<p>You can&#8217;t make this stuff up. Man suffers heart attack while eating at the Heart Attack Grill. You are what you eat and be careful of what you wish for!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s okay to eat out and eat beef once in awhile. I prefer that you eat grass fed beef and that only sparingly. Also be sure to eat twice or three times as much veggies as meat. Then take 2 Omega-3 fish oil capsules if you are supremely healthy, 4 per day if you have risk factors, and 6 per day if you have been diagnosed with heart disease. </p>
<p>Best to take in two doses, morning and evening. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1><span style="font-family: impact,chicago;">Cholesterol</span></h1>
<p>If there is one word in your vocabulary that you may think you have learned quite enough about it is <strong>cholesterol.</strong> The biggest source of our common knowledge about cholesterol comes from the pharmaceutical industry. Statin drugs are the best selling drugs in all of mankind’s history. Lipitor alone spends $60,000,000 a year on television advertising. If you ask ten people, “What’s cholesterol?” The answer will invariably be some version of … “That’s the cause of heart disease.”</p>
<p>So, when the doctor sends you for a blood test and your total cholesterol comes back in a range that seems to change from year to year  and says, “We’d better put you on a statin.” . You may be open to that because you’ve seen all those rugged men and good looking ladies on television agreeing and being so thankful that their doctor put them on a statin.</p>
<p>Here is a provocative question from Dr. Jerome Hoffman, UCLA Professor of Emergency Medicine:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">What if you put 250 people in a room and told them they each would pay $1000 a year for a drug they would have to take every day, that many of them would get diarrhea and muscle pain, that the side effects include possible liver damage and that 249 of them would have no benefit? How many of them do you think would take that offer?</p>
<p>In fact, some of you may have taken that offer, already.  The drugs Doctor Hoffman is referring to are statin drugs. Let’s look for a short moment at this questionable treatment plan.  It started long ago with the Framingham Heart Study, the longest study of its kind.</p>
<p>For many years, researchers poured over data about the causes of death of citizens of Framingham, Massachusetts.  It was concluded that high cholesterol correlated to heart disease.  No living subjects were interviewed or examined. This study only involved an analysis of medical certificates indicating the cause of death and those were  tabulated and statistically analyzed.</p>
<p>Western medicine does many things well, but has also been habitual in superficially treating symptoms without looking to find what’s behind the symptoms! As advanced as western medicine is, it too often treats symptoms without investigating root causes. Doctors are busy and their practice is to treat symptoms, first.</p>
<p>The flaw with the idea of treating cholesterol as a symptom is that it is treated only as high cholesterol, rather than recognizing underlying conditions, such as inflammation or other chronic conditions.</p>
<p><em>What is cholesterol, exactly?</em></p>
<p>Cholesterol is part of the bigger picture of human health. Cholesterol is a fat the liver produces for scores of functions. Cholesterol controls the production of hormones; it protects the organs in your body; it is part of your immune system and, on a daily basis,truly is responsible for keeping you alive and functioning. In short, cholesterol is your friend, not your the enemy.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;" align="center"><strong><a href="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Bigbusiness.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-6406" style="border-width: 2px; border-color: black; border-style: solid;" title="Bigbusiness" src="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Bigbusiness.png" alt="" width="460" height="240" /></a></strong></p>
<p>Source: <a href="http://yourlife.usatoday.com/health/story/2011-11-15/In-battle-of-cholesterol-drugs-Lipitor-as-good-as-Crestor/51205856/1">USATODAY</a></p>
<p>As an example of one man&#8217;s story:  Let&#8217;s consider  Tim Russert from Meet the Press. He had just returned back to work from a family vacation in Italy.  He died of a massive heart attack. He was on Lipitor and his total cholesterol was 150. Unfortunately, Lipitor didn’t prevent the heart attack.</p>
<p>More recently many doctors and research scientiests are recognizing that it is inflammation plus cholesterol that create problems.</p>
<p>Let’s face facts. Processed junk food with pro-inflammatory high fructose corn syrup<span style="text-decoration: line-through;">,</span> and processed trans fats are wreaking havoc on peoples’ health. Many strong voices are making the case that these post modern diseases of heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, dementia are inadvertently self inflicted. The body just is not recognizing these new, unnatural foods and the result is poor, failing health.</p>
<p>What’s the solution? Is there a solution? As simplistic as it sounds, eat better and exercise more.</p>
<p>In the arena of magic pills, one piece of the puzzle is available to you and has gained a large following in the alternative health communities. Now, doctors across the nation have started recommending more fat in the diet. Not just any fat but a certain fat called Omega-3s.</p>
<p>Omega-3s are a natural food product that has been clinically studied since the 1970s. The American Heart Association says,</p>
<p>“Omega-3 fatty acids benefit the heart of healthy people, and those at high risk of, or those who have, cardiovascular disease.” There are three distinct group of people mentioned in this short statement.  1. Healthy People benefit. 2. People with high risk factors benefit and 3. People who actually have heart disease also benefit from Omega-3s.</p>
<p>Omega-3s are found in walnuts, flaxseed, chia seeds and of course fish oils.</p>
<h2><span style="font-family: impact,chicago;">Omega-3s have been related to:</span></h2>
<ul>
<li>Reversal of Heart Disease</li>
<li>Improvement of Brain Function</li>
<li>Supports Eye Health</li>
<li>Natural Anti-Inflammatory</li>
<li>Better Joint Health</li>
<li>Better Mood</li>
</ul>
<p>Here is a 20 page report of the findings on Omega-3s as published by NIH in www.pubmed.gov. <a href="http://s3.amazonaws.com/Garey_Simmons/Omega-3-Miracle-3.pdf" target="_blank">Download now.</a> <a href="http://s3.amazonaws.com/Garey_Simmons/Omega-3-Miracle-3.pdf" target="_blank">(Right click and save)</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.webmd.com/diet/guide/good-fat-bad-fat-facts-about-omega-3"><em>Web</em>MD</a>  article review by Dr. Louise Chang</p>
<p> “The benefits of omega-3s include reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke while helping to reduce symptoms of hypertension, depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), joint pain and other rheumatoid problems, as well as certain skin ailments. Some research has even shown that omega-3s can boost the immune system and help protect us from an array of illnesses including Alzheimer’s disease.</p>
<p>It takes only a few dollars a month and a few seconds a day to take a couple of Omega-3 capsules. It will decrease the likelihood of stroke and heart attack, it will help your joints, it will improve brain function and may help to prevent dementia, and it will help modulate your cholesterol, hormones and immunity system.</p>
<p>I started this 15 second a day regimen in 2005 and can tell you from my own personal experience, it works. Yes, there are few other things you should do, diet and exercise and we can share more on that later,  but taking omega-3s is all upside and no downside. I call it a gateway to a healthy life.  Try it for 3 months and see if you are feeling better getting healthier.</p>
<p>If you are on a statin, <a title="CoQ10 Ubiquinol" href="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/optimal-health-products/coq10-ubiquinol/">click here.</a> We are not in the position to tell anyone which medicines they should take or shouldn&#8217;t take. That&#8217;s not our job. However, if you are on a statin and you and your doctor feel you need to stay on it, then please consider using <a href="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/optimal-health-products/coq10-ubiquinol/">Optimal Health Bridge Ubiquinol CoQ10</a>. It will help replace the lost CoQ10 that your heart muscle needs. </p>
<p>Whether or not you are on statins, if you want to get healthier, please consider the Omega-3 Protocol.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/optimal-health-products/"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-6084" title="Garey-Best-Sellers" src="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Garey-Best-Sellers1-300x210.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="210" /></a>Look, I am nice guy (usually) and like to play by the rules. However, I am not afraid to tell it like it is.</p>
<p>Until February 2011, I was a RES-Q reseller. We had a great 5 year run with RES-Q and I freely admit that they have good products. I know they work, because they worked for me. I also freely admit that we picked up a lot of customers through this relationship because of the work of Tim Shields the founder. The grown up children of Mr. Shields now have the reins of the company and as a matter of course, things change.</p>
<p>I also give credit to our success as RES-Q distributors because we are little guys who tried harder. Every customer is precious. We were and still are customer centric. We don&#8217;t have rules that shut people out. Nor are we rude to our customers. We picked up a lot of customers from N3 Inc because the success and hard work of Tim Shields was not always carried on by the present day leadership and staff of the Res-Q company. Their loss, our gain and hopefully your gain. After all, you are the judge and jury and your verdict is the one that counts!</p>
<p>We are at the one year anniversary mark of parting company with N3 Inc.</p>
<p>Today I visited the N3 Res-Q site and had to thank my lucky stars that we left their company.</p>
<p>The only two resellers that signed the February 2011 agreement are being undercut by Res-Q. They force the reseller to sell a 3 pack of RES-Q 1250 at $123 and on the Res-Q site, it&#8217;s still $96.99. One of the resellers has taken to offering commemorative coins on Ebay as it seems they can&#8217;t make money with Res-Q. Once a thriving distributor, now has no rank or traffic at all. </p>
<p>N3&#8242;s Res-Q website is still very difficult to use and navigate. I added a package to the cart that was without description. The next screen said &#8220;true&#8221; and the rest of the page was blank. Like all of us they still have work to do with their website.</p>
<p>However, for those of you who use Red Rice Yeast or LDL-less, this was shocking. </p>
<p>Their one bottle price of LDL-Less is $32.95 and we sell essentially the same product, same potency, same quantity for $19.95. Our 3 bottle price is even better only $16 a bottle.</p>
<p>In a tough economy, you have to cut back. In fact, the government has curtailed our buying power with suspect fiscal policies. I dare say a dollar today is not equal to a dollar 3 or 4 years ago or even last year. So you have to look for deals.</p>
<p><strong>Here&#8217;s a look.</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/naturesshield.png"><img class="wp-image-6309 alignnone" title="naturesshield" src="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/naturesshield.png" alt="" width="698" height="400" /></a></p>

<p><a href="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/red-rice-yeast/">Buy Our Red Rice Yeast and Save!</a></p>
<p>I wish everyone well, including the Res-Q company.  We all have our faults and according to the Bible, none of us are without fault. But like Avis, we try harder.</p>
<p>If you have any comments about my unguarded opinion, feel free to share yours!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><a href="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Epicor-VitD3.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-6126" title="Epicor-VitD3" src="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Epicor-VitD3-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="240" /></a>Flu Shots Only Good for Big Business </strong></p>
<p>A new study shows that flu shots don&#8217;t work nearly as well as experts think they do.</p>
<p>Researchers now think they only work for about 60 percent of people. That makes them about 30 percent less effective than previously thought.</p>
<p>Newspapers have picked up on this finding and are saying flu shots aren&#8217;t effective enough.</p>
<p>But the real story isn&#8217;t that flu shots aren&#8217;t effective enough&#8230;but that they&#8217;re not effective at all.</p>
<p>As we&#8217;ve told you before, flu shots are virtually useless. And a deeper review of this new study proves it.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s because buried within the study is another finding. And that finding shows that flu shots only help about one person out of every 100 who take them.</p>
<p>So how can one study show two radically different findings &#8211; and both are considered accurate?</p>
<p>Dr. Nortin Hadler says it all comes down to manipulating your results to get the headline you want. He&#8217;s taught at the University of North Carolina for over 25 years and is member of the American Society of Clinical Investigation. He studied at Yale and got his MD from Harvard.</p>
<p>&#8220;The use of medicalese is inexcusable,&#8221; says Dr. Hadler. He says it&#8217;s a &#8220;reprehensible&#8221; way of &#8220;torturing scientific data and massaging statistical analyses&#8221; to protect or promote pharmaceutical drugs.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I have been able to spend the last six Winters with no sick days, no day time by taking two supplements: Epicor and Vitamin D-3. </p>
<p>Add both of these supplements to your Shopping cart now:</p>

<p><div class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 160px"><img src="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/gareygivingthanks-150x150.jpg" alt="Garey Simmons" width="150" height="150" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Learn my 15 Second Secret!</p></div>
<p>My name is Garey Simmons and I have been able to reverse my heart disease and diminish my risk factors, taking one action a day and it only takes me 15 seconds! Thousands of folks have learned my secret! You can too!</p>
<p><strong>The Problems with Pharmaceuticals</strong></p>
<p>The way doctors deal with risk factors and heart disease in general is with their prescription pad. You&#8217;d think they&#8217;d get writer&#8217;s cramp and slow it down a bit. But, statin drugs are the best selling drugs in the world. It&#8217;s an extremely lucrative consortium! Millions and millions of prescriptions are written every year. Heck, one famous statin drug company spends 60 million dollars a year on TV advertising. Read my Lip(s)-i-tor! Ooops hope the editors don&#8217;t get mad at me.</p>
<p>But statins have unhealthy side effects, really unhealthy side effects. If you are put on a statin by your doctor, you have to get a liver assessment test in 90 days, because statin drugs destroy the natural ability of the liver to detoxify your body. In fact the test is looking for bits of your liver floating around in your blood. Really!</p>
<p>Statins also rob your body of needed enzymes for producing muscle energy. Don&#8217;t know how they teach this stuff in medical school anymore but the heart is a muscle and our hearts needs abundant energy to beat over 100,000 times per day. Your liver helps produce the needed enzymes for muscle energy, but not &#8230; if you take statins! Is that robbing Peter to pay Paul, or what?</p>
<p>So let me pop the big question: Are statins really helping your heart? In one Doctor of Pharmacology&#8217;s professional opinion, the answer is&#8230;NO!</p>

<hr style="width: 100%;" width="100%" />
<p><strong>Are You Living The American Dream?</strong></p>
<p>There is another way. The American Dream acknowledges we have a &#8220;yearning to be free.&#8221; That includes the yearning to be free from disease. I hate to give you the bad news, but heart disease is rampant. It&#8217;s the No. 1 Killer of Americans, both men and women. A lot of people think breast cancer is the No. 1 killer of women, but the CDC reports that eight times as many women die from heart disease than breast cancer.</p>
<p>There are 1.1 million incidences of myocardial infarction (heart attacks) each year. About half, yes, five hundred thousand Americans die every year from this insidious fifth column of the enemy.</p>
<p>I dare say if terrorists killed 5,000 or 50,000 or 500,000 more Americans, we would go to war in a split second. Where&#8217;s the war being fought to save the 80 million Americans who have heart disease? With doctors prescribing statins? Well, sorry, it&#8217;s not working. Fortunately we have a better strategy and have set our goal to prevent a million heart attacks in the next few years!</p>
<p><strong>Here is the good news!</strong></p>
<p>While I realize that all of that bad news can be a bummer, there is some really good news and I have been teaching this simple principle for 6 years. You can reverse your heart disease by the foods you eat and reduce your risk of heart disease in less than 90 days taking only 15 seconds a day! Let me show you how!</p>

<h1 align="center"><span style="color: #990000;">Let&#8217;s Talk About Benefits</span></h1>
<p>Let’s get specific.</p>
<p><img src="https://allamericanomega3.com/wp-content/themes/platformpro/images_bizgrant1/Happy-Senior-Woman.jpg" alt="" align="right" border="0" /><strong><span style="color: #990000;">I can think clearly now:</span></strong> Recently, I sent over a couple of bottles of Omega-3s to a neighbor who is in her late fifties. She is a Montessori teacher, which means she works with young kids and needs a lot of energy. She was feeling depressed and thought she was suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder.</p>
<p>I asked her to take a couple of capsules a day and let me know if she felt any better within a few days. “Garey, I was laying in bed early this morning and had a math problem rolling around in my head. The answer came easily and was crystal clear. I haven’t been able to think this clearly in years! Could it be the Omega-3s?” You tell me. I get this kind of reaction all the time.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #990000;">Heart Health Benefits:</span></strong> As highlighted by my own story above, maybe the most significant and well-known benefit of taking an Omega-3 daily is the heart health benefits. If you were to rely on television commercials for your heart health education, you would think cholesterol is the enemy of heart health. Nothing could be further from the truth.</p>
<p>The Cholesterol Theory was enunciated through a heart study called the Framingham Heart Study. It is the longest running study of its kind. The early conclusions drawn more than 50 years ago associated high cholesterol with heart disease. In fact the findings were entirely premature. It would be similar today to saying if you have a television in your house you are likely to have a heart attack, because most Americans who have heart attacks have televisions in their houses.<img src="https://allamericanomega3.com/wp-content/themes/platformpro/images_bizgrant1/heart.jpg" alt="" align="right" border="0" /></p>
<p>In fact, since 2002 many more studies are indicating that it&#8217;s systemic inflammation that compounds the cardiovascular system which is the answer to the question, “Why do I have high cholesterol?” The evil contusion of pronouncing a risk factor with a test only administered by physicians led to the multi billion-dollar drug genre called statins. To be sure, statins lower cholesterol.</p>
<p>Unfortunately that can be injurious to your health. Whatever cholesterol your liver is producing is the amount that your body needs and when you artificially lower your cholesterol, you also lower your Co-enzyme Q10 levels and increase risk to your heart health manifold. Better to take a remedial course of Omega-3s and enjoy a natural way to modulate the fats in your blood with this naturally occurring super food.</p>
<p><img src="https://allamericanomega3.com/wp-content/themes/platformpro/images_bizgrant1/Senior_Man_Relaxing_After_Exercise.jpg" alt="" align="left" border="0" />The real truth about statins is that the methodology of statins was known to the Chinese thousands of years ago and if you want a natural statin, just buy red yeast rice and you can lower your cholesterol if you really think that would help. In epidemiological studies only a cholesterol level of 250 mg/dl or higher had any statistical significance of increased risk. This idea of lowering cholesterol through drugs, which caused harm to muscle tissue and liver tissue, is rather lame when the same can be accomplished by modifying the diet.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #990000;">Here’s the secret:</span></strong> Eat a lot more vegetables that contain plant sterols and take Omega-3 fish oil. It’s a lot safer too. Don&#8217;t forget to go for a walk everyday!</p>
<p><span style="color: #990000;"><strong>Inflammation Reduction</strong>:</span> As stated above, systemic inflammation is the critical key to controlling heart disease risk factors. Inflammation is caused by an acidic, highly oxidized diet. Let me translate: Junk food, fast food, trans fats, and sugar are the true enemy of humankind.</p>
<p><img src="https://allamericanomega3.com/wp-content/themes/platformpro/images_bizgrant1/Stay-flexible.jpg" alt="" align="right" border="0" />These are vitamin deficient foods that rob you of the ability to live a life of optimal health. Sure, the body is miraculous and as you have noticed if you have teenagers in the house, they can eat six meals of junk food a day and seeming remain fit! The body will make do with what you feed it, for a time. If you were to watch the movie, “Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead” a documentary by Australian born Joe Cross, the message is blatantly obvious that we are digging our graves with our teeth.</p>
<p>Balancing Omega-3s which are anti-inflammatory with Omega-6s, which are pro-inflammatory, is one of the trade secrets of fitness trainers and nutritionists. In America, the ratio averages 15.7 to 1 in favor of Omega-6 fats to Omega-3s. Of course, changing the diet is important but the way to jump-start the process is to ingest more Omega-3s!</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #990000;">Joint Health:</span></strong> Arthritic conditions are basically a reaction to the same conditions as cause problems in the cardiovascular system; A highly acidic environment that produces stiffness in the joints. If your diet is mainly composed of pro-inflammatory foods, your joints will be stiff after a night’s sleep. To keep the joints supple and able to move properly, the body’s systems are much better off dosing with an anti-inflammatory that is naturally occurring: Omega-3s.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #990000;">Brain Health and Eye Function:</span> </strong>My editor says I am running out of space so let me add just a couple of more salient points. Omega-3s are composed of a variety of long chain fatty acids. Now that is meaningless to the lay person and all it means is that the double carbon bonds are in the 3rd position. Chemically it’s important as the structure of the molecule holds all the cards.</p>
<p>So the two molecules that are the most important in the Omega-3 family are Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The DHA component happens to be the material needed for maintenance of the cells in the retina of the eye and also composes about 40% of brain cells. Now do you see why it’s an important super food that our bodies do not manufacture internally but must be ingested?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img src="https://allamericanomega3.com/wp-content/themes/platformpro/images_bizgrant1/We_The_People.jpg" alt="" align="left" border="0" />Many ophthalmologists routinely recommend highly purified Omega-3s for prevention of macular degeneration. These are not highly guarded trade secrets but where do you see this kind of information in the journalistic press?</p>
<p>Okay, you’ve had a good lesson in Omega-3s. Now I am offering you a program to optimal health.</p>
<p>Click here to <span style="font-family: verdana, geneva;"><a href="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/combo-packages/buy-3-true-omega-3s-get-2-free-vitamins/"><strong>See the Bonus Give-Away Special.</strong></a></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #990000;">Try it for 3 months</span></strong> and see if you are feeling better, more alive, thinking more clearly and absolutely able to astound your doctor with an improved blood lipid profile. I hope you take me up on my offer. It’s an easy solution to many health problems. Nip those problems in the bud.</p>
<p>The American story is one of overcoming adversity and cherishing freedom. There is a quality inside the hearts of human beings that can only be described as our yearning to be free.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Our goal is to prevent one million heart attacks in ten years. There are many ways to go about this, but we have opted to take the simplest and easiest method available to us:</p>
<p>Taking premium quality Omega 3 fish oil every day is a very simple action that can have a profound impact on human health, yes, even your health.</p>
<p>Most health care professionals agree that Omega-3s are the nutrient most critically deficient in the average American diet. Inadequate intake of Omega-3s leads to poor vascular wall health, increased systemic inflammation, and increased risk for blood clots.</p>
<p>This contributes to heart attacks, strokes and ultimately, death. Supplementation with Omega-3 fish oil has been shown to reverse many of the risk factors of heart disease and prevent heart attacks.</p>
<p>Just the tiny action of taking a couple of Omega-3 capsules on a daily basis can yield such amazing results! Why wouldn’t you want to do it?</p>
<p><img src="http://omega-3advantage.com/images/photo-images.jpg" alt="" width="751" height="181" border="0" /></p>
<p>It’s more than just heart disease at stake.</p>
<p>Other Omega-3 Benefits:</p>
<ul>
<li>Improved mood</li>
<li>Improve joint flexibility</li>
<li>Moderate Improvement to blood pressure</li>
<li>Improved brain function</li>
<li>Protection of eye health</li>
</ul>
<p>All of these benefits added together make Omega-3s ones of the most powerful super foods available today.</p>
<p>Our commitment is to make premium quality Omega 3 fish oil available in the most affordable and convenient way possible.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s your commitment to your own health?</p>

<p><em><strong>Productivity</strong></em> Defined: &#8220;Economic well-being is created in a production process. Production means, in a broad sense, all economic activities that aim directly or indirectly to satisfy human needs. The degree to which the needs are satisfied is often accepted as a measure of economic well-being. The satisfaction of needs originates from the use of the commodities which are produced. The need satisfaction increases when the quality-price-ratio of the commodities improves and more satisfaction is achieved at less cost.&#8221; Thanks Wikipedia. I should donate $5 for that. Sounds like my site, right? I hope we are meeting some of your health needs.</p>
<p>For me, 2012 is about productivity. It seems almost everyone I know has some form of ADD. Attention Deficit Disorder. The reason is simple. Due to technological advances, we are now being bombarded with more information  than ever before. You may have seen the commercial with a guy on a date with his girlfriend. He&#8217;s trying to watch football on his phone while pretending to be attentive to his girl. That sort of sums up how difficult it&#8217;s becoming to stay engaged with meaningful activity.</p>
<p>Here is my formula for staying engaged and on task. It&#8217;s not that I am always successful at this but at least I have a strategy.</p>
<p>1. No computer or email or smart phone or tablet in the first part of the morning. This is time for remembering who I am, what is important and meaningful to me. Reciting my mission statement or writing it out fresh again. I prefer writing it out fresh each day. It always comes out a little different and that&#8217;s fine! It&#8217;s an evolving mission!</p>
<p>2. Fifteen minutes of exercises and bringing my physical body to life. As we wake from sleep, the engine is just getting started. Not only to do we need to get the blood moving but we need to ratchet up the lymph system. The lymph system is another system of fluids that is really a part of the immune system. Here the toxins and dead particulates are being washed away. The blood circulatory system has a pump, the heart. The lymph system does not. It&#8217;s hydraulic. It requires movement. The minimum is 50 push ups, 50 jumping jacks, 50 air squats. the push ups can be against the wall instead of the floor. Rather than lifting all your weight, you can reduce the stress by doing these leaning push ups. Just make sure you really engage the shoulder girdle and your core. Somedays, I tackle the rebounder. It&#8217;s a mini trampoline I keep in my bedroom. If it&#8217;s good enough for astronaut training it&#8217;s good enough for me. Besides, it&#8217;s really fun.</p>
<div id="attachment_5965" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 178px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-5965 " title="projects" src="http://optimalhealthbridge.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/projects-168x300.jpg" alt="" width="168" height="300" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Every time I look up from my desk, I am reminded why I am here.</p></div>
<p>3. On my big pad in my office, I have written in large letters, the 4 main projects I am working on. I can look at them and be instantly reminded what I am doing here on this earth. Right now, the 4 projects are:</p>
<p>10,000 Bottle Partnerships (A charitable endeavor), All American Omega-3 (new product), Intrawellness (where we train and certify health coaches to use dietary supplements)  and OHB3 (the site you are reading now). These are the Big Picture projects that I need to make progress on everyday. I write these on my sheet of paper that is my Daily Record.</p>
<p>4. Next it&#8217;s Connections. Who am I waiting to hear from? This is the first column under connections. Secondly, who do I need to reach out to that will help any of my 4 projects to move forward? I write down these names in two columns.</p>
<p>5. Lastly, I write down Priorities. Jobs I can do to move my projects forward.</p>
<p>6. Only then, do I open the email accounts and scan for any messages from people I am waiting to hear back from. Leave all the superfluous stuff alone.</p>
<p>7. Staff communications: I set up parameters for the staff to work on. Usually done in 30 &#8211; 40 minutes.</p>
<p>8. This process uses a principle called block time. I set the agenda. I block the time and I do my work. If I look at Yahoo, then I am distracted. Whether it&#8217;s Kim Jong Il, or who Jim Carey is dating, <strong>nothing</strong> there on Yahoo is going to help me move my projects forward. If I randomly look through email, then I am allowing someone else to set the agenda. I know I send out a lot of email and I am trying distract you into visiting my site! So guilty as charged. However, the purpose of my email and postings are to help you solve problems. So hopefully, you are waiting to hear from me. <img src='http://optimalhealthbridge.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   If I can help, I will.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s about it. If you are going to kick butt and get stuff done, you will need to be in charge and setting the agenda. Don&#8217;t get tripped off with nonsensical musings of celebrities and the political establishment. It can be amusing, sure. Taxes certainly will go up and taxes may come down, maybe. But you can only vote in November. You can read Yahoo in a set block time, but set a timer and get away from it when time is up. Same with the TV. I used to get stuck in front of the TV in the evening. It&#8217;s entertaining and mesmerizing but not productive.  Get stuff done.</p>
<p>Be well,</p>
