Gratitude

I am watching a DVD as I am working of the Craig Ballantyne seminar that I went to last year.

It seems hard to believe that that seminar was a year ago.

So much has happened in the last 12 months.

One of the guest speakers, Dax Moy, is just talking about gratitude and I thought that was a pretty relevant topic considering that the US will be celebrating Thanksgiving tomorrow.

I really like the idea of Thanksgiving and I really wish that would have been the one American holiday that us Aussies had of embraced.

Unfortunately, for whatever reason, the idea never really took off here.

So this is a short list of what I am thankful for.

* First up, I am thankful everyday for being with my girlfriend Bron.



* I am thankful for the family environment that I grew up in and believe that my parents made me who I am today.

* I am thankful for the example my Dad set for me in life and in business even though he is not around to enjoy it now with me.

* I am thankful that I learned how important my family really means to me but disappointed that it took my Dad's passing to actually realise it.

* I am thankful that I live 4 doors up the road from my brother and his wife so I can spend more time with them and my little neice, Lucy.



* I am thankful that I have a great relationship with Bron's family and actually enjoy the time that I spend with them.

* I am thankful for the clients that I am lucky enough to have every day.

* I am thankful that I actually enjoy spending time with these people each session

* I am thankful that I don't have to train people that I don't enjoy spending time with

* I am thankful that I am in a position to help change people's lives and help them lose the weight that they deserve to lose.

* I am thankful for people like you who read what I write each time.

* I am thankful when I get a new subscriber to my newsletters.

* I am thankful when I get a sale and someone puts their trust in my Aussie Fatblast program.

* I am thankful that I have the opportunity to do what I love doing everyday instead of turning up to a job that I hate every day.

* I am thankful for having had the opportunity to travel to Florida last year to attend Craig Ballantyne's seminar which now influences the direction my business will head in.

* I am thankful for the opportunity I have had to be in Mastermind Groups with some amazing people who have taught me a lot.

* And finally, I am thankful that you have indulged me writing this list of gratitude and now I challenge you to do the same thing.

Your Supermarket Insiders Tour is a Click Away

I hope your weekend was as good as mine.

I got myself a new car yesterday so that's pretty exciting. Can't wait to pick it up on Friday!

Now before I give you the inside mail on how you should plan your shopping at the supermarket, I wanted to give you a little tip.

I was at my accountants this morning to see how much damage I would be owing our mate the tax man and I got a pleasant surprise which is also a very valuable lesson.

It seems that I was very diligent last financial year and actually overpaid so I get a nice little refund of $1600 odd dollars.

How good is that!

So the lesson here is planning.

I planned and budgeted so I could pay a decent sum of money each quarter with my BAS statement.

Sure that money would've been handy that month but now it feels like Christmas time when I am actually getting a nice cheque back from mr tax man.

How can this benefit you?

Imagine what sort of results you can on your fat loss mission when you have planned all your goals and training sessions in advance.

Do you think the people who are achieving great results just stumble around and say "I might do so and so today"?

Of course not.

As the old saying goes

"Failing to plan is planning to fail"


Oh before I forget, I also received my first commission cheque this morning for my Aussie Fatblast System! You can how happy I am to have this baby in my hands.

I can't retire yet, but gee it feels good that people like you have trusted me to give you the fat loss results that you deserve!



Now to the meat and potatoes of my message today. I'd love you to check out this video that shows you how you some great shopping tips on how you should be planning your supermarket trip to ensure that you avoid all the rubbish that can be found in these places and hence increasing your fat loss results.

I'd love you to share it with a mate if you agree with me - thanks in advance!



Don't let fear hold you back!

My Personal Invitation to YOU!

If you have been catching any of my blog postings in the last couple of days, you probably would’ve noticed that the mega popular 12 Days of Fitness promotion is just around the corner again.

http://www.12daysoffitness.com

Can you believe that the big fat man in the red suit is just around the corner. That sort of spins me out a bit when you realise that there is only 6 weeks left in the year.

Anyway, because my gift went down well last year, my boy Dax Moy has asked me back again so I’m pumped.

This year I’ve raised the bar and am contributing 2 special gifts, one of which will especially blow your mind.

The first one is a special report that I’ve put together entitled

The Little Black Book of Fat Loss Secrets

You’re going to get your hot little hands on


• Sure fire fat blasting exercises that can be done in hardly any time at all

• Some of my favourite quotes that didn’t make the cut on my initial book I release last year – these are newer quotes that I’ve found for you!

• Some more hot must read books to pump up your tyres

But my favourite gift, which has a massive value of just under $150 big ones is my

Aussie Fatblast Hotseat Interrogations

I’ve got 5 of my favourite interrogations that I’ve done in the last couple of months with some of the world’s best fat loss experts. I was going to sell this product but Dax got me on a good day, so you’re going to be getting it just for being a part of this special 12 Days promo.

This is what some of my mates are going to share with you:

• Why interval training is up to nine times more effective than regular aerobic training

• How a former fat kid now has a body to die for and how you can too

• What motivates me to get out of bed everyday (hey that’s a good un right)

• Some simple tips to help you pre-prepare your meals before work each day – this alone is worth signing up for!

Sounds pretty sweet right?

Now, there’s gotta be a catch yeah?

No, all of this top stuff, plus some sweet gear from some of my other industry mates (there’s over 250 of us on board this global phenomenon) is all free.

It’s our way of sharing the Christmas love.

All you need to do is click right here
and preregister.

The presents get released on Dec 10 but get in early as I reckon this site could crash on the day – there’s half a million people expected to be heading there!

What's your excuse?

Fire UP!

Press Release: 12 Days of Fitness is Coming

For Immediate Release


Local Fitness Expert Donates Free Fitness Resources to World's Largest Health
and Fitness Gift Giving Bonanza



Sydney’s own fat loss expert, Daniel Munday, today announced a very special invite to take part in the world's largest ever fitness information gift-giving, http://www.12daysoffitness.com where an estimated 500,000 people will benefit from the combined fitness expertise of over 250 personal trainers, physical therapists and nutritionists from around the world.

Munday was chosen to represent Sydney and Australia from among thousands of fitness experts in recognition of his specialist knowledge in the area of fat loss for the busy professional who has limited time to exercise.

He is expected to make quite an impact when he releases his latest box set of Aussie Fatblast Hotseat interrogations on mp3 which are aimed at helping busy people get the fat loss results that they deserve. These Hotseat interviews are so powerful, Munday was going to release them as a stand alone product but as a special Christmas present for the 12 Days of Fitness promotion, he has been talked into giving you these powerful secrets for free.

Munday said "The biggest reason I created this melting pot of fellow fat loss experts is because I believe that there are so many myths that abound about fat loss and if we can help break them down people are going to have the best chance yet of getting the body that they finally deserve”.

Weight gain is a serious problem to so many busy professionals who are tied to a desk bound job all day. Most of these people have tried all of the traditional approaches to fat loss and have failed to achieve any significant results because of these outdated methods. “I wanted to give these busy professionals a simple, straightforward, yet seriously effective means that will give them answers without having to read through pages and pages of information. They can simply download the mp3 recordings and plug them in their iPod and away they go!"

Munday continued, "What makes the release of these audios so special is that it's going to be part of a much bigger and impactful program as part of Dax Moy's '12 days of fitness' program where we anticipate that over 500,000 people will receive advice and help with achieving their health and fitness goals for 2009. To have been selected for such an important role within the project is a great honour indeed"

You can receive your own free downloads of Daniel Munday’s Aussie Fatblast Hotseat Interrogations and hundreds of others for free by visiting http://www.12daysoffitness.com and getting your name onto the gift list which will begin delivering fitness gifts worldwide from December 10th.

The Gardener and Fat Loss Music

A lot happened in my world in 2005 as some of you may already know.

My Dad died, I started my business and I met my girlfriend.

So I guess you could say it was a bit of a roller coaster year with a pretty big low to start it off. At least it finished on an up.

Anyway today is 3 years since I had my first date with my now girlfriend Bron.

Somehow she has managed to put up with me for the last 3 years so she must be a saint in waiting!

Hopefully I'm not that bad right?

We had a nice little celebration dinner at the Summit restaurant on Saturday night where I had to put the healthy eating plan to the side and enjoy some of the chefs fine food.

But it was worth it!

We made up for it yesterday with a killer Tabata workouts strength session following my mate BJ Gaddour's Workout Muse Fat Loss Music tracks.

I did an interview with BJ a few weeks ago which I'd love for you to check out - don't worry it won't cost you a cent to listen too.

This link will expire in one week so you can log on and download and be sure to let me know what you think of it.

http://senduit.com/2babbc

I've got a few of these interviews up my sleeve for you so make sure you keep your eyes peeled.

BJ has some great answers to some of my questions on being a former fat kid who got himself in shape and to steal one of his lines is now "crankin' it"!

Anyways, down to my little quote for the week.

Some people will tell you that football players don't have many intelligent things to say. A lot of the time they are right. Especially if you are talking about some of the dunces running around in the NRL these days.

But that's a story for another day.

However, these words from Chad Johnson, the Cincinnati Bengals Wide Receiver (American Football player) put that thought to rest for today at least.

I really like this quote and I challenge you to take Chad's words and put them into practice. I will be leading from the front as usual.

"Some people say the grass is always greener on the other side. I say be the gardener. Water it. Feed it. Make your own grass grow. I make the grass greener wherever I am. I'm the gardener."

One more thing, if you missed my post here on Friday, scroll down and check it out!

I'd love to hear what you think about the latest research on being a fat kid and childhood obesity.

Childhood Obesity Myths Finally Put to Rest

Finally there was a research article quoted in the popular media yesterday that didn't actually encourage people to continue their bad habits.

The usual drivel that is found normally revolves around some genius in a white coat saying that study XYZ actually proves that drinking a 6 pack of beer a day is good for your stress levels or heart health.

Maybe the time is turning.

I knew that I'd have to see one some day so here it is. Drum roll please...

This joint study between us Aussies and our US mates found that children as young as 10 years old had the hardened arteries of 45 year olds.

Wow.

That is serious.

The study shows that kids that eat a regular diet of chips and other highly processed foods actually have the heart age of their parents.

Can you believe that?

I am glad that this has finally come to light.

I have always advocated that if people treated their dogs the same way they treat their kids, with all the rubbish they feed them, not to mention exercising their dogs more than they encourage their kids to be active, they would be locked up with cruelty to animals charges.

Why is that not in place with kids?

Oh that's right. All the do-gooders will jump up and down and complain.

Childhood Obesity is getting to become a serious epidemic.

This is going to be the first generation where the parents are probably going to outlive the kids on a more common basis which is very sad.

At least most of the damage the parents have done more than likely would not have started as a primary school aged kid or even younger.

What can be done?

Simple.

Education.

My mum and sister constantly tell me horror stories about what the kids in their classes (they are teachers) bring in for lunch everyday.

Fresh fruit, vegetables, lean meats, nuts and seeds should be the cornerstone of any persons diet whether they be kids or adults, just like I recommend in the Secret Guide to Smart Eating.

Start getting habits ingrained into kids when they are babies.

If they start eating veges when they are babies they will enjoy them. I see that with my mates kids. They are starting the right habits early.

Don't be lazy. Your kids can't afford you to be.

Keep Your Head Up

I got a blast from the past yesterday. I was back at my Mum's house cleaning out a box from under my old bed.

I was surprised by some of the stuff that was in there. I mean I can't believe I actually saved some of that rubbish thinking that one day I might need it.

One thing in particular that I was looking for was a box with a bunch of tapes in there - you are old enough to remember tapes aren't you?

I used to have literally hundreds of these suckers. I spent my youth listening to tunes whenever I could.

One of those tapes I found was from an old 2Pac song - Keep Your Head Up.

Don't laugh - that stuff is great!

It seemed appropriate considering that as we speak people are getting the tap on the shoulder saying that they are no longer needed at their company due to restructuring.

If you, or someone who you love is affected by the downsizing here is something that you should remember:

“Circumstances do not make the man. They merely reveal him to himself” – Epictetus, Roman Philosopher

People, myself included here, learn the most about themselves when they are under adversity.

I can honestly say that I wouldn't be the person that I am today if a massive life altering wake up call hadn't have happened to me 3 and a half years ago.

Who knows where I would have ended up. I just know that I wouldn't be doing what I am doing now.

While this death of a loved one knocked me off my feet I realised that I could take it as a wake up call or whinge about how life sucked and how hard done by we were.

I chose to use it as inspiration.

I hope you and your loved ones to do whenever your second chance comes around.

Don't let fear hold you back!

Does Fruit Make You Fat?

I could make this a really short post and say NO and that would be it.

But that wouldn't really look good would it?

So now you should know that fruit does NOT make you fat let's take a look at why.

Yes, fruit is full of sugar.

BUT it is natural sugar. It is sugar that your body needs.

The main reason why you should be eating fruit is simply because of all the vitamins and minerals that are contained in a simple piece of fruit.

Did you know that there are over 10,000 vitamins and minerals in an apple that have been discovered.

Note that is not all there is, that is just the ones that have been discovered.

And that is just from one little apple.

Your body needs fruit just like your car needs petrol.

If I had a choice of getting my sugar intake for the day from the 3-4 servings (at least) of fruit that I eat or from having a couple of sugars with my coffee, or by having bread for breakfast you should know what my answer would be.

The fruit of course.

Don't fear fruit.

Embrace it as part of your fat loss mission.

Fruit is essential for your fat loss results.

You should be snacking on fruit as a mid morning or mid afternoon snack option but don't forget the one big secret tip that will accelerate your fat loss results.

This little tip is one of the secrets contained in my Secret Guide to Smart Eating that comes with my Aussie Fatblast Success System but I'll give you a heaps up here.

You need to be eating protein with each meal.

More on that one another day though.

What's your excuse?
Fire UP!

Tour de Lance and Reading for Fat Loss

I spent last night looking at hotels and flights for our upcoming trip to Adelaide for the Tour Down Under, also known as Lance Armstrongs comeback to cycling.

I always get excited when I am planning and researching trips. I always get excited by looking at what you can get up to in certain places around the world and it just builds the anticipation for the trip itself.

Especially when there is a massive drawcard like Lance Armstrong.

Maybe I missed my calling as a travel planner?

Nah, I think I'd rather be doing what I'm lucky enough to do now.

Moving on, I often speak about how essential reading is for anybody who wants to be successful.

Successful in business.

Successful in fat loss.

Successful in life.

Successful in (insert your goal here).

This quote I found for today, from an unknown source, definitely hits the nail right on the head.

“Success is kept on the top shelf, and the only way to reach it is by standing on all the books you’ve read”.

So, for the record, I am reading two books at the moment as well as a couple of business subscriptions that I get each month so my reading schedule is pretty full on.

The 2 books are Richistan which is an interesting look into the lives and minds of the mega rich and the other is an infomarketing Dan Kennedy book.

I'd love to hear what you're reading.

You can post your comments here on the blog.

Don't forget to check out my video that I posted here on Friday if you missed it.

I'd love you to spread the word to your friends about the dangers of diet shakes and weight loss shakes

Don't let fear hold you back!
