I've been following Jack Kruse for a while. I think the guy is crazy. Crazy in a good way (that's possible right?) Brave in a way that I want to be...I want to stand up for what I believe in, but far too often I don't.
He talks about using cold thermogenesis and a paleo diet based on circadian cycles to cure neolithic disease. Half of the time I have NO clue what he's talking about. I have to read and re-read what he writes about ten times before it starts to sink in a bit.
He writes about biological mismatches...that we're too smart for our own good. Our bodies weren't designed to turn on the lights so we can stay up later. Our bodies weren't designed to eat a banana in December because they don't grow in December (or something like that...)
I like to read what he writes because it challenges me to THINK.
For far too long I believed the medical professionals who told me to eat more grains to be healthy (just be sure to eat whole grains) and DO NOT eat fat or you'll have a heart attack. As I got older my hypoglycemia / low blood sugar issues got a lot worse. I was eating constantly trying to stem off an attack. Once I started eating fat and protein and stopped eating grains and sugar my hypoglycemia issues disappeared.
What does this have to do with my life being a mismatch?
I say or think one thing, but my actions tell a different story.

"Be the change you want to see in the world."
What a wonderful way to look at life! Although goal setting tends to backfire on me, when I focus my priorities, everything else seems to fall into place.
Action Step: Who or what do I want to be?
- Homemaker: Focus on my family before others.
- Minimalist: Relationships first!
- Frugal / Wise with time and money
- Healthy: Primal / Paleo Diet and taking time for myself so I feel great
- Encouraging (blogging and volunteering)
- Loving: don't be judgmental...extend grace to others and myself
