MEAT Me At The Top

By: Derrick Hayes

Are you ready for your dreams to come true? Start expecting that they will. When I started to exercise more and work on my eating habits great things started to happen.

My motivational mentor James Amps favorite quote is "If you want something that you never had you've got to do something you've never done." This quote from James Amps has always stayed with me.

At the end of 2006 I looked back and reflected on how I could go to the next level. I had not only learned how to lose weight, but also how to keep it off.

My New Years Resolution was to not eat meat for the first 21 Days of the year. For the last 35 years I have eaten at least one meal a day. I have never gone without meat.

I used my creativity to help me during this three week journey. Every letter in the word has new meaning.E.A.T. This process inspired me and will encourage you to M.E.A.T. Your Expectations.

The M means Make Up Your Mind.

In Romans 12:2 it says "we are transformed by the renewing of our mind." Pull out a pen right now and write down something that you would like to accomplish. Then read it aloud to yourself and begin to think about how you can instead of how you can't

The E is so that you Exercise your rights.

You have the right to remain silent and you also have the right to a better life. Reality happen when you act on your dream and it takes you closer to it.

The A is for Adjustments.

Once you have made up your mind and began to take action you will definitely make adjustments from time to time. Things will not always go the way you want them to, but if you hang in there greatness will become a part of your life.

The T is for Taking notes.

When you make the proper adjustments and see what works and does not work you will begin to develop a blueprint for success. When you record your results it will not only help you, but also the next person who is following in your footsteps.

It's 12:01 AM on Monday January 22nd, 2007 and I have officially gone 21 Days without eating any meat. It's true, I'm now doing something that I have never done before. Thousands of people are reading my articles each week.

In you there is power that will never go out. The way you find the power is by taking a look within, which will guide you to M.E.A.T. Your Expectations.
