Twice a year we are urged to reflect on our lives.

Each New Year we are encouraged to rethink where we are heading, kick bad habits and set straight our game plans.

The beginning of spring is usually the next time we find ourselves thinking about how we are living.

For some of us it means getting into shape and shedding kilos so that we can strut our stuff on the beach; others look at other aspects in their lives.

But, this year one thing is for sure.

Covid-19 has thrust health into pole position.

Strange, but true, there are many positives stemming from Covid-19.

The pharmaceutical companies have reported an exponential drop in their sale of seasonal flu medications.

The wearing of masks, staying at home, social distancing and more consideration for others – have all contributed to the normal winter flu season never happening.

With Covid-19 on the way out as our summer approaches,we are well positioned to take our health – and our lives – to the next level.

Here are the golden rules if you want to take full advantage right now.

They all centre on the universal principle of striving to live a life in balance – in that balance creates WELLNESS – and imbalance creates ILLNESS.

Too much or too little of anything – for too long – creates a state of imbalance.

Ready to spring clean your health, your life?

You can by creating more balance in all three realms of health and life.

#1: PHYSICAL (what we put into our bodies)

#2: CHEMICAL (what we put into our mouths and noses), and

#3: EMOTIONAL. (What we put into our heads)

They are all inter-linked, so you will have to find balance in all three realms together, if you want to see your health sky rocket this spring.

Howver, many of us fall into the ‘human trap‘ of unwittingly and/or habitually creating our own forms of imbalance in our lives.

Here are the most common human mistakes which we make – and we must avoid – to avoid the doctor’s rooms:

PHYSICAL:

We do not get enough sleep or enough exercise.We entertain physical toxins – for example: ‘too much or too little’ sun.

CHEMICAL:

Our diets get crammed full with acidic foodstuffs – and not enough alkaline foods to balance the ph levels in the diet equation. We further punish our bodies with the intake of too many chemical toxins – alcohol and cigarettes being the most common culprits.

EMOTIONAL:

We unwittingly hold onto highly toxic emotions, not knowing how dangerous this can be for our health and our lives. The prime culprits here are Resentment, Hate, Guilt, Criticism and Futility (Self-pity).Be aware as these ‘Big Five‘ toxic emotions can and will manifest in one or other of the serious life threatening forms of disease.

Empower your health or you will soon be told what organs to remove – or drugs to take: Dr John de Martini

The good news is that if you get anywhere close to optimum balance in all three universal realms of health and life, you’ll soon find yourself mastering your health – and mastering your life.

Com’on Summa……..

Go Great

While Elon Musk can be described as one of South Africa’s ‘greatest exports’, (read  BIZNEWS article from way back in Nov 2014), many more South Africans are  making their own champion impact felt all around the world.

One such person is 65 year old former World Surfing Champion, California-based Durbanite Shaun Tomson.

In a recent rewarding webinar with Alec Hogg on BIZNEWS, he shared invaluable insights from his surfing life, his business life and what he now terms the third wave of his life in serving others.

He ascribes his purpose to be:

Wanting to be better – wanting to help others to be better

Through sharing his life experiences via talks (virtual for now), and his book: THE CODE: The Power of ‘I Will’ – he is certainly doing great job in helping others.

Built around twelve ‘I Will’ promises that people make to themselves, ‘The Code’, is an effective tool to create a powerful, positive and purposeful attitude to navigate the uncertainty and turbulence of life.

From his life experiences he shares insights on you how to write your own code – how to ride the next wave in your own life.

I put Shaun’s ‘I Will” code to the test by combining it with the seven chapters in my recent book: CHAMPIONS DO MORE.

The result?

A potent CHAMPION’S CODE.

A Champion’s code to serve anyone wanting to do life better.

Here they are:

CHAPTER #1: GAME CHANGER ONE:  Mindset matters Most.

CODE:  “I will  be the VICTOR in my mind – never the VICTIM “

CHAPTER#2: GAME CHANGER TWO: Stepping inside Great.

CODE: “I will strive for SUCCESS & SIGNIFICANCE – and  sustain it.”

CHAPTER#3: GAME CHANGER THREE: Branding is Everything.           

CODE: “I will build a potent PERSONAL BRAND – and live it “

CHAPTER#4: GAME CHANGER FOUR:  Conquer. Don’t Fight.

CODE: “I will  come from a POSITION OF STRENGTH – through life long learning”

CHAPTER#5: GAME CHANGER FIVE:  The Power in the Peloton.

CODE: “I will leverage the power in TEAMWORK – by choosing my inner circle wisely”

CHAPTER#6: GAME CHANGER SIX:  No Health. No Wealth.

CODE: “I will strive for optimum LIFE BALANCE – in the Physical, Chemical & Emotional realms of life.”

CHAPTER #7: GAME CHANGER SEVEN: Live the Journey.

CODE: “I will DICTATE MY OWN DESTINY – invest in self.”

The power of writing – the power of affirming “I Will” – helps one see beyond today and set a course for a better tomorrow. Shaun Tomson

Have a crack at writing your own personal code to ensure that you emerge stronger, wiser and more committed from our current adverse times.

It’s said that adversity is the training ground of champions.

No wonder we have many of them all around the world.

Thank you Shaun Tomson :  www.shauntomson.com

A Champion of life.

Go Great
