Happiness & gratitude: what would your life be like if.....

Please ask yourself this question:


What precious gift would I miss if it was taken / went missing from my life? Your health, your eyesight, your mobility, your freedom to choose?


If the answer hits you like a tonne of bricks..please value it now and be very grateful for it as you go along on your life journey.


Getting better not older,

PS Just heading off to have dinner with great friends who I have not seen for years..that is something I would miss.......my friends and family.

Staggering thought about you & how amazing YOU really are

Please STOP for a nano-second.


Have you ever? ........I mean really really ever stopped and realised how amazing & unique you are?


With 7 billion of us on the planet, not one of us is identical..even identical twins have subtle differences.


I have just finished watching a TED video on cancer.


Each of us has somewhere between 10 - 70 trillion cells in our body.........that is a lot of cells [70, 000, 000, 000, 000 cells x 7 000, 000, 000 people which  all start from a fertilised egg]...........boggles my mind...and fried my calculator.


Gratitude: 


I met a great graphic designer who managed to understand my mind maps today..for that I am very grateful....now to develop my 'brand'....including adding a new word which adds greater meaning to me business name..stay tuned.


I hope your journey today has continued to be good.


Getting better every day, not older!


PS I will be posting tomorrow about change & the various stages of it we all find ourselves in as we progress through life...change can cause eustress or distress.. fascinating.

Hat’s off to our overworked doctors


Details of an Australian Medical Association report released recently revealed the incredible hours some doctors are working in our hospitals. A 7-day study in August 2011 showed the maximum hours worked per week increased from 113 in 2006 to 120 in 2011 and the longest recorded shift went for 43 hours!


Our doctors are wonderful but still humans and it is scary to think of the effects such long hours are on them not to mention the patients. 


My real concern is that is it ever going to be any different? 


With the expected increase in lifestyle diseases to impact all sectors of society (like type II diabetes showing up in younger people, increasing obesity rates, the ongoing effects of cancer and heart disease).


You all know my advice: 


Invest in your health every day…fresh foods, plenty of water and 30 minutes of moderate exercise..


I reckon it is a good return on investment..do a bit every day & I get to be fit and healthy when I am 100 years young. Good deal.


Invitation still stands:


What is on your mind? Give me a yell…or tell me on a scale of 1-10 how you are feeling today..love to hear from people who want to be part of the ‘healthy vibrant tribe’.


Feedback welcomed: please share your thoughts with us. I would love to be part of your ‘life journey’.


Cheers Rossco
