About this title

From the Author:

Energy! If you've got lots of it you're laughing, but if you don't you know how difficult it is to generate. It's a paradox for the working tired: if you're low on energy you need to expend energy to get energy. How can you do that if you have no energy? Really good question.
I guess it's because so many of us struggle to find and keep good health and endless energy that everyone and his dog have a theory for how you can get it faster and with less effort. Quick fix? I say buyer beware!

Your healthy living plan should not be viewed as a race but as an on-going, lifelong and even enjoyable journey. It isn't always easy...but I will tell you that it is possible. So here we go.
Through more than two decades as a motivational speaker, personal trainer, life coach, author and health educator I've observed a lot about human nature and our health practices. Here's what I know today.

The lack of energy you're experiencing right now is less about not knowing what to do and more about not knowing how to do it. You could get buried beneath the available books and resources that will tell you exactly what to do. You've got the information, so why aren't you doing something about it? The challenge you're facing as far as I can see is how to get started and stay with it when the busy-life meter is at eleven and the energy gauge is at zero. Yup, the energy paradox: If you're low on energy, you need to expend energy to get energy, and you have no energy.

Maybe it's time for a different approach. I'm sure you're not new to the idea of small steps. A lot of self-help professionals support the idea in theory, but few create an entire methodology around it. Small steps aren't sexy enough. They won't bring results quickly enough. But neither will sitting on the sofa, and that's likely where you end up every time your busy life closes in on another of the sexy, results-promising, go-big-or-go-home methods you've tried. And oh how you've tried.

I wrote this book for you, open-minded and hopeful as you are. An entire health and energy-generating methodology based on small, unsexy steps. Small steps to an energetic life. Believe it. Harness a bit of the self-discipline you know you possess and decide that this time will be different. Let's figure it out together - one small step at a time, one page at a time, because that's all it takes.
