The Art Of Self-Discipline - Begin at the End


MIND OPTIMIZATION

​THE ART OF SELF-DISCIPLINE

Sponsored by the "Third Act " Optimizers

​

In the last Mind Optimization Course, I wrote about how, in the 1980s, I was a motivational speaker but not a very good one.

I explained that the best part of my three-year motivational speaker tour was that I got to hang out with the best in the motivational business, New York Times bestsellers, to this day.

I listened and learned and discovered that they were all teaching the same thing. The degree of our attendees' success was directly associated with their self-discipline.

EULOGY HAVES

I have noticed that what makes some of my patients/clients more self-disciplined and, therefore, more successful is that they have taken the time to know what will make them feel satisfied with their lives while they lay on their deathbeds.

I call these goals Eulogy Haves. I have also discovered they needed a Eulogy Have for each of the Four Strands of Life.

  1. Me
  2. Us
  3. Then
  4. Him

These Four Eulogy Haves are your purposes in life. In the last step, I wrote about knowing your purpose (your why); your four eulogy haves are your four whys of life.

"If you don't know where you're going, you'll have difficulty getting there.

To be disciplined, it's essential to be clear on where you want to be at the end of life—whether in health, relationships, business, or mentoring.

Answer these questions:

When it comes to my Me Strand, what will make me satisfied on my deathbed when it comes to my health?

  • e.g., To Have danced at my grandchildren's weddings

Regarding my Us Strand, what will satisfy me on my deathbed regarding my closest relationships?

  • e.g., To Have cuddled with my spouse with love daily.

Regarding my Them Strand, what will satisfy me on my deathbed regarding my career?

  • e.g., To Have loved my job to the very end.

Regarding my Him Strand, what will satisfy me on my deathbed regarding God?

  • e.g., To Have been an example of how to live life to the point I was a mentor to those who watched.

"If you want to succeed at anything, know your Four Eulogy Haves."

If you want me to coach you on optimizing your hormones, weight, health, and mind, I can do all four simultaneously; all you have to do is ask.

Oh, and it's FREE!

Hi! I'm Doc Mac.

I have practiced hormone and weight optimization for over forty-five years. I retired 10 years ago; at least, that is what I thought. When I retired, my wife and I owned and operated several medical clinics specializing in hormone and weight optimization. We discovered that as a woman enters menopause, her hormones become disrupted, causing many women to gain weight rapidly, and no matter what they do, not be able to lose it. If that has happened to you, text me at 209-345-9799. I have found that those who text me are serious about creating the body they desire. Once I receive your text, I will find a convenient time for you to speak with me. During our conversation, I will customize a gourmet weight loss menu for you, and tweak it until it works. Our menus have no caloric restrictions or frequency of meals. There is no charge! 👍 Doc

THE SLENDERNESS SERIES The Meso Proteins To Listen to This Blog - CLICK HERE A reader once asked me: “Doc, I get it. To start optimizing my weight, I eat a palm-sized serving of clean animal protein whenever I’m hungry for three days. So… to keep things interesting, I can have a protein shake for breakfast, maybe some beans here and there, and a protein bar for a snack, right?” No. No! And no!

Good morning, I’m going to keep this short. I rarely have openings in my weight optimization program. I usually work by referral only, and people aren’t thrilled when I tell them there’s a waitlist. Every client I currently work with was referred to me. But for the first time since before the pandemic, I have a few empty spots—and I don’t intend to waste them. So I’m offering a small number of women the chance to try my program risk-free. No pressure. No commitment. Just a real conversation...

LOSE THE BLOAT By Doing This “So, Doc, I feel bloated all the time. Why? And how can I get rid of it? Bottom out insulin! BLOAT Remember Alice and her kitchen island filled with grains. Every time Alice ate off her island, the carbohydrates in those grains rapidly elevated her blood sugar. In fact, many refined grains raise blood sugar even faster than table sugar. High blood sugar is toxic, so the body goes into panic mode and signals the pancreatic cells to release insulin. Insulin, like a...
