Don’t Be A Fool!

 Sometimes, we are all fools, but, I say, stop. Don’t be a fool, don’t fool yourself and never let anyone fool you. First, please allow me to share the meaning of fool by google dictionary: Fool –

a person who acts unwisely or imprudently. Although I can give endless examples on when we might be fool or fooling ourselves, please allow me to focus on, wellness and weight loss / gain. To simplify this post, I am just going to make it into a list of how not to be a fool with well being.

Don’t Be A Fool:

  1. Don’t fall for quick fix (eat carrot today loos a pound yesterday)
  2. Don’t follow a follower (I heard coffee is…) test for yourself
  3. Don’t wish for things you are not willing to sacrifice yourself for
  4. No one will do the work for you (every part of the work)
  5. Create strong foundations (work on your mental state, foundations)
  6. It is going to be fucking hard, prep yourself for that
  7. Inspire yourself instead of looking for external inspiration
  8. Create a plan that you can follow (no worries, you can improve it)
  9. Magazines are magazines not real life, they magnify a moment in life
  10. People will judge you no matter what, embrace it or suck it up
  11. Don’t fool yourself, getting the result will not make you happy
  12. Learn to control your mind
  13. It is OK to say no
  14. Learn to ask for help
  15. Be grateful for what you have already achieved
  16. Speak kindly to yourself
  17. Speak kindly to others
  18. Respect yourself, respect your body and respect your mind
  19. Get bored with your routine, it is a grate practice for self discipline
  20. MASTER SELF DISCIPLINE
  21. Never stop the practice
  22. Consistency over time, creates the compound effect, be consistent
  23. It is OK to change your mind if it helps you stay on track
  24. KNOW WHAT YOU WANT
  25. Learn what you want
  26. Learn WHY you want it
  27. Desires could be the best tool you have, makes it the biggest enemy
  28. Don’t fool yourself, this list is just a beginning of how not to be a fool, but the first 27 of the are pretty good start, and if you still wish to be a fool and ask me to give you the best one to start with, I would say:


Practice To Master Self Discipline.

No Pain No Gain

  We all heard the term: “No Pain No Gain”, I use it quite often with myself, sometimes even with my trainees. However, I am not sure people actually understand the meaning of it. We tend to confuse between pain of stupidity to pain of wisdom, between the physical pain of hard work to the pain of a fracture or a nerve. The pain of a fracture might be to signal us that we are on the wrong path. A pain of a nerve could try to say that maybe we are pushing too much, a pain of stupidity could be when you think you should jump higher than you ever practice for or before, or when you just go for a marathon run when you never run for 10 km in a row. All those versions of pain could not be and should not be part of that statement. Believe me when I say, that it is more painful to push through mentally when a thing seems statics then physically when you can feel the wrong pain. It is easier to say to yourself “if I don’t feel the physical pain I probably don’t push hard enough”, then to kee...

A Path to True Wellness and Balance

 In the pursuit of a healthy life, we strive for balance, aim to maintain our health, and seek happiness within ourselves and our daily lives. While achieving this may seem straightforward, many of us face regular challenges in doing so. We often hide behind our screens, offering advice and sharing personal stories in an attempt to guide others. Yet, when we delve deeper, we find that issues such as obesity, depression, lack of joy, stress, and anxiety persist. So, what’s the key? I believe that self-reflection—practiced often, even daily—can lead us toward our desired goals. The first step is to define your destination: what does wellness truly mean to you? According to the Google Dictionary: Well: in a good or satisfactory way. Ness: denoting a state or condition. However, defining wellness alone isn’t enough to help you reach your aspirations. It requires your personal experiences, objectives, and passions to truly shape it. Begin by asking yourself: What does "well" me...
