Most people have the necessary knowledge to lose weight-that is they know that in order to lose weight you have to exercise and cut your intake of fats. However, despite this widespread knowledge, the vast majority of people who attempt to lose weight are unsuccessful. Why? Because they lack the emotional discipline.” PeopleKnowsOrderLosesAbilityDecisionEmotionCuttingEmotionalDisciplineExerciseWeightMajorityInvestmentFatsDespiteAnalogiesDietingLose WeightUnsuccessful Author:Victor Sperandeo
“For those of you who are seeing the spiritual life, I recommend these four daily practices: Spend time alone each day in receptive silence. When angry, or afflicted with any negative emotion, take time to be alone with God. (Do not talk with people who are angry; they are irrational and cannot be reasoned with. If you or they are angry, it is best to leave and pray.) Visualize God's light each day and send it to someone who needs help. Exercise the body, it is the temple of the soul.” PeopleIfsNeedsSoulHelpingBodyLightSpiritualEmotionSilencePracticeFourSeeingPrayingExerciseNegativeAngryEach DayTemplesSpiritual LifeTake TimeIrrationalEnd TimesSpend TimeMe AloneReceptiveAlone TimeNegative EmotionsAlone With God Author:Peace Pilgrim
