       No More Excuses!

       There is nothing stopping anyone from getting the body and energy levels they crave – except excuses. You have clearly picked up this book because you are not 100 per cent happy on the health, fitness and body front. The reality is that there is nothing stopping you from taking the steps right now that will get you the body and energy levels you crave. Nothing that is except…excuses!

      If you think about it, most diets/programmes designed for weight loss and health do actually work, on a physical level at least. If you eat less and exercise more, the end result is usually weight loss – hardly rocket science! Equally, for those looking to gain weight, this can be achieved by eating more of the right muscle-building foods and doing a regular weight-lifting programme. And if you are the correct weight but find your energy levels on the floor, then you know that eating and drinking more ‘live energy’ foods and drinks and doing plenty of exercise will make you feel more energetic – once again, a degree in common sense is not required.

      It’s not so much that people don’t know what to do to get a lean and healthy body and mind. Due purely to fear, they come up with a million excuses as to why they can’t do it at this time. And boy will people make excuse after excuse. I call it ‘the but syndrome’. ‘But I can’t because…I’m too old.’ ‘But I can’t because…I don’t have the time.’ ‘But I can’t because…blah, blah, blah.’ People who suffer from the but syndrome usually end up with a very big one – BUTT that is! Whatever ‘but because’ excuses you have, not only do they prevent you from getting what you really want, but I can guarantee they are a load of old rubbish. When looked at, none of these excuses hold any water at all.

      The only way to Stop having a big butt is to stop having a big ‘but’!

      Please do not make the mistake of looking only at the excuses that apply to you. To do that would be to ignore my most important instruction, to read all of Chapters 1 to 8 in order. You will soon see that if you haven’t used a particular excuse yet, you may have done so in the future. So without further ado, come with me as we totally shatter…

      The But Syndrome

      ‘But I can’t because…I don’t have the time’

      Of all of the excuses given as to why people don’t eat well and exercise on a regular basis this is without question the one I hear the most – “I would do, but I just don’t have the time.” It’s funny that the same people who say they don’t have the time to look after themselves seem to be able to tell you exactly what’s happening in EastEnders, Coronation Street, Emmerdale and Big Brother! They have the time to watch God knows how much TV, nip to the pub for a couple of hours a day, spend ages queuing for a ‘hip and trendy’ coffee, yet seemingly don’t have the time to go for a walk or prepare an apple!

      The one thing which we are all equal in is time. Every single one of us has access to 24 hours in a day and, no matter how busy we all think we are, we can always find time to eat well and exercise. It’s simply down to priorities. It’s like those people who say, “I didn’t have time to call you”, but what they really mean is “I didn’t have time to call YOU”. If someone had said, “here’s a number and if you call it the person on the other end of the phone will give you I million pounds”, I can guarantee they’d find the time.

      Money Rich – Time Poor

      You’ve got to ask yourself just how important you regard your health and well-being and where it fits into your priorities of life. Health and fitness should, without question, be at number one. It should be the very first thing you focus on above anything else, as without the correct nutrition and a good supply of oxygen you are not going to perform at your best. But more and more we are seeing a situation where people are Money Rich and Time Poor; or more accurately, Money Rich – Health Poor. The question really is, what’s the point of earning all that money if it gives you a heart attack in the process? What’s the point of trying to create a better tomorrow for your children if you don’t have the energy to play with them today? There’s nothing wrong with earning money, or working hard – I’m all for it – but it doesn’t mean you can’t look after your body at the same time.

      I do realize that time for many people is becoming harder and harder to come by, but the point I’m making is that despite how much we rush around like headless chickens giving the impression to the world and ourselves that we are non-stop busy from morning till night, very rarely is that actually the case.

      If we cut through the rubbish we tell ourselves, time is not the reason why we don’t get the body and supreme health we crave. Time is simply yet another excuse people can give themselves to try to justify why they aren’t healthy and don’t have the body of their dreams. But again how much time does it actually take to rustle up a few stir-fried veggies, steam a bit of fish, make a delicious fresh juice or peel a banana? How much time does it really take to go for a walk, run or jump on a mini-trampoline? How much time do you need to push some weights? Yes, it may take some degree of effort to do the exercise part of things and, yes, you ‘can’t be bothered’, but that’s nothing to do with time. Please don’t delude yourself any longer into thinking you can’t do it because of time; we can all make the time if we want to enough.

      If you have to be up for a flight at 4am to take you to paradise – you find the time. If someone close to you gets ill and you need to drop things to get to hospital – you find the time. If you crave chocolate and must have some NOW! – you find the time to go and get some. The point is if something’s important enough to you-you find the time. The problem is, up until now, your health, body shape and well-being haven’t been important enough to you. You may think they have, as like most people what you eat and how you look probably dominate a large part of your life – but you haven’t wanted it enough. You haven’t wanted it more than that tub of ice-cream for example!

      Remember, if you want to turbo-charge your life, excuses have to go out of the window and not having enough time is just like all the other excuses we come up with as to why we can’t exercise and eat well – complete bullshit!

      ‘But…I can’t afford to get healthy’

      When it comes to your health, the truth is you cannot afford not to do it. I mean, how much is your heart worth? What about your kidneys or your liver, or how about your life? You cannot put a price on health. Four members of my family have died of cancer. All these people would gladly have given every penny they had for a body clear of cancer. It’s times like these when people see clearly that money means nothing compared with health, and start wishing they had taken care of their bodies earlier.

      My number one priority is to make certain I have good quality ‘live’ nutrients flowing through my system on a daily basis, no matter what the cost. Fortunately, despite what you may think, it doesn’t
