Scott Schwab:
Our quote for today comes from a well known and influential character named Aristotle. He is widely known and wrote, just about on every subject.
"To live happily is an inward power of the soul."
Aristotle
I liked this because I believe that happiness is not a place. We should not look for "only if" statements. When living on statements that surround only if, you will find yourself fighting for a fictitious place in life that even when achieved, your ideas and thoughts about the place have changed. So you will continue to search for happiness until the day you die. Much like a ship captain, continues to search for the treasure that he knows is just beyond the horizon. Happiness is created within! It is worked for and obtained on principles of consistency, habit, and attitude. How we define it varies between every person on the Earth. Perhaps this is why only you can know when you are truly happy. There are a lot of help mates and things to assist you, but you must define it and go after it so aggressively, that you will not be turned away.
I also would like to introduce a friend of mine who will be posting tomorrow. I have known Jed since about the 5th grade. In High School he was very athletic, but in my mind slim and in shape. He had the body that many of us had, when we can eat whatever we want and remain in shape. He has since changed his perspective on everything in health and is probably the most healthy person that I know. He competes in fitness competitions, models, and is a dedicated father and husband. He is dedicated to a life of health and I know you will enjoy his words for tomorrow's post. Please welcome Jed Leishman as our guest poster for Monday the 11th
