Live Happier? Live Healthier? Overcoming Barriers to Living a Richer Life

“I wanted a perfect ending. Now I’ve learned, the hard way, that some poems don’t rhyme; and some stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it — without knowing what’s going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity.” ~Gilda Radner

Positive thinking is only half the battle — it can only take you so far. It will take good ideas and practical steps to make things happen. You can live happier… you can live healthier, but you have to make things happen… you have to take action.

Most people want to live their best life — they want a happier, healthier and richer, more meaningful life. However, there are major barriers to doing this. Most people don’t have enough time, money or energy to make changes and start living a better lifestyle.

In today’s society, most people are stressed out, time-starved and budget-challenged. It can be overwhelming to even think about making changes in their life.

Just learning about new ways of eating healthy or reducing stress will not effectively lead to long-term lifestyle changes. The new knowledge needs to be practiced repeatedly until it becomes a habit.
