Begin with the Problem

When you live your mission to health, you can put effort and energy into getting stronger, feeling better, and living without pain. But the truth is, sometimes, as the hero of your health story, you need to increase your understanding. It is no longer about executing the right exercise. It is not about counting another rep or checking off your exercise checklist.

You need to increase your understanding. It is about increasing your knowledge about how the parts interconnect and function together in the big picture.

I can provide you with the knowledge from my experience, and you can learn it. But, the understanding you need might need to be earned. You may need to digest how the parts interface and relate. The way a puzzle becomes clear and the big picture becomes visible.

People think they need to work harder, push further, do an extra set, rep, eat more, eat less, sleep more, meditate more, walk more, watch less tv, eat less dessert, treat themselves more….

I’ve seen people make a LEAP in progress because they stop using (only) willpower — YES, you need to make changes, change habits, adopt the behaviors to add health and energy into your life.

I have seen (in many cases more dramatic) changes when someone increases their understanding of the model and how the big picture clicks together.
