Poor people don't exercise and forks make people fat!

If you were to google income and physical activity the overwhelming response is something along the line of “poor people don’t exercise” and they are right, however the concept is completely backwards, same as the concept that guns kill people, and forks are what make people fat. It isn’t that poor people don’t exercise it is that because people don’t exercise that they are poor. If you were to never eat you would never get fat, thus if you are to never exercise you are not going to succeed, if you do exercise you will succeed, statistics prove it! So instead of looking at it from the perspective of “those poor, poor people, or poor me poor person is doomed to be fat and die of all sorts of hanus hear diseases, economic loss etc.” lets reverse the roll, if you are poor, stop being poor by exercising, and if you are not successful become successful by exercising! There is a direct correlation to economic status and how fat and out of shape you are, so change the easier of the two to effect the one that matters most to you. 

 Let’s be real, we all WANT to be fit and have a beach body, however, we are human thus inherently lazy, and we want NOW. Physiologically what we really want is the money so that we don’t have to have the beach body and can instead pay for whatever makes up the confidence of those meat heads. Therefore, the easier to manipulate of the two variables is actually exercise rather than making yourself more economically viable to a company, so yes literally I am telling you to take the easy way out. In the basis of this concept I am not telling you, you need to go get a beach body, no actually quite opposite, simply get off of your ass and do SOMETHING, being physically active is exercise, a walk, run, bike ride daily is all. The more you exercise, the more you will make statistically, therefore, baby steps makes you a little more, giant leaps will make you giant leaps more. 

 The snowball effect, which I will get into in further detail in another post. But the more you work out the faster you will be, the more weight you will loose, the less effort you have to put in to get the same endorphin's going, healthier you will be and easier it is to exercise, therefore the easier it will be to succeed.

The Psychology of Money: A Personal Insight

Recently, I had an experience that reshaped my understanding of the psychology of money. I took over a property management job where part of my payment came in physical cash, money previously directed to someone else for this task.  Most tenants paid digitally or by check, but one unit always paid in cash. Having that "management" fee/ maintenance fee tangible, in my hand, ignited a unique perspective. It wasn’t about the amount, but the form in which it arrived.  Sure, I could take a full-time job earning in excess of $10K a month. However, that wouldn’t necessarily change my life as it would only take more of my time, the one resource I can't regenerate.  Surprisingly, the extra $1K in cash monthly had a more significant impact, not because it was a windfall, but because it made me more mindful of my earnings. The physicality of cash and the process of earning it manually introduced a sense of value and respect for my work that was somewhat abstract before.  This p...

Elk Hunt - Shakespearean style

In Meeker's vale, where mountains touch the skies, An alfalfa field before us calmly lies. Two hundred fifty elk, a sight to glean, To move unseen a task, nigh unforeseen. Our guide named Hugh, and Father by my side, We hunker down, in quiet we abide. At last I spot him—five by five, the bull, Amidst his kin, the scene is nearly full. A hundred thirty-eight yards separates, My steady aim on destiny debates. For three long minutes, in my sight he stays, But cow elk guard him, blocking aim and gaze. I dare adjust—alert, they bark and flee, My chance arrives, as if by fate's decree. The cows disperse, the bull steps forth alone, My rifle speaks; its aim and end are known. Down falls the bull, as twilight fades from view, Amidst the field and mountains' varied hue. A tale to pass, from elder unto youth, Of patience, skill, and undying truth.

Declutter - What if

  Introduction The subject of decluttering has always been a hot topic in my family, but it was a recent conversation with my mom that really got me thinking. While there's never a bad time to declutter, I've discovered that timing can make a world of difference. The Psychological Underpinnings of Attachment Growing up, I was around family members who, while not hoarders per se, had a tendency to hang onto stuff—think tools gathering dust and too many sleeping bags "just in case." Over time, I noticed this emotional attachment to things didn't just clutter the house but also our minds. The Ideal Conditions for Letting Go After years of living amidst semi-clutter, I had an epiphany: the act of letting go can be incredibly freeing. It's funny how mental barriers often make it difficult to start the decluttering process. But once you overcome them, you're rewarded with a serene sense of calm. Life Events as Natural Catalysts While events like moving homes or ...
