He clearly outlined many strategies that he utilised and how he plans to replicate this in his second clinic. You have to see the organisation to believe it. Amazing - thank you Dr Scott Leune. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The internet is full of examples of amazing people achieving amazing things...but there is nothing stronger in my experience than actually seeing it happen with your own eyes. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For me belief strengthens when we see...they say the human mind once stretched never returns to its original dimensions. It's so true...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So take the time to challenge a belief....look up someone doing what you consider to be impossible and then imagine what your life would be like if you could do that thing...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Challenge yourself.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Exciting eh? :) But it wouldn't be fair to you if I didn't do the same.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My current impossible belief - was that it is impossible to be vegan, physically strong &amp;amp; a dynamic entrepreneur when you are on the move all the time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Careful examination of this reveals the following excuses&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;1. Not having the time to prepare meals -we all have time some just use it better than others. I definitely have time that I don't use productively that could be used. EXCUSE! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;2. Lack of credible role model-thanks to http://www.sethigherstandards.com/ &amp;amp; http://www.veganbodybuilding.com/ two sites I came across recently those excuses have gone too.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;3. Fear- fear of failing to keep a promise to myself. I'm more afraid of not fulfilling my potential so lets knock this one on the head.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Challenge yourself!  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7807369576423912905-1060211148899537374?l=nthlete.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nthlete.blogspot.com/feeds/1060211148899537374/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://nthlete.blogspot.com/2009/05/possibility.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7807369576423912905/posts/default/1060211148899537374'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7807369576423912905/posts/default/1060211148899537374'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nthlete.blogspot.com/2009/05/possibility.html' title='Possibility'/><author><name>Alkali_Aalok</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13630972677038889813</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hWCQWzy9Wu4/SnNEUQhksoI/AAAAAAAAAAM/Xo5bROKuZzo/S220/alkali_edit.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7807369576423912905.post-2605617000376393019</id><published>2009-05-25T15:55:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-25T16:02:22.102-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Start</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;What is an Nthlete?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;An Nthlete is someone who puts his/her heart or soul into an activity...going to the Nth degree. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;They live with passion, purpose and abounding energy, we all know people like this and we love to be around them. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My blog is about all of us pushing our boundaries by meeting and learning from other Nthletes so that we can all increase the passion, energy and success in our lives. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I truly believe success is simply spending your life as you choose..&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Choice here is the key word.
