime health and fitness
  • Encourage self-monitoring so youngsters can see how active they are and set their own goals
  • Individualize intensity of activities
  • Focus feedback on process of doing your best rather than on product
  • Be active role models.
“Perhaps the single most important time to increase physical activity and decrease sedentary activities such as television watching and computer time is after school between 3 and 6 p.m. This is a time when children can be active, but often are not. Many children are inactive during this time period through no fault of their own. Parents must help their children find safe and enjoyable opportunities to be active during this time period. Unless a special time is set aside each day, the opportunity to be active will slip away because barriers to physical activity are often great.”

When asked about barriers to promoting physical activity, the researcher said, “Without any question, the number one barrier to physical activity in schools is the perception that time spent in activity such as physical education and recess will undermine academic learning. The evidence does not support this assumption. We now know is that making time for physical education and physical activity does not reduce academic learning and it may actually increase it.

“Our research shows that children who are physically active during the day in school are much more likely to be physically active after school as well. Energy begets energy! The more fit and alert adults feel the better they perform. This is also true for children.”

Corbin said, “The bottom line is that sedentary living contributes to obesity and chronic diseases later in life. Starting the activity habit early in life is crucial. Children need at least 60 minutes and up to several hours of activity daily. It can be accumulated in many short (15 minutes minimum) intermittent bouts of activity and need not be done in continuous exercise periods that are appropriate for adults. Long periods of inactivity (more than two hours in length) are discouraged.”
