"Forget past mistakes. Forget failures. Forget everything except what you’re going to do now and do it."-William Durant
We’ve talked a lot about trust. Trusting your people, systems, etc. is a critical leadership skill. Why is it so hard for some people to trust? One reason is FEAR. Remember that FEAR is the most common limiting emotion.

High serum glucose. High cholesterol. High blood pressure. This is a trifecta you definitely don’t want to have. This combination of laboratory findings is known as metabolic syndrome, a new medical term that has been in existence for less than ten years. It’s well-known that there is an epidemic of obesity in America. Two-thirds of Americans are overweight or obese. Thirty percent of American children are overweight or obese. The numbers continue to increase. The United States is also in the midst of an epidemic in diabetes. Eight percent of Americans over age 20 have diabetes – one in twelve people. Again, the numbers are increasing.

Tuning Your Instrument
When your piano is out of tune you call in the piano tuner. Likewise with your violin, cello, or bass fiddle. If you want to do more than just sing in the shower, you start taking singing lessons to learn how to sing on key.
Using your body is exactly the same. You’re a fan of "Dancing with the Stars" and think "hey, I want to do that!" So you begin ballroom dance lessons and study the mambo, tango, swing, and fox trot. Your body gains sophisticated knowledge. It learns how to create musical movement.
Your body itself needs to be functioning harmoniously for you to be able to create graceful, harmonious movement, whether in ballet, salsa, football, or basketball. Chiropractic care helps ensure harmonious functioning by balancing the interactions of nerves, bones, muscles, and joints. The access to this physiologic balance is the spinal column, the primary focus of chiropractic care.

Affordable Renters Insurance Protects Your Personal Property
If your apartment is robbed or the apartment above you has a fire, and the water used to extinguish it floods your apartment, your landlord’s policy likely won’t pay to replace any of your stuff. That’s up to you.
You have a lot of money invested in your personal property — and it’s worth protecting. Remember, as a renter, you could experience a loss due to something you have no control over.
Also, keep in mind your need for liability insurance. Say your friend’s clumsy cousin trips on your sneakers, falls down the stairs and hurts his back. Like it or not, he could sue you for that. Whether or not he wins, fighting that suit could be an expensive nightmare.
