My 400th Newsletters is an accumulation of sending it out every Thursday except for only a handful of weeks since I launched in October of 2006.
Throughout this time I have never given up the question “Why does one person get results while another doesn’t?” and “What would it take for the person before me to get results?”. This has lead me to study many different areas that include :
- Metabolic Typing
- Functional Diagnostic Nutrition
- Endocrinology
- Success Stories / Testimonials / “Failures”
- Fitness Models / Natural Body Builders
- Emotional Freedom Technique
- Psych-K
- Neuro Linguistic Programming – NLP
- Integrated Eye Movement Therapy – IEMT
- Metaphor
- Various Self Help Guru’s
- Various scientific researchers in the field of health.
The biggest breakthrough for me though was back in 2011 when I took 6 months out in Brazil. I decided that I would test everything I said or believed in with some sort of experiment where possible. If I couldn’t test something I believed to be true I would not promote it so much until I had found a way to see if it stood up to some scrutiny.
In 2012 I started to measure, weigh and record my food. In a little two and half years I have recorded over 500 days of nutrition. I recorded every exercise session since then and tried many different theories out in the real world with real time experiments. I held an open mind of what works and did not just try to prove my theory correct like I have seen other people do.
The results confirmed many things I knew already, forced me to make a complete U-turn on some issues and allowed me to see I was both right and wrong on some issues depending how you view it. I then started using different methods with clients to see If I could work out what was most effective.
Right now I am back in Brazil pulling it all together and once more hope to bring my best method yet to help people get results come 2015.
To Your Success
