Be Brave If You Believe

So often we are afraid to speak our minds about something we feel strongly about. Many times we don't bother talking to someone about it for fear of what they might think of us. Why are we afraid to speak our minds? Well, we want to be accepted by everyone and if we go against the grain then we might upset the apple cart.

How many years can you go without speaking your mind? Most people go their entire lives without speaking up. I think it comes down to one really big thing and that is BELIEF. If you believe in something so strongly and you come across someone who disagrees with you, then you should stand up and not back down. Be brave and let the world know how you feel without worrying what people will think if they disagree with you.

If you believe in something then you should have a strong enough conviction to stand behind the way you feel. I am finally at this point in my life. I believe so strongly in the Isagenix products that I really don't care what you think about me and my routine. I can't tell you how many people look at me in disbelief that I hardly eat traditional food. They can't imagine not eating "real" food. That is such a foreign concept to the majority of Americans and it is a concept that could save their life. Sound dramatic? Do your research on our food supply and then ask me if it's dramatic.

I realize that most people I talk to about our food supply have no idea what I'm talking about or they just choose to ignore it. That is not going to stop me from educating people about the dangers we face now and in the future. I feel too strongly about it. Anyone who is in striking distance of me will get an ear full. My ultimate goal is to help people understand that what they eat could be causing them some serious issues.

I can't tell you how liberating it is to not care what people think because of your convictions. Is it wrong to learn about our food supply and then DO something about it? I'm having an issue with people not respecting me for my beliefs. Everyone wants me to eat what they eat all the time. When I tell them that I don't eat this or that because of GMOs or sugar or whatever it is, I get a look of disbelief. What's interesting is some of their reactions because they go into justification mode. They begin to justify what and why they are eating this particular food. Most people don't want to believe me when I tell them that our food supply is dangerous. I'm sure there are people reading this post that think I'm overboard with my belief. I respect that, but remember I don't care because I know the truth. I've done the research and it is due to that research that I have changed my lifestyle. Isn't it time that you do your research?

My advice to you is be brave if you believe. Get your voice and don't back down to anyone who thinks they know better than you. Don't let anyone put a shadow of doubt in your mind if you believe in something so strongly. Once you allow the slightest crack of doubt, you are rendered helpless to the negative belief. Be strong and the first thing you must believe in is YOURSELF. That is where it all starts, with you!
