Accomplish more especially of the important

things

Accomplish more with less stress

Become more promotable

Overcome procrastination

4 Research by Dan Buettner, Supported by National

Geographic, written in The Blue Zones - Where people

live to 100 and beyond.

To Add YEARS to my Life

Maybe even live to100

Learning from those who live to 100+4 1. Move Naturally

- Be active without having to think about it - The centenarian did not go to the gym

2. 80% Rule - Hara Hachi Bu - Painless cut calories 20% - but eat a lot - I’m full vs. I’m no longer hungry

3. Plant Slant

- Avoid meat and processed foods - Showcase fruits and vegetables - “Nuts - the longevity food” - eat them daily

4. Grapes of Life

- Drink red wine (in moderation daily) - Treat yourself to your “Happy Hour”

5. Purpose Now --- See the Big Picture - “Being able to verbalize the reason to get up today is worth 7 years of life expectancy” Dan Buettner NPR 12.5.12. - ikigai - Okinawan - the reason I got up today - No word for retire

6. Down Shift - Take (make) time to relieve stress - Reduce the noise in your life - Stress today - takes years from tomorrow - See Modules 3 and 5.

7. Belong - Weekly spiritual experience - add 4 - 14 yrs.

- Participate in a spiritual community - NIH - tracked 34,000 - for 12 yrs >> 20% less likely to die at any age -258/263 centenarians belonged to faith-based community - Key - relinquish the stress of everyday life to a higher power

8. Loved Ones First - Make family a priority - Aged who live with family were sharper mentally and socially (MacArthur Study)

9. Surround Yourself with those who share your Blue Zone Values - Happiness, loneliness, smoking, and obesity are contagious - Farmingham Studies - Identify & make time for your inner circle - Social networks shape the behavior of long-lived people’s health



SECRET 9 – Imitate the Champions

Consider champions in tennis, golf, football or baseball

They all have a personal coach to help them become a champion

And the Personal Coach to help them stay a champion

SECRET 9

The Most Successful People use a Personal Coach as the Q – E – S –

(Quickest, Easiest, Surest) Method to become a Champion and Stay a Champion

Your Personal Coach has a double purpose. It can be looked at from the vantage point of

Implementing the 9 ½ SECRETS as seen in the table of contents, or as a Fully Functioning

Aligned Thinker on your Journey, as seen in the appendix.

Directions: The day before your meeting with your Personal Coach, send the completed Partner’s

Guide to your Personal Coach.

Aligned Thinking Growth Pyramid

1. The base = the knowledge to think/act like Most Successful People.

You receive this in the modules on the bulletin board.

However, just knowledge of the process will not bring you benefits.

2. The left side is your “I can” attitude.

However, with just base and left side, the pyramid is all open and cannot stand.

3. The right side is YOUR IMPLEMENTATION.

Now you have a closed pyramid that can stand on its own.

Critical Point: As can be seen from the above, this process let’s your Personal Coach focus on exactly the

area that is most important to your living the 9 ½ SECRETS using Aligned Thinking: i.e. your

implementation of the SECRETS. With your Personal Coach you’ll be able to build these new habits in the

Q – E– S Way (Quickest, Easiest, Surest).
