“Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe it can achieve” – W. Clement StoneLike any learned skill, there are certain basics that must be mastered first. The very bedrock upon which all health and fitness achievement rests are thoughts. Everything man-made in the world or any action you’ve taken in the past all started with a thought. There is not one man-made object or goal that didn’t start as a thought in someone’s head that was then made into reality. Your toaster, your TV, your automobile, your desire for better health.A single thought ultimately transformed into physical reality.In order to achieve any health or fitness goal you must start with this basic concept; thoughts are things. Thoughts are the foundation upon which you build the framework for attainment of your goal. Every thought has a physical manifestation in our bodies; every thought produces physical substances called neuro-transmitting enzymes that have instant effects on how we feel and who we are at the cellular level.Don’t believe me? Think of biting into a big, juicy lemon or think about fingernails slowly running down a chalk board and tell me you didn’t have an immediate, physical response.Or how about a thought that changed the world?Every day, thousands of times a day, all over the world people fly from destination to destination. It’s amazing that a person can step into a device that lifts them off the ground and flies through the air at great speed sometimes over great distances safely carrying them to their destination in a matter of minutes or hours! Only a bit over a hundred years ago that would have been considered impossible or a miracle. Yet it happens every day today and it started with a thought in someone’s head that man could fly. On December 17th, 1903 the thought that man had had for generations to fly, became reality.That is the power of thoughts!If you can have that kind of immediate response from such a simple thought, just imagine what you can accomplish with a focused, burning desire backed by faith and persistence!Life isn’t fair or normal, there’s just life. But that should be a comforting thought. If life were fair all things would be equal and all people would be equal. The logical conclusion is that there could be no social movement up or down, no bettering of yourself nor worsening, no getting healthier, just stagnation. Because life isn’t fair it means you have the ability to control whether you improve your life or make it worse but at least you have the ability to make change.What about external influences which you have no control over? Say your significant other is killed in a car accident or you become paraplegic in a skiing accident. The list could go on and on. But there is one thing you have total control over.Viktor E. Frankl, a concentration camp survivor, put it best in his book “Man’s Search for Meaning,”"The one thing you can’t take away from me is the way I choose to respond to what you do to me. The last of one’s freedoms is to choose ones attitudes in any given circumstance.”The only absolute freedom you have is choosing how you react to life. And how you choose starts with a thought.Who you are right now is the sum total of what you’ve thought about up to this moment. If you’re not satisfied with who you are right now, the good news is who you will be from now on is entirely up to you. Change your thoughts and you can start changing yourself. If you want to lose weight or be more fit, it all starts with a thought.

Designing the Right Entertainment Centers Can Be a Lot of Work
Designing the right entertainment centers can be a lot of work. After all, everything in living room furniture has to fit together. The entertainment unit has to perfectly accommodate the TV, the receiver, the DVD player, and the speakers. The sofa has to sit enough people, while fitting comfortably in the room. The coffee tables have to be able to take whatever abuse they are given, while still maintaining a simple and elegant design. In short, entertainment centers can be a nightmare. I know. I just decorated mine, and I’m still recovering six months later.Of course, there is a wide variety of entertainment furnishings available, and this is bound to make things a little bit easier. Furniture entertainment centers are all different, because consumers are all different. Our furniture entertainment center consists of solid wood and simple upholstery. The couch is elegance yet comfortable, the actual entertainment unit is a spacious wood cabinets, and the table itself is made of dark oak. Everything fits together, yet everything also has an artful, cobbled together look. It is as if it all somehow fell into place, looking elegant and yet involving no design work at all. In reality, it took me months to complete. The illusion, however, is compelling.My cousin has owned three entertainments in his house, and all of them are modern. The first one was sort of thrown together out of furniture that he already had, and is not worth talking about. The only one that really looks good is the newest one. Unlike the other furniture entertainment centers, he designed it all to fit together. All the furniture, in fact, is from the same factory and meant to fit together. It is all synthetic – either plastic or metal – and has a very minimal and modern look. Although I find the way it looks to be cold and unappealing, a lot of people love that look. Furniture entertainment centers like my cousins are increasingly popular.If you are looking for furniture entertainment centers, I advise that you take your time. After all, if you end up with a design that you are unhappy with, you will have wasted thousands of dollars. If, on the other hand, you are willing to wait for a few months you might come up with the perfect design. Do not be satisfied to go to just one store. Even if it has the best prices on furniture entertainment centers, it will not have all of the designs – none of the stores do. You need to look at a variety of different products before you make your decision. Otherwise, it will not turn out right.
