Fuel Your Body to 10x Your Productivity and Profits

As entrepreneurs, we wake up in the morning with a million things to do to grow our business, take care of our family and those we serve. If you are not taking care of yourself, chances are you are dragging through the day, with brain fog impairing your decision-making abilities and sabotaging your focus in sales conversations, or having your weight impair your confidence. Then at the end of the day, having nothing left to give to those you love the most.
What good is success if you have no energy to enjoy it? Why build wealth if you won’t physically be able to enjoy it, especially later in life?
Sandy had been running her non-profit business for the last 25 years. She had a very successful business that helped thousands of kids and families with a significant income. She had paid a price to create it though. Her team morale was down as well as productivity. Her kids complained she was tired all the time and her husband felt neglected.
She was 60 pounds overweight, had high blood pressure with low energy and brain fog. She was a little short tempered in her interactions with her employees and wanted to just check out or pass out when she got home.
She was a master of getting stuff done and handling all that life threw at her, with one exception, her weight.
It’s not that she hadn’t tried. She had done lots of diets – keto, WW, counting calories, and many more.
She ate “pretty well” and even worked out some. She couldn’t figure out why she was able to handle everything else in life, but just couldn’t figure out her weight.
One day, she caught herself looking at a picture from a few years ago and said, ”I wish I was that weight when I thought I was fat.”
If you have ever struggled with your weight, you know exactly what Sandy was feeling. She wanted to do better and feel better. She had done so many things to try, but nothing worked.
Why?
Because diets are designed to fail. If they actually worked we would not have spent $71 billion dollars last year on the diet and weight loss their goal weight.
Diets are not designed to address your unique individual needs.
Diets do not address the root cause or the mindset that got you there in the first place. Extra weight is not the issue. It is a symptom of the issue going on under the surface.
Once restored, your body doesn’t need to hold onto the extra weight any longer. But only focus on the scale while ignoring the root cause and you will inevitably regain the weight.
Take baby steps to start moving in the right direction. Focus on one thing you can improve and begin.
Hydrate! – Water is the #1 thing you can do for your body. It is necessary for every single function in your body, for example digestion, detoxification, brain function joint health, energy, skin health, blood pressure, and more.
Drink ½ your body weight in ounces of water per day and add another 2 glasses for each alcohol, soda or caffeinated beverage.
Eat more live foods – Veggies are your best friend. They are high in fiber and nutrients. There are lots of ways to make them delicious! Here is a favorite - https://www.completehealthrevolution. com/the-1-way-to-make-veggies-delicious/
Cut the C.R.A.P. –
C - Caffeine is a diuretic and spikes your blood pressure and your sugar levels which releasing insulin, telling your body to store fat.
R – Refined sugar – sugar has linked to diabetes and obesity and drives inflammation in the body which is at the root of all disease. It also spikes insulin again telling your body to store fat.
A - Alcohol – Increases your risks of cancer, heart and liver disease, and more.
P - Processed foods – Packaged and processed foods contain high levels of additives and preservatives, many of them cancer causing.
Sandy started with these 3 and in just 3 months had shed 25 pounds, 3 pant sizes, was forcing herself to bed at 11:30 and her family LOVED having her fully engaged again. Her team responded to her changes and followed suit. She had a healthier, more productive team and she saw a 15% increase in profits the very next quarter. What will be your first step?
