The subject of diet is one of the foremost topics of the present day in public interest. Newspapers and magazines teem with articles and book shops are filled with volumes unfolding the mysteries of proteins and vitamins. Experts are saying that you become the thing you eat. This is perfectly true, as far as it goes, but I am going to deal with the subject of dieting at a level infinitely more profound and far-reaching in its effects-mental dieting
The food you furnish your mind determines the character of your life. The subjects that you allow your mind to dwell upon, make your surroundings what they are. As thy days, so shall thy strength be (Deutoronomy 33:25), which in modern language may be translated “as thy thoughts so shall thy life be.”
Everything in your life today- the state of your body, the state of your fortune, the state of your home, the present condition of every phase your life- is entirely conditioned by the habitual tone of your past thinking. And the condition of your life next week, and next year, will be conditioned by the thoughts and feelings that you entertain from now onward. In other words, you choose your life.

Your Own Valuation...
The world will take you at your own valuation. Your body will take you at your own valuation. Your business will take you at your own valuation; for the value that you really put upon yourself is the one that manifests. You may say, “But that cannot be true, because I know several people who are always boasting and pretending and yet no one ever takes them seriously.
Please note that I said the value you really put upon yourself. People who boast, bluff, and pretend have really a poor opinion of themselves- or why would they pretend? And it is this poor opinion or sense of inferiority that is demonstrated in the failure that such people always make of their lives.
The man who really believes that his wares are excellent does not dream of lying about them. The man who is satisfied with what he is has no incentive to pretend to be something he is not. The man who is conscious of substantial achievement has no desire to boast.
Nature always takes you at your own valuation. Believe that you are the child of God. Believe that you express Life, Truth, Love. Believe that Wisdom guides you. Believe that you are a special enterprise on the part of God- and what you really believe, you will demonstrate.
Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. (1 John 3:2)

Gift ideas for the Holidays!
Hope everyone is back in full swing this week! I know it's always hard coming off a long restful weekend. I wanted to talk about a few things that I mentioned in an earlier post. When I met up with The Movement Dallas I was fortunate enough to run across a few products that have literally changed my life and many clients that I have been working with. This line of nutritionals is far above and beyond ANYTHING that I have personally ever taken or seen! The integrity that goes into each batch is unprecedented and it's the reason why I feel it is worthy enough for me and my entire family to be on. It's truly amazing what good quality food AND the proper supplementation can do for you not only physically but spiritually as well. If you are interested in these products there will be more to come. You can comment and I will respond to your inquires... :)
