Decide to Live Healthy

For centuries women and men much wiser than I have suggested a very simple route to self improvement - We are what we think we are. Our present state is often the result of where our thoughts ( and the resulting actions ) have taken us.

Success is in the blood. There are men whom fate can never keep down - they march forward in a jaunty manner, and take by divine right the best of everything that the earth affords. They are ever alert and alive to any good that may come their way, and when it comes they simply make the best of it and move steadily on.


Whenever you go outdoors, take a nice, deep breath and fill your lungs to the utmost; drink in the sunshine; greet your friends with a smile. Do not fear being misunderstood; and never waste a moment thinking about your setbacks. Try instead to fix firmly in your own mind what you would like to do, and then move straight towards your goal.

Fear is the obstacle on which many a goal gets stranded. When we become fearful, the judgment is as unreliable as a broken compass.

Keep your mind on the great and splendid thing you would like to do; and then, as the days go gliding by, you will find yourself unconsciously seizing the opportunities that are required for the fulfillment of your desire, just as the coral insect takes from the running tide the elements that it needs. Picture in your mind the able, earnest, useful person you desire to be, and the thought that you hold is hourly transforming you into that particular individual you so admire.

Thought is supreme - Preserve a right mental attitude - the attitude of courage, frankness and good cheer.

Darwin and Spencer have told us that this is the method of Creation. All things come through desire and every sincere prayer is answered. We become like that on which our hearts are fixed.

The choice is ours to make. We can direct and control our thoughts! And our actions! Our achievements are the result of two things - mental attitude, and the way we spend our time. It is what we think and what we do that make us what we are. Choose to enjoy eating healthy foods. Choose to exercise daily. Choose good, clean thoughts. Make the choice for better health!
