7 Principles To Success!

So a few weeks ago, I was in Dallas for AdvoCare success school www.AdvoCareConcepts.com and I saw one of the most astounding speakers ever – Andy Andrews! www.AndyAndrews.com He absolutely changed the way I look at reaching my goals... My goals in business, in my personal life, in everything! He talked for many hours about the 7 principles for success. I took lots of notes and learned a lot, so I wanted to give you the 7 principles to success ( in a very shortened version) so you can have great results as well.

Take these 7 principles to heart. Read them many times over and remember them.

1. Responsibility – I am responsible for my life so make better choices!
2. I will seek wisdom – we are flooded with information. Wisdom is rare!
3. I am a person of action - we have to do something for something to happen!
4. I will have a decided heart – more people fail of an undecided heart!
5. Today, I will choose to be happy – what is it that other people would change about you?
6. I will greet each day with a forgiving spirit – it’s a decision, not an emotion!
7. Persist without exception – the game isn’t over until you say it’s over!

Seriously, live by these and you will be more successful than you can ever imagine!

The big question is how many and what type of calories are needed to burn fat, lose weight and lose inches.

How many calories should be put in your body to burn more fat? You need to ask yourself a few questions in order to answer this. How active are you? You can add as much as 500 more calories per day if you are a very active person, or add just a little, maybe an extra 100 calories if you do less than 60 minutes of cardiovascular exercise per week.

It does matter what type of calories you put in as well! You absolutely, no question about it, need to have complex carbohydrates in order to burn fat. I repeat – you need complex carbohydrates in your system in order to burn fat!

The best way to burn fat is to eat a small amount of protein and complex carbs every 3-4 hours. Combining these together will increase your metabolism. Most people will eat about 1500-2000+ calories each day to burn fat calories and start shedding inches and body weight.

I personally eat around 2500-3000 calories every single day because I’m am very, very active, in my jobs, in my home life, (taking care of a 5 year old and a 10 month old-that’s 2000 calories burned right there!) and the exercise and activity I get in for my personal health and enjoyment. For those of you that don’t know what I look like, I’m not a big guy! I’m been eating this way for years and my weight fluctuates each day between 155-165. I am also very, very strong, and am very toned. I basically look like a very mini version of a body builder, and that’s the way I want to look. My body fat is usually a bit under 10% or just over 10%. So I am living proof that the more calories you put in your body – good calories – the faster your metabolism will be which means more fat being burned!

Now you have to make sure before you start shoving in the calories, that you are active enough to burn and use the calories you put in your system. So if you are not very active, and want to burn fat, lose weight and inches, probably stay around the 1500 calories per day range. However, if you are a 6’6 tall guy, and weigh 350+ pounds, guess what? 1500 calories is not going to cut it. You will need more, lots more, because you have to work twice as hard to burn fat. So it depends on your size as well.

Important Question To Ask Yourself...

Chad Cannon here, YOUR Fat Loss Expert!
I have a very important question I want you to ask yourself. The answer you give yourself is so meaningful to your entire life, your entire being. The answer you give yourself is the structure of your entire life!
What is my question? You better make sure you are seated before you read on, because that’s how meaningful it is. It truly defines your entire life!
Okay, here it is…
How “passionate” are you about the things in your life?
I’m talking about the things that you really and truly love. I’m talking about the things you really and truly care about. I’m talking about the love you give to others, and yourself. I’m talking about the goals you set for your wealth. I’m talking about the goals you set for your health.
For the most part my training clients come in to lose weight and expect me to do all the work to make them lose weight. The fact is, they are not going to lose anything unless there is a “passion” to do so. If that “passion” is there, they will do anything in their power, that they know is the best and smartest way to do so to get the results they truly want.
“Passion” drives you! I cannot put it any simpler than that. “Passion” drives you!
For those of you that don’t have “passion” or don’t know where to get it…”passion” comes from one place and one place only!
From “Emotion”!
“Emotion” WILL fuel your “passion”!”Emotion” WILL fill your “passion” up so much you will feel like you can accomplish anything. Not just feel it, you know it! I’m not just saying that, I truly mean that!
I was in Dallas last weekend for an Advocare www.AdvoCareConcepts.com Success School. The experience I had during this ranked up there with my children being born and the moment I saw my wife walk down the isle. It was truly that “emotional” for me! I’m not ashamed to say I got teary-eyed at least 20 times over the three day event. These were tears of “passion” and love of my future – of what I know is going to happen to me, my family, and generations of my family to come. I saw many people go through that transformation up front and saw people achieve their purpose in life right before my eyes. I saw people arrive where they’ve been trying to get for years.
I know what my purpose is in life here on this earth. I’ve known for quite some time now. The difference is I know now how to fulfill what I’m suppose to do. I now have “passion” about it, and I got it from all the emotion I had and saw people go through last weekend at the Advocare Success School.
I saw and heard so many GREAT “passionate” people that spoke from emotion. Two of the best I saw were Andy Andrews www.andyandrews.com . He had to be the best speaker I’ve EVER seen or heard. He’s also probably the craziest person I’ve ever seen! You HAVE to check out his books! I’m so not kidding! Get them NOW!
The other person you might be pretty shocked at. Don’t laugh! It was presidential candidate Governor Mike Huckabee www.mikehuckabee.com . I learned many things about his past he shared with us…did you know he was given by doctors a “health” death sentence about 7 years ago from having type II diabetes? He went on to lose 150+ pounds, run 4 marathons including the New York City Marathon, and so much more. That’s a whole other story I’ll bring up later some other day.
Honestly, I’ve NEVER EVER been around so many honest, influential, “passionate” people in my entire life. I’m talking probably 2-3 thousand people.
If you want to sit down and talk with me or phone conversation personally with me, about how to become “passionate” and have purpose in your life, I am absolutely here for you. I might not be able to help you. I might not be able to draw from your emotion. I might not be able to help at all, but on the other hand…I MIGHT! I’m giving out –in this newsletter only- my personal cell phone number. You can call me anytime, no charge, no fees of any kind. Let me help you with what I’ve learned. Call NOW if you want true “passion” and purpose in your life. 843-263-6287.
If anyone wants to attend the next Advocare Success School with me and my wife, the next one is in February 2009 in Dallas. We already have our tickets! Let me help you get yours NOW! Call me 843-263-6287!

Okay everyone, I have a short video that I want you to watch from the time I was in Dallas. One of my good friends “Z Buttar” from Florida, spoke a few words for me. Check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/shapingconceptshh

GET WEIGHT LOSS RESULTS NOW!

If you’re like me you’ve had it with all the weight loss quick-fixes. I created a special report after watching so many people continue to struggle with weight loss primarily due to misinformation. Experience has shown me that people who succeed in losing weight do so with supportive nutrition along with a combination of resistance and cardiovascular exercise. I’m not going to give you a bunch of feel good information like “eat all your favorite foods and still lose weight.” I’ve had it up to here with all the lies! YES…you still can enjoy your favorite foods in moderation but if you’re looking to change your body you’ll have to start doing things differently.

I can’t tell you how many people I’ve consulted with over the years that just refused to let go of the way they eat. For most people it’s the way they don’t eat. If you’re going to be successful with weight loss you MUST open up your mind to a new way of thinking. I’ve heard all the excuses a hundred times over like “I’m too busy to eat that often”…. or “I could never drink that much water.” Look, I’m not going make you do anything…my objective is to simply share with you the TRUTH about how your body burns fat...
