“He is superior to his fate. He is stronger than his rock.” —Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus
This is an iconic image of my oldest daughter, Lily. Her whole being was focused on the Herculean effort of lifting, then dropping underneath way-too-much-but-somehow-not weight.
Known as Olympic Lifting, she was performing a snatch. Just over a month ago she was one of about a dozen girls to qualify for USA Nationals.
She left this morning with Mom to Austin, Texas to compete! She was nervous and almost dizzy with anticipation.
Thousands will watch as she takes her spot on the lifting platform. It'll be grueling...she'll have to lift more than she's ever lifted in her life to be competitive...all under the watchful eye of judges, competitors, coaches and spectators.
But it's not about lifting. It's about giving an effort and learning to be superior to your fate...it's about learning to not be defined by the outcome, but instead be defined by your efforts.
The majority of people fear outcomes and therefore never try. Shift perspective to give a Herculean effort, like Lily, and the outcome is irrelevant.
It's the same with being healthy, or living young. You have to give an effort!
Living young is the prize for Herculean efforts!
Taking your meds is not an effort. That's a cop out.
There's no glory to be had in swallowing meds...But "they" want you to think otherwise. For instance, every celebrity that comes down with cancer is praised for "fighting" cancer with chemo...then they die.
That's not fighting. That's stupid! We have decades of research showing that chemo is more deadly than cancer.
...that statins are more deadly that so-called "high cholesterol."
...that blood pressure meds are more deadly than high blood pressure.
...that hypoglycemic drugs for diabetics are more deadly than diabetes.
The list goes on. And yet people keep taking more meds and dying young.
Then get my FREE 18 Minute Workout and give it hell! Just Google it.
Good luck Lily!
Dare to Live Young,
The People's Chemist
