Focus On What You Get, Not What You Give Up, With Your Healthy Choices

Think of all the times you say no when you choose what you think is best for your health.

All the shouldnt or cant haves can get tiresome.

Instead of fixating on no, focus on when it’s possible for you to say yes.

Now this is not like shouting a resounding yes!

to eating all the ice cream for every meal (although that would beawesome).

The next time you have an internal tug-of-war (i.e.

No, I shouldnt go to 2-for-1 margaritas because I need to go to the gym.

), turn it into a way to practice gratitude for the things you are fortunate enough to enjoy.

Some of Marks examples:

Yes!

I get to enjoy a hearty roast or juicy steak tonight!

I get to spend the evening walking around the park with my partner this evening.

I get to make that favorite Primal dish for Thanksgiving in a few weeks.

I get to enjoy my morning meditation time.

I get to feel the sun on me and take in the fresh air over my lunch hour walk.

I get to relish that afternoon nap!

Mark puts it simply, You expend untold energy maintaining that no resistance.

Forget the suffering and sacrifice.
