Financial:
Money is nothing more than energy
Any time you damn any part of creation, you damn God. Where is God not? Where is Spirit not, where is Energy not? It's all the same stuff.
Relational:
You have relationships with yourself, others and the world you live in
Which level is the most important? - Self
'Soulmate/Better-self' is contradictory. - Your better self is NOT outside of you
First focus on your relationship with yourself
Create peace in the world by creating peace within yourself
Mental:
Thought; Feeling; Action
To achieve what you want in life, you must think, feel AND act
Your marvelous mind: What are you doing with it.
Physical:
The creator of the universe evolves through your body
Must have look for the body, not just love with the body
We're not physical beings having a spiritual experience, we're a spiritual being have a physical experience. - Your here to be physical.
When you start thinking you own something, it starts to own you.
Spiritual:
"Na-Ow"
Your greatest spiritual calling is to find your purpose in this lifetime, and to pursue it and do it with excellence!
And fall so in love with what you do, and so in love with what you're a part of.
Spiritual wealth is being so in love with what you are doing that there is no separation
Ancient esoteric tradition told us: For you to reach that place of ultimate spiritual enlightenment you must fall in love
[Bhakti Yoga] - to fall in love that you and that 'thing' merge

Going Beyond Winning & Losing
Most of us have heard about the Three Ds:
1. Desire
2. Drive
3. Discipline
We all know people who have desire - for example a desire to be rich, but they lack either the drive or the discipline or both.
Most of us have heard about the Triple As:
1. Ambition
2. Ability
3. Attitude
We all know people who have ambition, but they never develop their abilities - often because they have a bad attitude.
Most of us have heard about the Triple Es:
1. Education
2. Experience
3. Execution
We all know people who have great education but lack real-world experience. When they lack real-world experience, they often are unable to execute - perform, get things done in a timely manner, produce results - in the real world.
And most of us have heard of the Four Hs:
1. Honor
2. Humility
3. Humor
4. Happiness

Lean Muscles: Key To Development
Many of us face a situation, where they are laughed about in public because of their bony structure or even while considering a case where a person wants to develop his muscles because he is a fan of a superstar who has great muscles. But, wait before you plunge into hours of toll taking exercise, here are few keys that can help you smoothen your way and which will show instant results too.
Starting with what your body needs, it should have three prime constituents when your body decides working out.
The first and the foremost of them is protein.
More Protein- the only thing that makes a massive difference
More protein is required if you are expecting a quicker outcome. Our body muscles are only made up of proteins. So, if you are planning to exercise a lot, that means there is an ultimate requirement of protein. Don’t even think of growing your muscles, if you are not consuming enough of protein.
Surveys say that if a person wants to maintain his or her weight, one gram of protein should be utilized for equivalent pound of person’s weight. There is even more to it, once you plan building your skinny body. You will not only have to maintain your existing muscles, as it will undergo a wear and tear but also need to build new ones. This can only be possible, if you take protein rich diet and consume as much protein you can.
Next to come is Carbohydrates
When you think of Carbohydrates, it is those items which include sweets and rice. But, that is all simple sugar and that can hurt your process of muscle building.
What you should consume is complex form of Carbohydrates. Sweet potatoes and brown rice are its best examples. The reason complex carbohydrates should be consumed is, it’s really out of the question for them to convert into fat. This provides you more energy to work it out and obviously the least fat to be dealt with.
Finally it gets physical – Heavy Weight Exercise
After you are assured of your diet plan, the final and all-important step is heavy weight exercise. The biological touch to it shows that your body will work as much as you want it to be and thus if you stretch your muscles with these heavy machine exercises, it will retaliate and build muscles which will ease the task of your body next time when needed.
The scope does not just end here. You can go beyond it too. But initially, these three can be the building blocks of your muscle-growing schedule. They can lay you a slow but sure foundation for a rocking body so that next time when you are talked about in public, it should about your massy body. Keep working and be fit.
Lean Muscles: Use Supplements
What if you don’t know how to start your muscle building exercise and you go on exercising with your routine stuff. You would not know but improper diet and avoidance of proper guidance may lead you to adverse effects. One of the most important parts of muscle building is a supplement. But you should be careful while choosing it. It should be included in your regular diet schedule such that it complements the body building process. However a good diet is inevitable and don’t consider these as its replacement.
While choosing a Supplement
Almost necessarily, a good meal and a finely prepared exercise program would make sure that you are benefited by right amount of lean muscle and it would also assist you to lose mass. Once this gets sorted out, then you need to think of supplements like Niox that can be inculcated into your healthy routine for advancing lean muscle. There can be other supplements too that can be boosters but definitely you could not survive on them alone.
What people sometimes do is depend a lot on their supplements and not their regular diet, but the fact is that any sort of supplement that is used is only effective when it supports the well-balanced prescribed diet. It should not be lacking in nutrients and you should work out regularly according to your body structure and the diet too.
Mostly people are looking to grow lean mass that helps them out and inhibits the suffering from various kinds of deficits in the body. Unfortunately, even the smallest amount of nutritional deficiency could ruin plans of a person building up extra muscle mass than what they currently have. The diet is greatly processed to guarantee that it survives for a longer period over people who exhaust most of the vital nutrients, minerals and vitamins that our bodies actually require.
A word of caution
Remember, not every supplement is in fact similar and it is excellent that you have a glimpse in the surrounding to witness what is offered and investigate as much as you can to discover which are the best ones that suit to your exacting necessities. There are few supplements like Niox that have been exclusively planned for serving an individual to raise more muscles and present them the power to perform their workouts well. The entire use of Niox and other such products similar to it is to assist your body to generate added nitric acid.
All in all, supplements are boosters and should be used cautiously. Before buying it, labels should be properly studied and checked out for its compatibility with your body. Take them with care and it will help you compliment your body.
Lean Muscles: Factors That Help
Toning body muscles requires genuine devotion of time and tremendous efforts. Here are some of the important factors that help you in building body muscle rapidly.
1. Genetic Factor:
Genes play an important role because genetic disposition of parents are inherited into their respective children. That means, if parents are thin and have small body structure, their offspring’s would generally adopt the similar kind of built. However, this does not indicate that they cannot build good muscular body.
2. Metabolism, affecting body size :
Metabolism is a furnace that effectively burns fat and much more calories that you consume. Thus if you are not able to increase weight easily then we can say that metabolism is efficient.
3. Myth about, Universal exercise program for weight:
In reality, program like Universal training for weight do not exist. Body demands for each and every individual are unique and distinct. The finest way is to track programs, which are being tested on someone who is having same metabolic rate, body type etc. as ours. There are also some standard exercises for all people.
4. An important hint:
Rousing muscle growth is the basic aim of training program for weight. Resting after exercise is an important factor for building muscles. A body muscle does not develop while exercise, but it develops during rest.
5. Gaining Benefits from Workouts:
Compound exercise with many muscle movements is more advantageous compared to isolation exercises, which basically concentrate on some particular areas only. Hormones responsible for muscle development are also produced from stress by compound exercise.
6. Benefits of Free Weight Exercise:
Exercise with free weight will have good movement of body and thus more calories will be worn out resulting into good muscles development. Free weight exercise is always beneficial to the beginners.
7. Hard Working:
Hard working is important for gaining good muscles. Lifting similar weights always will not lead you to building muscles, so you need to increase weight lifting gradually. This will help you to excite muscle fiber, which leads towards good muscular development.
8. No Need of longer training sessions:
The catabolic hormone is responsible for breaking muscles fibers, which in turn is responsible for muscle repair along with rebuilding. But, if training sessions are longer, then catabolic hormones will break muscle fibers instead of repairing it. Appropriate duration for training is 60-75 minutes a day.
9. Aerobics:
Aerobics will help you to burn fat easily and faster but it’s only helpful if you take diet properly.
10. Dietary habits:
For muscle development, eating is very essential. Eat very often i.e. 3-6 times a day in small quantities, which means eating at every 2.5 hours a day. This will help you to digest food properly and gain adequate calories from the food.
Thus the above mentioned facts, if followed properly will surely help one to develop lean muscles.

Lean Muscles: Creatine Can Help
Creatine monohydrate has undoubtedly been confirmed to be the most admired and perhaps the most efficient bodybuilding supplement on hand, in the recent times.
The magnificence of creatine lies in the fact that it is completely natural and is present in a variety of foodstuff, assuring that it has no reason to be forbidden from any sports tournament or competitions.
The process of formation
First of all, we need to throw some light on the facts related to creatine. Speaking concisely, creatine is created in a normal human body by a natural process.
The purpose is to supply the energy required by the muscles to carry out proper functioning. After being generated in the liver, pancreas and kidneys, it is carried to the muscles by the blood. There it is transformed into phosphocreatine, which is a dominant metabolite required to revive the muscles' ATP source of energy.
Viewpoint of a bodybuilder
If we take a view of this from the point of view of a bodybuilder, lean muscle mass can be extensively enhanced by the effect of creatine, thereby making one’s performance better and improved in exercises involving high intensity, raising energy levels and accelerating the revival rates. The strong capability of creatine to enhance energy level in muscles lies in its act of synthesizing the muscle protein and simultaneously dropping the rate of the breakdown of protein. This occurs for the reason that creatine results in super-hydrating the cells present in muscles with water. It not only perks up the muscle growth, but also assist in adding bulk and potency to muscle fibers.
How to use?
By and large, creatine is consumed in two ways.
• In the first method, the muscles are loaded with 20 to 30 grams of creatine per day for four to seven days. After this period is over, a regular intake of 5 to 15 grams per day is carried out as a part of preservation.
• The second method gradually involves skipping out the loading period and simply supplementing with 5 to 15 grams per day for a comprehensive amount of time.
Safety of Use
Let’s try to find out an answer to the most often asked question here – Does it work expectedly and is it safe to use?
Creatine has unquestionably been verified valuable in recent years. As for a fact, over twenty scientific research works have accomplished that creatine can raise energy levels as well as result in improved potency, endurance levels and revival rates. If considered as a preparation aid, it has come out to be a winner. Not a single case has come in virtue claiming creatine to be unsafe, provided that manufacturers' instructions are followed strictly.

Positive Attitude: Building Confidence
How is this for a powerful statement? Attitudes are the emotional underpinnings of motivation. So, how do we utilize and tap into what this has to give when it comes to performance and excellence in life, personally, professionally, in all areas and aspects of the here and now and years to come?
Attitude, confidence, practice and aptitude are good companions to have on this journey we call life. How we perceive and judge what we see, experience and live through come together, synergize and combine to form our life attitudes (positive, negative, ambivalent, ever-changing, set in stone, it all depends).
Predisposition, affinity, approval, respect are all things that come to life through a positive attitude. Take interest and feel engaged, involved and hands-on with life is what it is all about.
We are needs-driven pretty much as human beings and the more we address these with a positive attitude the more lasting and quicker we will see change and not just for the sake of change, but real progress and substantial, significant altering, adjustments and accommodation. We want and have to understand, be in the loop, to decide, act, speak, contribute, creating a special sense of community, acceptance and belonging, recognition, looking for positive experiences that build and lift us up, tapping into and inspiring our enthusiasm. It is important to unearth and foster a sense of purpose and assess, track and celebrate progress to keep that positive attitude. To foster a positive attitude and build confidence as well as competence focus on things like constructive feedback.
- Emphasizing progress, seeing the positive in things
- External achievement, recognition and reward does not really motive as much, you’re your own performance standards
- Focus on competency building and mastery of skills
- Most importantly for self and others are to remain positive putting the real importance on things like what has been accomplished and achieved to date, how far to go, how to practically get there and remain self-motivated and self-managing for success. You will pick the fruits of your labor and dedication in the form or individual performance gains in no time. It will become like second nature to you, without much effort.
- Recognize rather all positive accomplishments, encourage yourself for more reflection and introspection, self-evaluation and self-correction.
