A Journey to Optimal Health

A conversation with:
Paul Matthies - Operations Director at Focuswise
Paul takes us on his journey From 310 lbs to 180 lbs
He inspires us to consider improving our overall health - not just losing weight

Highlights from this conversation:
● Neuropathy - The scare that motivated a permanent change
● Thinking about my funeral at 38 years old
● 30 lb. Reduction by giving up sugary drinks and limiting sweets
● Through Cardio, Strength Training and Martial Arts, I got my HEALTH back
● Change is hard and scary so it requires a mindset shift
● No magic bullet
● Journey of the whole person- physical, heart, emotions, spiritual, faith
● Taking ownership that this is MY journey
● Had to stop judging myself - judgement invites judgement
● Measurements, Scales and Mirrors are tools not goals
● Food is not the enemy - shift from good vs. bad to wise vs. unwise
● Discipline is what you want most not what you want now
● Physical movement is part of life’s happiness project
● Not what I have to give up, but what I have to gain
● Fear, Guilt, Shame and Perfectionism
● Humility, Pride and food as a crutch
● Getting insight from friends who are committed to their health
● You don’t have to go fast - just go (taking small steps everyday)
● Six Pack Abs with a TON of problems
● Paul’s 12 Commitments
