It’s nine thirty at night and you have followed your new diet plan perfectly to a tee all day. A pizza advertisement comes on the commercial break of your favorite show and you notice it is close to your next mealtime.
Up to the kitchen you go to eat your next meal. When in the fridge pulling out your nicelyprepared diet plan meal, you notice some left over Fettuccini Alfredo your wife or roommate brought home. Sure looks good you think as you catch a little bit of saliva about to drip on your shirt!

“Just a little taste won’t hurt my diet plan,” you justify…

“ I’ve stuck to my diet plan all day……”

A little taste and before you know it you tell yourself the extra carbs and calories will be a good boost to your workout tomorrow!

An hour later your gut is stretching and Indigestion plagues you from cheating on your diet plan!!

“I should have stuck to my diet plan!” is going through your head as you lay down to have nightmares of a fat ass! “Tomorrow I’ll stick to my diet plan “, you chant in your head!But you fall from your diet plan only a day or two later!

The occasional stray from your diet plan can really add up!And billboards,tv’s, radios and people are everywhere pushing fast foods and junk to sabotage your diet plan!

Here are five diet plan saving tips to arm yourself against the onslaught of the Cheating War!

Diet Plan Tip #1 – Eat Slowly – Take your time when you sit down to eat.

The chances you will stuff yourself or overeat diminish and you will reach the point of satiety much more quickly if you eat slowly!

The more you are satisfied with what you have eaten the less likely you will continue to think of food. That chocolate Black Forest cake won’t be as tempting either!

Diet Plan Tip #2 – Have Delicious Meals That Fit Your Meal Plan Prepared Ahead Of Time.

Having meals prepared ahead of time makes it convenient to eat according to a plan and on schedule.

You can make it more convenient to stick to your diet plan than it is to eat that bag of candy by having your diet plan meals prepared and available when it is time to eat– and when you gethungry.

Diet Plan Tip #3 – Get Used To Eating For Your Purpose Instead Of For Your Taste Buds.

Satisfying your taste buds when you get the urge to gorge down a Big Mac will never develop a healthy, lean, muscular physique! Keep in mind you are eating to develop a lean, healthy muscular physique every time you open your mouth! The temporary taste satisfaction of a jelly-filled donut will be gone real fast but the empty calories you just devoured can defeat a whole day’s worth of bodybuilding effort!

Diet Plan Tip #4 – Be creative with your cooking to make sticking to your diet enjoyable.

Ideally, with proper preparation and some reciperesearch you can create delicious mouth watering meals that meet your diet plan criteria. Learn to cook. Employ spices from other parts of the world. India and China are twocountries with interesting choices to really spice up your diet plan. When you don’t have to force feed yourself with your nose plugged the chances are much higher you can stick to your diet plan more easily!

Diet Plan Tip #5 – Drink Water.

Drinking water between meals can help to reduce your hunger pains temporarily by giving a sense of fullness. For those of you that sabotage your diet plan munching here and there,keeping a water bottle with you wherever you go can really help.Just sip away when its oral satisfaction rather than hunger driving you.

Lesson #5

Wow! You must be on fire by now burning and churning up those calories on your way to your ideal weight. I know that taking steps to better your life is not always easy. It takes courage to do this. Sometimes it’s easier just to keep in the mind set of surviving and do what you’ve always done. When you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always gotten. Is this what you desire? Or do you want something different, something that is absolutely amazing?

You know what I believe? I believe you’re ready to burst out of your shell and manifest everything that is yours by Divine right. You are so ready to soar above the clouds that nothing can stop you from achieving success. God has these plans for you, and he wants you thriving, not surviving. You’re now recognizing what you need to do in order to obey His commands. To thrive means paying attention to yourself so that you can be all that God intends for you. If sometimes you feel that you’re not living God’s plan, He forgives you even when you’re not connected to Him. Now, if God can forgive you, then let’s work on forgiving yourself.

I want you to take out a mirror and look into it while reading the following statements. If you don’t have a hand-held one, then go stand by a mirror.

________________ (Fill in your name), I forgive you for _____________________ (fill in the blank with whatever it is you need to forgive yourself for). I know that you were doing the best you could.

________________ , I forgive you for _________________________.

________________ , I forgive you for _________________________.

________________ , I forgive you for _________________________.

There might be several things you want to forgive yourself for or you might just have a few things. The important thing is to focus on forgiving so you can release it.

Last week I worked with a client who had an amazing break through. Her core issue was not forgiving herself for making mistakes in her second marriage, which led to divorce. She has been very hard on herself for seven years because she thought she asked all the right questions and should have known better. I did chakra work with her and the message was loud and clear…..FORGIVE YOURSELF. (Incidentally, I will explain chakra work in another lesson).

Now, while looking into the mirror, take your right hand and form a fist and rub over the heart and repeat out loud:

Even though I have had the issue of not forgiving myself, I deeply love and accept myself and this issue is healed. Divine Love floods my whole body with light and every cell is filled with love. Say this ten times.

In addition, while the mirror is in front you, tell yourself, “You look marvelous, baby!!”

How do you feel? Stupendous! Awesome! Supercalifragilisticexpealidocious! (Okay, I am a fan of Mary Poppins and I love that word).

Practice! Practice! Practice! (Affirmations, Rapid Eye, Emotional Freedom Techniques, gratitude, forgiveness). The more you do it, the more it just becomes natural to bring in all the positives and surround yourself with them. Your ideal weight is already there. Believe it! Know it! Expect it!

I appreciate you and your efforts and am so grateful that you’re part of my life. I am sending you pink light energy. Hug yourself with this light and be surrounded in love.

The success that comes to any business is a direct result of finding people that want to buy from you. If this sounds simple, it’s just the “Know your customer” rule and nothing more.

Finding your ideal customer may take a little research but the fact is the foundation of your success is going to be built off of a research process that defines and locates your potential customers. If you’re running an online business it’s also going to help them find you on search engines like Google Yahoo, and Bing. Defining your customer will in turn define your ultimate niche, the sales copy you use, and how you market your wares.

Staying with the online business example, let’s use weight loss as the generic topic for where you’ll be starting an online business. Within that topic there exists a wide variety of sub and micro niches where plenty of demand exists without the heavy competition that typically comes with the broader niches in weight loss like “lose weight”.

Having a sense of urgency is a great way to find people who are ready to buy. It seems that there is always a theme in weight loss that carries some kind of urgency that will make people feel that they need to buy a product now, including:

Lose that weight before bikini season
Lose the holiday weight
Lose weight before a wedding/reunion/vacation

There is also an element of vanity in this niche so appealing to that can enhance your sales copy as well. By knowing your client you could select keywords that serve as hot button issues which will attract them to your product. If you, for example, were to focus on losing some weight before going on spring break you could set your marketing to push the buttons of exactly those people that are heading to a tropical locale for their vacation. Does that define everyone that wants to lose weight? It absolutely doesn’t, but it narrows your message to the point where your message can be seen by a motivated audience.

With these definitions, you could further refine your ideal client and their hot button issues so that you can position your product as the perfect solution for their problem. You’re not going to sell a weight loss product to everyone, but if you don’t know who your customer is, chances are you’ll be marketing to the wrong audience. Starting any business with a clear definition of your ideal customer will allow you to focus only on them. The reward is that you’ll make more money and make it faster.
