‍

3 Ideas

‍

1. If you want to start your health journey but are unsure where to start, follow this list in order and only focus on one at a time: some text

• Fix your nutrition - Find & stick to a meal plan that works for you
• Optimize your sleep - Sleep for 8hrs + sleep/wake at the same time daily
• Move the body more often - Strength train 3x a week + Endurance train 3x + rest 1x
• Begin a simple meditation practice - Light a candle, and hold your attention on it for 5 minutes daily. If you break, simply return your focus back to the candle.

It doesn’t need to be complicated, just consistent. Done is better then perfect.

‍

2. How to be more focused: Eliminate distractions. What’s in your awareness causing you to not be focused? Eliminate it. “The opposite of focus is distraction.”‍

‍

3. Fixation of time is the quickest way to out of the present moment, out of flow state. If you can create a life where what time it is doesn’t matter, the percentage of time you’ll be present and likely induce flow state will jump dramatically.

Stoic philosopher Socrates on realizing one’s full potential: 

“It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable. I desire only to know the truth, and to live as well as I can. And, to the utmost of my power, I exhort all other men to do the same.”

‍

Indian philosopher and speaker Jiddu Krishnamurti on comparison in today’s society:

“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.”

A recommendation may be a book, podcast, article, video, or even a product. Here’s what I have for you today: 

‍

Way Of The Superior Man: A Spiritual Guide to Mastering the Challenges of Women, Work, and Sexual Desire by David Deida. Link here

My all-time favorite book on how to be a man and dealing with women.

A book I encourage all men to not only read but return to multiple times. Over and over again as I have.

Go Take Action!

‍

Today’s action can 1 of 2 paths: 

1. Go make a meal plan if you don’t already have one. It’s the fastest way to permanently change your energy, focus, and mood for the better. 
2. Eliminate one major source of distraction in your life that you’ve delayed acting on. DO IT NOW.
