Your relationship to failure is your relationship to success

If you believe failure is a negative, you will avoid it. If failure is pain, you will do more to avoid it than to gain success.
If you believe failure is a requirement you will do what you need to to experience it.
If you have failed in the past and you hold on to it you will likely fail again in the future

Try Hydrant: http://drinkhydrant.com Code: tinyleaps

Why I Started

Almost hit 210
Decided I wanted to take control
Knew I needed to learn about my body
Decided to weigh myself daily for the data

Lessons Learned (These are just for me)

My body doesn't process carbs well
Around 80g of carbs per day usually = weight loss
High protein diets leave me feeling energized and focused
100g of carbs per day usually = sustaining
If I'm in a "losing pattern" I can cheat without killing momentum (it slows but progress is still made)
There are a lot of landmines
Always read labels
Most things are fine to eat as long as you can "afford it"
Having an understanding of your macro ratios, quality of food, and what works for your body is more important than counting calorie

Notable Quote

"Across many studies of mammals, from the smallest rodents all the way to us humans, the data suggests that we are profoundly shaped by our social environment and that we suffer greatly when our social bonds are threatened or severed. When this happens in childhood it can lead to long-term health and educational problems. We may not like the fact that we are wired such that our well-being depends on our connections with others, but the facts are the facts."

- Matthew Lieberman, Author of Social

3 Reasons

Sense of purpose
We want to be needed and relied on. We want to mean something to someone.
Sense of acceptance
We want to feel validated as the people we are. A social circle proves that we aren't the "weird" kid.
Sense of support
We want to feel that, should we ever need it, someone has our back. Even if we don't want to rely on that.

How to Build Your Community

Find groups and communities around your interests
Be open and willing to share pieces of yourself
Have an opinion
