SLIDE 2 “Everyone Wants to Change the World, But No One Thinks About the Power of Changing Themselves.”
– Leo Tolstoy
SLIDE 3 – Jim Rohn
“I’ll Take Care of Me for You, If You’ll Take Care of You for Me.”
SLIDE 4
THE WORLD IS WAITING FOR YOU TO STEP UP BECOME SELF-RELIANT & TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE
SLIDE 5
And…You Simply Can’t Achieve Your Goals and Live Your Best Life Without Optimizing the Vehicle That’s Going to Get You There…
SLIDE 6 ASK YOURSELF THESE QUESTIONS
- You probably don’t lack vision and what you want to
achieve (money, freedom, mastery, etc.), so what’s holding you back?
- Is it a plan, or are you looking for some type of push?
- Do you suffer from low energy, motivation or
procrastination?
SLIDE 7 NOW ASK YOURSELF THIS QUESTION
- Do you really need the Pomodoro Method or
- ther lifestyle hacks to FORCE you to achieve
your goals?
- Or do you just need more energy and vitality
which naturally leads to more effortless output?
SLIDE 8 AND ONE MORE QUESTION…
- Do you need an alarm clock, coffee with butter,
and a morning meditation routine to maximize
- utput or are you just missing the natural
“chemistry” (hormones & neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine/adrenaline, and cortisol) to feel alive & energized again?
SLIDE 9
THE BOTTOMLINE IS THIS…
If you’re your trying to increase your “willpower” something is wrong…
SLIDE 10 YOU’RE MISSING THE FLOW STATE
Your flow state is where passion, enthusiasm, and output come naturally from having a well-balanced body & mind…
SLIDE 11 FROM DEATH’S DOORSTEP TO A DESIGNER LIFE
How I went from not being able to walk up a flight of stairs to waking up before my alarm clock…
SLIDE 12
ENGINEERING THE ELITE-MAN BEGINS NOW
SLIDE 13
HOW DO YOU ACHIEVE THIS?
SLIDE 14 HERE’S WHAT YOU DON’T DO…
- You don't fall for the latest silicon valley start up,
drinking butter for breakfast, starve your body of carbohydrates, and complete insane body-crushing workouts of the day…
You don’t build yourself up by continually breaking down and depleting yourself!)
SLIDE 15
INSTEAD, USE STATE-OF-ART SCIENCE
(…with a Dash of Common Sense)
SLIDE 16
FIRST, FOR THE NOT SO COMMON SENSE…
SLIDE 17 TAKE AWAY #1
You Really Are What You Eat…
SLIDE 18 ALL TRUE HEALTH EXPERTS AGREE ON THIS:
- Protein helps rebuild the
body and keep it strong
system & brain health
preferred fuel source (Especially for an active life)
SLIDE 19 VEGAN, VEGETARIAN, OR MEAT EATER?
- Again, the top true health
experts are only arguing
total animal protein per day!
bodyweight in ounces of protein per day from a vegan, vegetarian, or animal source
SLIDE 20 TAKE AWAY #2
Remember What Exercise Is Meant For…
SLIDE 21 THIS IS NOT SMART EXERCISE
in heart…
- Too catabolic
- Elevates cortisol
- Increases blood sugar
levels
SLIDE 22 EXERCISE IS ABOUT BALANCE
- Strength. Agility. Flexibility. Endurance. RECOVERY.
SLIDE 23 TAKE AWAY #3
Sleep: All Hustle & No Rest = Burn Out
SLIDE 24 GET SOME SLEEP . BEFORE 10PM.
(And, NO you are not a night owl…)
SLIDE 25
THERE ARE NO NIGHT OWLS… JUST PEOPLE WITH BROKEN CIRCADIAN RHYTHMS
SLIDE 26 TAKE AWAY #4
What & How You Think Matters…
SLIDE 27 – Henry Ford
“Whether You Think You Can or Think YouCan’t
SLIDE 28 MINDSET MAY BE THE LIMITING FACTOR
subconscious thinking may be sabotaging your success
- Rewire through events like
this and goal setting
- Your gut & glands may not
be producing the chemicals you need to actually change your thinking
SLIDE 29
NOW FOR THE SCIENCE
SLIDE 30
THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A BETTER OR EASIER TIME THAN RIGHT NOW TO COMPLETELY ACCESS YOUR BIOCHEMISTRY
SLIDE 31
