Every one of us at some point in life will face obstacles. It doesn't matter at what stage you are in life it will happen, and we cannot evade the facts. The most important factor is to realize when you face these obstacles is to ask the question, what can I do to get out of the situation and move forward with life?
Last weekend I went to a nice Turkish restaurant in New York City with a few friends that I hadn't had a chance to hang out with in a long time. The food was very delicious and we had fun eating, laughing, and discussing about our new lifestyles and different projects that we are undergoing at this particular moment in our lives. Two important comments stroked me while I sat there reticently listening to two of my good friends from college.
One is a Fitness Director at a Health Club and going to Medical School soon. He said to me, "You know what Ibsen, you just have to do it and take care of it while you are young, and don't wait when it is too late" This statement struck me like a meteorite, and you know why. Well, simply because I encounter so many people who want to change their eating habits, their fitness level, their health status everyday,but all they want to do is wait for a lifetime.
Even Worse! some of these individuals have so many excuses not to get started on a nutritional program and a fitness training program that can change their life forever. Instead, many of them rather keep suffering with their disorders and ingesting so many pills, and take their medication comfortably every single day. If you are reading this right now and feel like "you can't do it", then you will never do it. Like my friend said, you need to get up and do it now, just do it, before you find out you have high cholesterol, high blood pressure, heart disease, high stress level, diabetes, cancer, osteoporosis, animia, and more.
The other friend of mine is a Financial Analyst and a Researcher. At one point on the table after sipping on his lemon water, he said to us "Save now and reap the results later in life." Then again, this statement can't be more true. Many of us just expect to see results without even trying or overnight. It doesn't happen like that in real life. Anyone who tells you other wise, something like, get a six packs in 2 days is a total lie, or lose your waist size in 2 days is a total lie. Of course you will feel a slight difference within tow days, but not results.
Yes! some of us, for some reason have what I call "The miraculous genes" and it is very, very, very rare to find. My point is, if you are embarking on a new nutritional program, exercise program, you cannot expect to see results in a day or 72 hours. The physiological aspect of the human body and the nervous system is too complex, and trust me the body needs time to adapt very well and get to a point of accomodation. You will need to put in some effort, commit yourself, and most importantly do it right and smart. The results will come and they will last for a very long time, believe me. Just like my friend said, if you do it right the first time around you will reap greater and lasting results.
Well folks! I hope these two important messages stay with you for a very long time, and by the way try some Turkish food, you'll be amazed with the results.
