28 Jul “Lifebook Changed How I Think About My Life”
Written by Lifebook Member Noel Villareal
My Lifebook experience has changed how I think about my life.
While I have had some success in my life, going through the Lifebook process helped me realize that I can have so much more. Life can be better. I can dream bigger. I can get rid of bad habits and form good habits that will help me become the best me.
When I arrived in Chicago for my Lifebook week, I had been drinking diet sodas for many years. I was drinking around 3 diet sodas a day. My wife would periodically suggest that there the chemicals in the diet soda were not good for me, but she knew that the change had to come from me.
At the Lifebook week in Chicago, no soda was available. I decided that I would try to use that opportunity to stop drinking soda. I tried the Yogi Tangerine energy tea and the Chai tea which were both pretty good. When I went home and started craving a soda, I would remind myself that I’m that guy that doesn’t drink soda.
I was choosing who I wanted to be, not falling back into my old habit.
I have not had a soda since my Lifebook week. I drink tea (no sugar) instead. I’ve also kept my commitment to go to the gym on a consistent basis 6 days a week. Its just what I do now. I also reached first monthly weight-loss goal and will continue until I reach my target optimal weight.
I have a plan to make more money, change my career, have a better quality of life, be the best husband and father, and live a 12 category smart life.
I am grateful for the great life I have right now. But I can’t wait for the even better life that I will achieve. I want to thank Dave Stech and Chef Denny for inviting my wife and I to Lifebook. I also want to thank Sandra for a great Lifebook Session and Bootcamp, its been a wonderful experience. I can’t say thank you enough to Jon and Missy for sharing their home and sharing the Lifebook experience with us. I hope that all the Lifebook Members have the best life possible.
