WOW!!

That is the first word that comes to mind when I think back to yesterday afternoon and the types off food we had!

Plenty of fun was had from standing on Swiss-balls to playing handball at an intense level!! Where a king among kings was crowned, champion! The final death rally between Belinda and I was crazy! Special mention to our good friend Dean the 8 year old for constantly putting his body on the line trying to save some skilful shots! haha

I know what you're thinking. SHOW ME THE FOOD!

What they used:

2kg Ground Beef
Coconut Oil for cooking
1 Onion
2 zucchini
2 carrots
8 gloves of crushed Garlic
12 teaspoons of curry powder

Pepper and salt to taste


How'd they do it?

Heat oil in pan
put meat of choice in mixing bowl
great onion, zucchini, carrot, and garlic and combine
add curry paste, ground cinnamon, salt and pepper

Success is achievable for us all :)




Do you want to be successful at things in life?

Then can you honestly say to yourself and others that you are doing these 8 things:

1. Passion
Do you have passion for what you want. Passion is the number one DRIVER for all things achieved in life. If the passion is high for what you're doing then success can be draw from that because your passion is important. Harness it and show it to others, daily!

2. Work
Do you work hard at what you want? Is it on your TOP LIST OF THINGS TO DO TODAY! If not, then are you really working towards anything at all?

3. Focus.
Where do you spend most of your focus? Are you energising the CORRECT things in your life and aiming enough focus at these things to get what you want?

4.Persistence.
Are you persistent with what you want? Someone once told me " success is just getting up one more time then you have been knocked down" I like this quote a lot. Persistence will always be there if passion and focus is STRONG!

5. Ideas
Ideas are ALWAYS around us. Ideas on EVERYTHING. Look around your surrounding and think what do people need/want. How can I make this simple for everyone. How can i do the most good? Ideas support your success!

6. Good
Are you good at something? Get good at something and follow to success! Practice won't make perfect. Only perfect practice will make perfect.

7.Push
Where is your push? Is it external, is it Internal? Do you have a support network pushing you to be the best you can be? Push yourself, physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.

8. Serve
Serve others something of value. Give them value where you see it is needed. Don't always expect something in return. You being able to express your ability to serve another person in life should be reward enough.


Share stories of success and experiences to comments. Who do you look up to for your motivation to be the best you can be in all of lifes areas? Health, career, love etc


In health and happiness,

Shane Richards
