As long as it takes
here is a thought I received from a friend in real estate and wanted to pass it on because it relates to all of us in any business...
What if you knew that you could reach your goal by taking
just one more step? Would you take that step?
At some point in the process of achievement, the final
hurdle is reached. What a shame it would be to stop just
short of that one last obstacle.
Achievement does not require extraordinary ability.
Achievement comes from ordinary abilities applied with
extraordinary persistence.
You already know you can do what it takes. To reach any
goal, simply do what it takes for as long as it takes.
It's really not that difficult to take just one step, to do
just a single task, to make one bit of progress. And if you
can do it once, you can do it again, and again, and again
without much problem.
Keep the faith and keep up the effort. Your persistence will
get you there.
Cheers and Hugs!

Jim and Sherri Wear-who they are and why you want to know them!
I had the opportunity to meet the founders of Lifemax this past weekend! What a dynamo pair they are, and probably one of the most humble couples I have met. First I met them at a BBQ at John Tuckers home in Encino which is just amazing. There was only about 30 people there but it was great to see them in a social setting, they are as normal as any of us an it is hard to believe that such a young couple could start up this company! Jim and Sherri come from a real estate background so we ofcouse instantly hit it off. Jim is super funny, charming and willing to share his knowledge of what he knows about MILA and his and Sherri vision. Sherri could not be any cuter and any more genuine.
The next day I got meet with them privately. Since our meeting was in LA and I was headed to the beach I had my 19 yr old daughter and two year old with me. We met in the lobby of their hotel as my 19 yr old chased my 2 year old around and kept interrupting us every 10 minutes, Jim and Sherri were not even phrased by it, in fact Sherri could not get enough of my little boy as she was missing hers! As I sat with them their mission is crystal clear, the want to feed the world with this product. We can literally change the health and wealth of the world through MILA. MILA contains the highest levels of Omega 3 fatty acids. It is classified by the FDA as a whole raw food. It is inexpensive, a little over a $1 a day to take, easy to ship, tasteless and orderless so no need to change any habits or behaviors on how you take it. It is really a no brainer to me. I mix it in almost everything I eat and/or cook it is that easy.
To learn more about Jim and Sherri, go to www.youtube.com and type in Lifemax, several of their videos will pop up.

Great testimonial from Dr. Mitch Davis on MILA
Testimonial from Dr. Mitch Davis
On a personal note, Mila has made significant improvements in my health. I have genetic hypertriglyceridemia, and take 3 medications to control my lipids. However, the best reading for my LDL (”bad cholesterol”) was 120. After 6 weeks using Mila, my LDL was 80, and my HDL (”good cholesterol”) rose from 50 to 65. Both of these are cardioprotective. Despite supplementing with Co-Q 10 while I take statins, I was still having problems with my memory and concentration. Within a short period after starting Mila, I noticed a marked improvement in my mental capacity. In addition, I have an improvement in my overall energy level.
Patient testimonials:
I have had many of my patients report improvement in their acid reflux symptoms, and several patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome have improved while taking Mila. I find Mila useful to improve constipation, and am using Mila for my patients with fatty liver, both to support a weight loss regimen, and because omega-3’s reduce hepatic lipogenesis.
My most dramatic testimonial involves a young woman who has Systemic Lupus Erythematosis, who is Rheumatoid factor positive. She was regularly having severe flare-ups, and associated joint inflammation. These symptoms required her to use 8-10 narcotic based pain medications, as well as non-steroidal anti-inflammatories daily. Her energy levels were very poor; she could no longer exercise and was frequently calling out sick from her work. After using Mila for 2 months, and since that time, her flare-ups are minimal, her pain medication and anti-inflammatory use is markedly reduced. In addition, her hair is growing in thicker, and her energy levels have improved to the point where she is getting to the gym, as well as running again. In her words, “Mila has given me back my life.”

Have you seen the movie Food Inc? Great article review of this movie!
You are what you eat: 'Food, Inc.'
Posted by Shawn Levy, The Oregonian June 19, 2009 04:39AM
Showing a film such as "Food, Inc." to an audience that has already purchased its buttered popcorn, jugs of soda and boxes of Mike and Ikes and Sno Caps seems slightly evil. I'm reminded of Edmund O'Brien in the first scene of "D.O.A." telling the police that he has been murdered: The damage has been done before the opening credits have rolled.
"Food, Inc." is an expose of the food we grow and eat, revealing the policies that shape agricultural trends; the provenance of the seeds from which our corn and wheat and soy are grown; the processes by which beef, poultry and pork products are raised and brought to market; the state of food safety inspection and regulation; the labor conditions in the agriculture and food preparation businesses; the marketing and packaging that guide our food choices; the impact of diet on individuals and whole populations; and more.
We've had a spate of movies with similar themes in recent years, all telling us that we eat poorly and that we're being hoodwinked by corporations that are in cahoots with political powers, including the documentaries "Super Size Me," "King Corn," "The Future of Food" and "Our Daily Bread," and the feature film "Fast Food Nation."
That last one was an adaptation of journalist Eric Schlosser's book of the same name, one of the first widely digested attacks on the American way of eating. Schlosser is a producer of "Food, Inc." and appears as one of its principal talking heads, as does Michael Pollan, the author of "The Omnivore's Dilemma" and "In Defense of Food," two other key texts in the burgeoning movement to remake the food system into something more rational and healthy.
Director Robert Kenner allows these two ample room for their ideas about the dangers, health risks, political machinations and just plain illogical practices of modern food production.
These are illustrated with visits to chicken farmers (some in the corporate industrial system, some working all naturally on their own), to an organic yogurt magnate, to the fields and homes of farmers who want to collect the seeds from their crops rather than buy genetically modified (and patented) seeds from litigious corporations, to trailer parks where the undocumented immigrants who work at meat-packing plants are rousted by immigration agents, to the halls of Congress, where a woman wages a campaign for stricter food inspections in the wake of the death of her young son, who ate contaminated ground beef.
The film makes its points in several ways. There are disturbing images of the production -- the only word for it -- of cattle and chickens in deplorable conditions and the industrial treatment of meat with ammonia and chlorine to fight the bacteria that results from these breeding practices. There are attacks on the influence of corporate interests on farm/food policy. There are also sentimental tugs on the heartstrings which rather overload an already loaded deck.
Kenner mounts it all with a pleasingly fluent and varied style, which makes it more or less easy to absorb his arguments, even if they're familiar from other books and movies and are presented with unopposed certainty. Indeed, the closing credits are a zealous call to consumer action. Probably, though, by then you'll already have been convinced in your heart of hearts that Mike and Ike are truly not your friends.
