WORTH: Arriving at your goal weight will not make you a person who is worth more than you are today. Would failing to achieve your goal make you worthless? I hope not! You set your fitness goals not to achieve worth but because you are a person of great worth. You are worthy of a better body – a body that feels great.
HOUSE: If you had the ability to go from a small apartment to a mansion, you would most likely choose the mansion. It’s the same with your body, only more important. Your body is the most important house you will ever own. If you knew that with the same amount of work it would take to get fit that in 6 months you could go from a tiny little dingy apartment to a beautiful mansion, would you make effort? I bet you would.
SCREENPLAY: I won’t make the comparison of the body to a vehicle because it’s so much more than a vehicle. It doesn’t just get you around. The body houses the mind, the seat of joy and imagination and beauty. All of that wonder is enacted on the screen of your mind and cannot be given to you from the outside world. You cannot create, project, visualize, and enjoy the show if your body is not fit. It just won’t happen. You cannot substitute laying on the sofa watching TV and eating chips for the scenarios a healthy mind will create for you.
BRAINWASHING: Your mind cannot experience all of the wonderful aspects of being if your body is not bathing your brain with health. The saying is true that one hand washes the other. The mind must wash the body and the body must wash the mind. They must work together to come clean together. So go ahead and brainwash yourself and do it with both the words you speak to yourself and the exercise you give your body. I believe it was Alan Watts who said – You can’t get wet from the word water.
