WEEK 165: TWO PILLARS (PART 1)

You can't build a great building on a weak foundation. You must have a solid foundation if you are going to have a strong superstructure.    Gordon B Hinckley


REFLECTIONS (learnings and actions): Do you want to be successful?

I am talking about truly successful.

Health. Professional. Personal.

Well, today I am going to give you the first of the "Two Pillar System"on which all of your success is built on.

I have learned from studying some of the most successful people and it has come down to these two pillars. 

You can make progress with one but it is at a fraction of your potential. You are only able to step into your true power mastering both pillars. 

It is like the foundation of a house, in that you need all the parts to support the whole house. 

So what is first pillar?

Your core health.

Simple you might say, but you need to peel back the curtain to see the power of this first pillar. 

The thing is most people do not know that your core health guards one of the most important assets you have as a driven and impactful individual. 

What is that asset?

It is how you feel about your self.

Does something make you feel good about yourself. 

This is what you should be fighting each day to ensure because if you feel good about yourself then everything seems possible!

Going to tell you right now that piece of advice above is what other driven, high-performing people have paid thousands of dollars to understand.

Why?

Well, take out a piece of paper and take notes as I am about to break this down for you.

How you feel about yourself affects everything else. 

Now let me ask you a question, how do you feel about yourself if you are not healthy?

If you are overweight...lack energy...or do not like the person you see when you are standing in front of a mirror?

Going to go out on a limb and say you are not going to feel awesome if your core health is not in order. 

Now here is the thing. 

If you have your core health on lock down then you feel good about yourself.

If you feel good about yourself then you will have more belief.

If you have more belief anything is possible. 

ANYTHING!

Simple, yet powerful.

You might argue that there might be successful people who do not have their health in order, but let me tell you they are a shell of what they can be.

For example, Tony Robbins tells a story of the richest person in Canada who he saw at a Cirque Du Soliel show.

This person had amassed huge amounts of money and probably achieved many great things.

Yet...

He was visibly uncomfortable.

Literally he was so big that he needed to purchase two seats just to watch the show. 

Tony said although he might have the money to buy all the seats at the show, he did not have the health to enjoy it. 

Moral of the story, the cap on your ceiling for success is tied to your core health. 

Thus, your core health - weight, energy, vitality - is one of the main foundations your success is built upon.

I can guarantee from investing to learn from other truly successful people and my own experience, that you will perform at a fraction of what you are able to do if you do not have this under control.

Now how do you gain control of your health?

Well this goes to the inputs you give your health, ie, the food you give your body to nourish it.

Could wrap about this for days, but will leave it at that today.

Come back next week when I drop insights about the second pillar. 

See you on the other side...J
