Chapter 1: The Importance of Energy Management

I’ve just spent the whole introduction waxing lyrical on the importance of time and why you need to make sure you are managing it wisely and giving yourself lots of it. Now it’s time to reassess that for a moment and explain that actually, in many ways, time management isn’t as important as you think.

Or at least that is to say that there are other factors at play here and some of them play a much larger role than you might expect.

In particular, one of those factors is energy. Your energy is tied closely to your time but the two are still distinct and you still need to consider them independently.

Because arguably, you could say that you actually have a lot of time. Most of us have a lot of time anyway; otherwise how did you manage to watch that entire boxset of your favorite TV series recently? When did you squeeze in watching all that junk TV?

And even the busiest of us usually find time for sleep!

The point here is that time management only works so far without energy management. If you don’t manage your energy, then you’ll find that you’re coming home and feeling completely wiped out at the end of the day. You probably have ample time to work out, to learn, to play with your family; you are probably just so busy at work and with everything else that you can’t use that time productively.

This is why we end up crashing in front of the TV and it’s why we don’t live life to the fullest! Unfortunately, this then goes on to make us even tireder and less energetic because our bodies adapt and become much less efficient. This literally happens; our cells lose their number of mitochondria and become less adept at converting glucose into useable energy.

Chapter 7: Why Off Campus Living is Much Better?

Synopsis

What to choose from? Is it on or off campus living? As a college student, you are probably thinking what to pick from. Instead of worrying about this concern, try to consider this chapter as your guide.

At the previous chapters, you already knew the different facts and benefits of on campus living. For unbiased info, here are the different advantages of off campus living:

Compared to on campus living, off campus allows you to do anything you want. You will not be held to the limitations and rules that those on campus need to follow. You also have various options to improve your surroundings. It means that you can use your desired interior decorator to make your space more stunning and effective.

Off Campus

In addition, if you want home cooking, you be able to plan and make your own dishes. You can do this without any restrictions. If you are living on campus, you have to visit the campus dining hall. Thus, you can save a lot of money if you are preparing your own meal.

Gives a Wide Variety of Accommodations

Depending on your choice, you can rent a studio apartment for yourself. You can also share a bigger apartment with others. Some college students even go together to rent a house. However, choosing the best place to rent depends on your budget and preferences for roommates.

If you choose to live off campus, you can also entertain your visitors with no limitations. Thus, you can schedule a daily visit from your friends, families or relatives.

Provides a Break from Campus

Some college students don’t want to stay in their campus. This is the reason why they choose off campus living. Renting an off campus home provides a break from school every night.

Say for instance, if you prefer a quiet neighborhood than noisy dorms, then, off campus living is your best option. You can find a serenity and peace in your own apartment when your campus classes and other tasks are complete.

Chapter 7: On Running

The great thing about MovNat workouts is that they combine running with working out. And that running is through uneven ground which makes it ‘trail running’.

And if you remember our description of how the primitive cavemen used to live, you’ll recall that they spent a lot of their time tracking their prey. In fact, it’s thought that our ability to keep running for long distances was our primary advantage over other animals in the wild. We weren’t as fast as leopards or as strong as apes but we could follow a gazelle until it tired out and then eat it. And this is also where our brains came in so handy.

We’re built to run long distances and running through the woods is a great way to do this that won’t impact badly on your knees etc.

It’s also 100% better than running on a treadmill. Why? Not only because you get fresh air and sun (more on that in a moment) and not only because you’ll be constantly adapting to changes in the terrain (thereby training your muscles more) but also because running on a treadmill means you don’t have to push forward with your feet. The floor moves underneath you, while means you only have to ‘touch’ the ground while remaining in place. This makes running on a treadmill significantly easier and significantly less beneficial in terms of calories burned.

Barefoot Running

Another topic that is a favorite among the primal-living crowd is the idea of barefoot running.

Once again, the theory is simple: we never evolved to run wearing shoes and as such, we shouldn’t wear them when we run now. This is the central premise of books like Born to Run and as it happens, a lot of experts are now agreeing with the idea.

Basically, when you wear a shoe, it means your heel is padded. That means you’ll likely land on the ground heel-first and in turn, this prevents your leg from cushioning the impact.

Remove your shoe and you’ll be forced to land on the ball of your foot. Why? Because it allows you to bend the knee and foot more thereby absorbing the shock. This running form is known as ‘chi running’ or ‘pose running’ and it’s the same method used by the Tarahumara Tribe – a tribe of indigenous humans that are known for being able to run hundreds of miles at a time.

At the same time, running without shoes means your toes are free to move around and to adapt to the terrain. When you step on a rock, your whole foot doesn’t twist but rather your toes splay around it. This also uses more muscle and strengthens and toughens your feet up too.

Chapter 9: What To Avoid

A lot of people want to contribute to making the world a safer place to live; the one that is free from pollution. However, not all of them know how to do it right. Most of the time, they are not aware that what they are doing pollute the air instead of making it cleaner.

The following are some of the most common mistakes that people commit when it comes to air pollution control:

1. Driving Short Distance: Most people know that driving contributes of the increase in the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. Yet, many people still choose to use their car even when they are just travelling at a very short distance. If you are just driving to a place around the block, consider taking a walk or riding a bicycle.

2. Leaving Appliances Plugged-In Even When Not in Use: Homeowners often leave their appliances such as TV plugged in thinking that it will not consumer electricity especially since they were in “Off” mode. However, leaving these devices including phone charger plugged in actually consumes electricity that in turn increase air pollution.

3. Buying Factory-Farmed Meat: Unknown to many, industrial farming practices produce water and air pollution. In this regard, if more people are patronizing factory-farmed meat, companies will be forced to extend the time they produce these meats in order to meet the demand. As an alternative, consider buying meats of organic fed animals since they produce less carbon dioxide.

4. Taking for Granted the Importance of Trees: As the world becomes more modernized, different infrastructures are being built. Roads are also continuously being improved to provide individuals with a more comfortable travel. However, in some cases, trees need to be cut in order for these projects to push thru. To offset the impact of air pollution it is highly recommended to preserve and plant more tress.

Chapter 5: Have Persistence

Synopsis

Persistence is probably one of the most admirable characteristics that a person may possess. This is the ability to be determined and achieve something, no matter what hindrances they may be facing. Having persistence will give you the courage to succeed, even if others quit in the middle of their journey. There may be different reasons why people quit, but regardless of the reason, their courage and persistence has driven them toward their goals. But, how can you have persistence?

“No great achievement is possible without persistent work.” – Bertrand Russell

Developing Persistence

Being persistent is one of the characteristics you should develop if you want to reach your goals, get what you desire, and may even be the means by which you assert yourself in facing difficult or stubborn people. The application of persistence on various tasks, goals and interactions in life is often what sets apart those who fail and those who are successful in life.

Many people have the capacity to set their plans and goals toward success. However, only a few succeed as only some stick to their goals or plans until they are accomplished. Most of them stop before they even take the first step. Often, they let fears or doubts paralyze them and keeps them from moving forward. But sometimes, others have motivation that is not firm enough for their goals to be met.
If you want to be persistent, here are some ways to develop persistence:

1. Determine Your Wants and Desires
