Are you living to “be healthy” or Living Healthy “to Live” on purpose

Written by John Allen Mollenhauer "JAM" on September 13, 2007 – 9:23 am

You know I have to say that this mindset shift was the best things that every happened to me.

For some time, I was living to be healthy and it cost me a great deal of success. I was all wrapped up in food and fitness and missed the most important element of both health and success, which is managing your energy to look, feel and perform better, and achieve your real goals. It wasn’t until I made this distinction in my mind that I was able to revolutionize my lifestyle and really focus on success.

The distinction between living to be healthy (how I was thinking when I was exhausted and overweight) and living healthy "to live" on purpose is powerful. What is so powerful about the difference between these too ideas is that in both cases your value for healthy living is in place, but ironically, when you’re not focused on being healthy, and you decide to live healthy to live your purpose and achieve the bigger goals you have in life, you will live healthier than ever before and it will go way beyond food and fitness. 

It’s a phenomenon, and it’s true. And I’m suggesting that it’s going to work for you too. It’s the reason why the entire Performance Lifestyle idea even exists so that you can achieve your goals powered by the healthiest, best performing, most successfully energized and productive body you can imagine.

"Just after I met you, I found my event. It’s an event “bigger than my waist size” and I started lifting with a new vision and intensity that I haven’t done for 20 years. I am eating to live instead of living to eat.

“Every great performer is always training for their next event.” Wow. That was powerful John. I wished there was a way to convey to you how grateful I am that I had that 1 minute opportunity to line up knee to knee with JAM. There are no strings attached to this expression John. I have just not stopped thinking about it since Toronto… and I thought is was time you knew the impact you had on my life… in less than one minute.

I feel I owe you. I really do. One day, I hope to return the gift of clarity.

Looking Forward," Joseph Stith Executive Director of Learning Innovation ENGAGE THOUGHTWARE LLC

Doesn’t it sound strange to be trying to achieve your goals in an overwhelmed and exhausted body, maybe overweight? Of course it does. Performance requires that you maintain yourself in top condition, just like athletes.

It takes just as much energy, endurance, and stamina to be a super mom, a parent, a business owner, heck a student these days as it does to be an athlete. We are all athletes.

Sports athletes just have a stronger purpose than most people do, they always have an event to prepare for and target, big goals that they are striving for and more. That’s why they live Performance Lifestyle’s, the healthiest and most successful lifestyles in the world and here’s the big irony -

They don’t wake up and "live healthy" at all! They just do what works, and I can tell you, mismanaging your energy, eating poorly, being inactive, living with a fuzzy purpose and unclear goals, not to mention making goals out of things that aren’t even real goals, that end up being distractions from your real purpose in life does not work.

Over the next two weeks I’ve got a series of events planned with some top experts in Performance Lifestyle, who are also helping to revolutionize the way we think and live today.

  • Tonight September 13, I’m talking with Rob Poulos of Zero to Hero Fitness, a warrior for better lifestyle.  
  • Tuesday, September 18th I’m talking with Scott Colby of SC Fitness and My Ultimate Fitness Mindset
  • And on September 19th, I’ll be talking with Dr Brad Swift, Author of Life on Purpose -Brad Swift, the author of Life On Purpose: Six Passages to an Inspired Life

Performance lifestyle is not only about transforming your lifestyle for better results in your body, life and business; it is to live our lives on purpose. That’s why lifestyle training and coaching is so valuable, because it’s about your success.

Keep your calendars open for one night per week starting the end of September!

“Healthy Lifestyle” or Healthiest, Best Performing Lifestyle?

Written by John Allen Mollenhauer "JAM" on September 7, 2007 – 8:58 am

Did you know, if in your lifestyle today, you are simply sleeping a "little" longer, eating a "little" better and exercising a "little" more, you can still, and likely will, suffer from the overweight condition and low energy?

Its easy, given the high performance demands we all face.

I learned this first hand in the 1990’s when I was living a "relatively healthy" lifestyle that was probably more conscientious than 90% of the population (which is saying allot). My schedule was so intense, despite eating less of the bad foods, eating more of the good foods, and exercising a great deal. I still got fat, fatigued and overweight… and couldn’t perform at the level I wanted and needed to.

In retrospect, I was only scratching the surface when it came to unleashing the full potential of my lifestyle to promote my health, and success, in life and business. 

This is true for a ot of people, I know, I train and coach at least 50 clients a month who make this very clear to me. My clients are all  motivated, smart, driven people and who are living a great life in so many ways, but are suffering the same fate so many others are - overwhelm, exhaustion, for some fatigue and the overweight condition and the answers on the market, just aren’t solving the real problem.

It’s not weight, it’s energy!

Personal Energy Management and Performance is where your focus needs to be… Whether we’re talking energy, food or fitness, focus or success, the one common denominator all these aspects of our lives have in common is how we manage our energy…

In the upcoming Performance Lifestyle Training, you’re going to learn how to manage your energy like a pro to look, feel and perform better, and achieve your goals at any age(c).

The Pro Energy Strategies you’ll learn are the core of Performance Lifestyle Training, the worlds first and only fully integrated system to optimize your lifestyle for better health AND Success

When I started living a Performance Lifestyle, not just a healthier lifestyle, it was incredible. Focused on Performance, I couldn’t make better lifestyle choices fast enough to keep up with my drive for greater health and success. No longer suffering from low energy, because of my new personal energy management skills, I started to perform better than ever before and it showed in my levels of success and quality of life. Yeah I’ve had big hiccups but nonetheless today, my performance lifestyle is in full gear.

This is incredibly powerful and there is no end in sight to how well you can optimize your lifestyle - the greatest untapped source of power for personal and professional success.

Here’s what a recent client of the Performance Lifestyle Training said…

This training changed my mind - and redirected my focus  - in such a substantial way, it’s hard to encapsulate my experience !

Foremost, to help me see how energy - its management and restoration - enables me to live my purpose and vision, WOW!

Before I began I was beyond exhausted.  I had little energy for anything but an increasingly sedentary work and lifestyle. 

Today I have more energy than I’ve had in years - and I get it doing things that are so simple, and so easy to integrate into daily living it blows my mind. 

This training did not disappoint me.  It blew my mind, and then it gave me back my life.

It’s been amongst the very best investments I’ve ever made.  And life will never be the same again, nor will I.

In anticipation of great things, Lissa Bergen Boles

I’ll be releasing details on the next training shortly… emoticon
