Practice Forgiveness 
Forgiving someone who has wronged you is actually a selfish act rather than a selfless one. Letting go of the 
hostility and hatred that you may have allowed to bottle up inside you is actually something you do for yourself 
rather than for the benefit of the other person. As I teach in my life – coaching programs, when you bear a 
grudge against someone, it is almost as if you carry that person around on your back with you. He drains you of 
your energy, enthusiasm and peace of mind. But the moment you forgive him, you get him off your back and 
you can move on with the rest of the world. 
Mark Twain wrote that, “Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heal that crushed it.” 
Forgiveness is a great act of spirit and personal courage. It is also one of the best ways to elevate the quality of 
your life. I have discovered that every minute you devote to thinking about someone who has wronged you is a 
minute you have stolen from a much worthier pursuit: attracting those people who will help you.

Drink Fresh Fruit Juice
The foods you consume affects your moods as well as the clarity of your thinking. This is why the ancient sages 
ate only light foods. They knew that anything more would disturb the perfectly peaceful minds they had worked 
so hard to cultivate and disrupt their meditations on the true meaning of life. 
If you owned an expensive Formula One race car, you wouldn’t think of fueling it with anything less 
than premium – grade gas. Anything else would reduce its performance. So why would you put anything less 
than the best foods into your body, which is an even more valuable performance vehicle? Eating the wrong 
foods, in large quantities, will reduce your energy level, affect your health and prevent your mind from serving 
you to its fullest capacity. Realizing that for every greasy lunch you have, you will suffer a corresponding 
reduction in your level of motivation and effectiveness is the first step to developing more disciplined eating 
habits. 
One of the best strategies I can share with you to boost both your energy level and your mood is to get 
into the daily habit of drinking fresh fruit juice. On the counter of our kitchen at home sits one of my prized 
possessions, one that has added years to my life and life to my years: my juice machine. Investing in a juicer 
and discovering the life – giving value of fresh juice is a smart move. The juices you can make taste great and I 
cannot begin to describe how wonderful you will feel once you start drinking a glass of strawberry – apple or 
orange – grape juice every morning before you leave for work. The best book I have found on the subject of 
juicing is The Juice man’s Power of Juicing by Jay Kordich. The recipes Kordich shares in this book are worth 
the price alone.
