That’s the truth. Our life is what we make it. Dare to be yourself. There has never been anyone quite like you. Imitation is suicide, wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson in his famous essay on self-reliance. Be the person you always wanted to be. It makes no difference how unfavourable your situation, how little training, or money or status you have to begin with. The great question is what you do with the little you have. Think constructively. Remember you can decide yourself into failure and unhappiness, or success and happiness. Unleash your potential. Five years from now you will be precisely what you think over the next five years You will be a bigger person if you think big; you will be a smaller person if you think small.

THE WALKING DIET

Walking Diet has evolved out of the ancient Greek philosophy of diata. It is a unique combination of nutritious, low fat, lean cuisine recipies and a complete diet + exercise plan designed not only to get rid of the extra kilos we tend to accumulate but to keep them off forever. Walking Diet is not about food and eating. It is not about exercising. Like diata, it means taking a holistic view of the food we eat and the exercise our bodies need, It means taking into account our current eating habits (a personal food and drink audit is strongly recommended), and including in our diet the necessary changes that will provide long term benefits required to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Walking Diet will help you develop your own personal ‘diata’, to strike the balance and rhythm that is right for you. It is an idea we must all practice arid live with — today, tomorrow and the rest of our lives.
