A Good Quote

You create your opportunities by asking for them.

I thought this was a good one.

A life lesson from golf about decisions.

Any golfer will tell you that the ball doesn't always go where you want it to. Today on the course, I walked up to my ball which was about 60 yards away from the hole. I made a firm decision on the type of shot I was going to play. I executed it perfectly! I mean exactly the way I planned. The only problem was, that when the ball stopped, it was still 30 yards away from the hole. Was I mad? No way! I couldn't be because I decided on a plan and followed through exactly the way I wanted to. Was it the wrong decision? It absolutely was, but next time I'm faced with a similar shot, I will know what not to do. It's the same as in life.

An old friend of mine once told me that all we can do is make our decisions and learn from them. It may be the wrong decision, but at least it will give us a starting point for next time.

One thing in both life and golf is that:

A well thought out decision that goes wrong, is better that no decision at all.

I took the day off.

I took almost the whole day off. I had a business meeting with some clients and then I went and played golf. After that I picked up my son from daycare and we came home to have supper as a family. My son has gone to bed and we will be following very shortly. A day off from dishes, laundry, and everything else that goes with it. I know there are things I could or should do, but I've been so busy lately with everything that I just don't want to do anything. It's nice actually.
I make make this a regular thing. Not an every day thing, but maybe once every 2 weeks, or once a month. No work, no house chores, no nothing unless I want to do it.

When is the last time you took time for yourself. Give it a try. I bet it can do wonders........

MaxGLX - My New Health Business

Well, it looks like I have just started another business. No wonder I can't find time to blog! I have a t-shirt business, we are moving into our new home next month and we are expecting a baby in Sept...(way too busy)....lol. I now work with the MaxGXL company. A friend of mine gave me a sample of their product. Wow, was it good. He gave my the opportunity to become part of the company and I took it (after careful research of course). I almost didn't actually but I felt that I would be missing a great opportunity and I can always use some extra money.

MaxGXL raises your body's level of Gutathione. Taken orally, Glutathione has little effect, but what MaxGXL has done is provided the precursors for glutathione production in their product.

Here's a blurb from MaxGXL website

Simply put, glutathione (GSH) is the body’s master antioxidant. It is a small
protein produced naturally in our cells when certain required elements are
present. It functions both as an antioxidant and an antitoxin and is a major
defense system against illness and aging. Our glutathione level actually
indicates our state of health and can predict longevity. Although there are more
than 60,000 published papers on the beneficial effects of glutathione
replacement, it is still largely ignored by mainstream medicine. . In the near
future the importance of glutathione will be widely recognized because it has
the ability to boost the immune system and fight off the damage of free radicals
on the cells.
Modern research has shown that individuals who have low levels
of glutathione are susceptible to chronic illness. Decreased levels of
glutathione can be brought about by continual stress upon the immune system. As
we now know, a lowered immune system can bring about illness and disease. This
is a ferocious cycle. While you need glutathione for a productive immune system,
a weakened immune system hampers the production of glutathione.
Glutathione
has been shown to slow down the aging process, detoxify and improve liver
function, strengthen the immune system, and reduce the chances of developing
cancer. Glutathione also works to help improve mental functions, increase
energy, improve concentration, permit increased exercise, and improve heart and
lung function - just to name a few.

A few days after I started taking this, I felt great. My energy level was high and constant. I had Celiac Disease when I was young and one of the effects from that is that I often tend to get irritable for no good reason. After taking MaxGXL my mood was terrific. I just felt so much better all around. Oh ya and the mid day blahs totally disappeared.

I would encourage anyone to not only check out the MaxGXL website for more info on glutathione, but do your own research on the internet and elsewhere. As it turns out, glutathione is a key ingredient to good health and I suspect we'll all be hearing a lot more about it. It is so good for your immune system that they are using it with aids patients. That has to say something.

MaxGXL has not even officially launched in Canada yet and I think it will be huge as well. If anyone is interested in getting in on the ground floor let me know. You can go to the website and look under the "opportunity" section. I'm not using this to get rich quick, Just to make some extra cash with a product I truly think is wonderful. Don't worry, I won't turn this into a MaxGXL blog. I just think people should be aware of the benefits of Glutathione.

That's all for now. Until next time.....
