To achieve tremendous success in life and accomplish your self improvement goals there are three areas that need to be addressed: diet, exercise, and attitude. Working on any one of these can significantly improve the quality of your life, but when you combine all three you will achieve much greater success much more quickly.

Each of these aspects of personal development reinforces and magnifies the others. The combined force is like strapping a rocket engine to your efforts at achieving personal success.

Attitude is of primary importance. Without that you have no motivation to start a self improvement program, no desire to continue eating right and exercising in order to make your life better, and no confidence to reach for your goals. Working on improving your attitude should be uppermost in your mind.

How hard should you work on self improvement? More is better, but don't let it overwhelm you and cause you stress. Do what you can today. Try to do better tomorrow. Take some simple steps and build on them. Soon you'll find that you've covered a great distance, and that taking larger strides is easy. Above all, enjoy the journey.

I know there are many other aspects of your life that you want to improve. Commonly, people want greater financial success or they want to find that special someone with whom they can have a passionate relationship. These are excellent goals, and I don't want you to lose focus on them. But the fact of the matter is, they will be much easier to achieve when you improve those three fundamental areas of your life.

Today is the day to begin. Start your personal growth program with confidence and expectation. Here's to your success!

Discarding Your Body

Marshall Brain, the founder of the brilliant site How Stuff Works and the excellent rationalist sites God Is Imaginary and Why Won’t God Heal Amputees? has an essay entitled The Day You Discard Your Body available on his website.

One may quibble with his particular technological vision, but the premise is sound. Personally, I think we’ll discard our meat bodies for more powerful and durable synthetic ones. Still, it’s a good read, and I highly recommend it.

If we want to survive, we have to get off this rock. That’s a fact of our evolution. We are a planetary society. We need to become a solar society, then a galactic one. Eventually we need to spread out across the universe, and even across multiple universes.

We are now situated in the middle of a calm period between catastrophic events. A large asteroid or comet strike is certain to happen eventually. The Yellowstone supervolcano will erupt sooner or later. Our long term survival depends on colonizing new worlds.

In order to meet the future we will have to evolve. Fortunately, our intelligence means that we can direct that evolution with technology. We will merge with technology, exchanging our meat machines for more durable synthetic ones. Uploading and copying our consciousnesses into new vehicles. Becoming digital.

We will evolve and meet the challenge, or we will die. That’s evolution. Now is the time for us to step up or fall.

We are still babes, but soon we will have to leave the nest. Mother Earth did a great job of getting us this far. Let’s face the fact that we will have to leave home and mother soon and strike out on our own.

Human beings are on the verge of an evolutionary leap, but this time there is a major difference from the past. We have evolved to the point where we can direct our own evolution.

This is transhumanism, preparing for a posthuman future through technology.

Genetic enhancement, cyborgism, interfacing with a neural net, millions of nanobots that seek out and destroy any cancer cell or virus and keep any internal systems in prime working order, functional immortality.

The singularity is fast approaching. Our knowledge is growing exponentially in so many related fields, each new discovery pushing the boundaries farther and farther. The next 20 years will see an explosion of technologic advancement greater than the previous 200, and the decade after that will be even greater.

Stay tuned. It’s going to be fun.

If you want to get your body in shape and be a lean, mean, fat burning machine you've got to crank up your metabolism. Doing exercises to lose body fat will only get you so far. If your metabolism is low, you have to do a lot of exercising to lose just a little fat. When your metabolism is kicked into high gear, you'll lose more fat walking to the mailbox than a person with low metabolism will lose riding an exercise bike for ten minutes.

Warp Speed Fat Loss will show you how to crank your metabolism up to eleven. This program was designed by a fitness expert and refined in his gym to provide you with only the most focused and effective exercises for you to burn off that fat and get into shape fast. You can manipulate your body chemistry scientifically and with precision to get rid of the fat quckly and easily.

You don't have to exercise all day and night to lose weight, not if you learn how to lose fat fast. It's all about working out smarter, not harder. It's crazy spending hours and hours of strenuous effort when you can do more in minutes with Warp Speed Fat Loss. Achieve more in less time with less effort. Get lean and fit, with rock hard abs and sculpted legs, and do it easily while others struggle and struggle for pitiful results. No more of that for you! Not when you've got Warp Speed Fat Loss.

Warp Speed Fat Loss isn't just for getting in great shape, though. You'll be able to stay in fantastic shape with much less effort because you'll be working out smarter, not harder, and your cranked up metabolism is the key.

Not only is this not a starvation diet, but you'll have to eat more, just to feed that metabolism. Can you handle that? Yeah, it's tough, but somebody's got to do it. "Another helping? Oh yes. I'm burning fat."

Most diets and exercises don't do the job because they don't address the single most important factor in losing weight and keeping it off: metabolism. In fact, most fad diets lower your metabolism so, sure, you lose some weight now... but you put it all back on real quick when the diet's done. Stay away from that craziness. Learn the best way to lose fat and keep it off for good with Warp Speed Fat Loss.
