TIP #07 – REMEMBER THE WHY of your eating
Your ego just eats to eat. It is always preparing you for a pending famine (that simply is
not on the horizon), and thereby thinks you need to stuff yourself whenever you get the
chance. Instead of heeding its subtle whispers, remember why your True Self eats: to
Power-Up your body to better serve others.
To this end, it can help to carry around pictures of your Loved Ones (or, if you are feeling
really “advanced”, your enemies) in your wallet or purse. Look at them often and
remember why you want to not merely survive, but thrive – that you don’t only want to
live, but that you want to LIVE WELL by helping others to live well as well.
“One should eat to live, not live to eat.” ~ Benjamin Franklin
