pursue your own goals, follow the directions and exercises in my ‘how-to’ book “Do What You Can! Simple Steps—Extraordinary Results”

But there is one essential step needed in the pursuit of any worthy goal that must be stressed above all others. Simply, start by Eating Better!

What do we mean by Better!

Several years ago, I adopted the word “Better!” as my personal and business brand. In short, my clients and I are working to be:

Better tomorrow than today;

Better next week than this week;

Better next year than this year.

And so on into the future.

Better! Results come from Better! Choices at dozens of daily decision moments, followed immediately by Better! Actions in support of those choices.

But why should “Eating Better!” be number one on our action list? Great question, and here’s exactly why this idea is so important.

Daily pursuit of important life and business goals is both a mental and physical undertaking. Attention to the mental aspects of brainstorming, planning, writing and measuring consumes most of our limited time. As a result, busy motivated people like us are often reaching for whatever food is available at the moment hunger strikes. We’re so focused on our work, our deadlines, our results and the legitimate needs of others that we fail to take adequate care of ourselves.

For example, are we getting enough sleep to allow our brain and body to recharge after a taxing day? Are we drinking enough water to keep our brain and body operating properly? And just as important, are we providing our brain and our body the healthy food needed to sustain the long campaign pursuit of worthy goals often requires?

If you’re like me, you probably don’t need a life-coach to lay out a plan for getting one more hour of sleep each night or for doubling your daily water intake. But we may be in the same boat as we consider whether we have the knowledge, skills and discipline to Eat Better! every day.

So here are two specific suggestions to nudge you in the right direction right now.

With these two resources and many others that are easily available to all of us with just a few clicks of our keyboards, we can arm ourselves with the information we need to make Better! Choices in what we eat.

Result? More energy, less toxicity, better fuel for our body and brains.

What tools do you use to make your food choices? Let me know.
