Never Ever Give Up Hope

Derek Wahler took his online weight loss business from $0 to over $600,000 in less than four years because his program WORKS.  During the course of starting this business, he was rushed to the ER and had to have emergency bowel and intestine surgery.   After fighting it for six hours and nearly passing out on my bathroom floor, I was rushed to the emergency room. There I had a six-hour emergency surgery because his colon had flipped in his body and crushed all the organs in its path. He was in the hospital for ten days with his stomach stapled together, halfway across the country from my wife, who was seven months pregnant at the time. And, this all came a few months after I quit my job to run my business full time.  After spending ten days in the hospital, he knew his life would never be the same. It gave him a deeper passion to help people who are struggling to lose weight and has developed a program that is easy to follow and not intimidating in any way.  His main program is called Ideal Body which helps someone lose up to 30 pounds or more in just 90 days even if you NEVER exercise.  Derek is currently writing a book entitled Blind Spots that will help you change your life by simply changing your thoughts!  Of course, this weight loss.   Once Derek realized that we can choose the thoughts that run through our minds, your whole life can change.  Yes, this is normal and sometimes even healthy to get frustrated, upset or even depressed.  However, those feelings are a choice and you can choose how long you want to let that negativity affect you.    Choose your thoughts instead of defaulting into anger, resentment, depression, or frustration when something bad happens.    OUR WORST MOMENTS  CAN BE OUR GREATEST TEACHER   When you hear Derek explain his simple yet successful weight loss program, you will be motivated to lose that weight NOW.

With suicide being the leading cause of death in men under 50 and 1 in 5 people suffering from a mental health problem, Rick Sharpe is a man on a mission; to raise awareness about emotional struggle and to help others suffering emotionally.  Rick wants to demonstrate to others that it is possible to heal from failed relationships and transform your own life in the process.  After a failed relationship, he realized much later in life that he needed to search through his own soul in order to discover why he kept ending up in the same place. He began to understand his fear of vulnerability and he realized that it was a time in his life where he needed to grow and keep growing.   There are no guarantees in life but it should not stop us from giving all we have to that which matters.  Never give up hope because all things  do pass and we all have choices   Rick's interview is not only a source of encouragement but practical wisdom we can apply to any area of our lives.  At the end of his interview he shared a nugget that is throught-provoking: "Do not die before your death!" “Failure is failure. I had failed. . . miserably! I suck at break-ups but who doesn’t? I was the guy next door who "had it all together!" But that’s not what goes on inside. My experience had shame written all over it, a significant departure from the person I thought I was. Failing emotionally started a journey filled with the very real pain of heartbreak and the smothering cloud of depression. I discovered what vulnerability really was and how my generation ran from it. Search your own heart and find those scars. They never really heal but they become a better part of us. To get through a day you sometimes need some assurance that you are not alone. For those who need to know there is another day worth living, you’re welcome to share this journey
