The Three P's of All Ailments.

Due to a conversation I had while photographing a woman in the Oil & Gas industry;  a light bulb went off as a spark of conversation turned to a inspiration piece from mere chit-chat.

All of the ailments in our life are caused of many sources, be it natural or unnatural; yet the solution of the problem, unsurprisingly, all come from many sources. Most unnatural,  and few natural. 

The Pill

The Patch

The Problem

The Pill

The quintessential piece of all Western medicine and mainstream propaganda.  The quick fix that all seek, young and old. It is this that the majority of people all live and die by. It is , for the most part, the snake oil of men.

Some so quick to down pills for everything; yet they still perish.  Why? Do the pills fix the problem? Or do they only cover it up. I, myself, have been without insurance for years. Would you care to know how many times I've been sick? Or would you rather know how often and well I choose to care for my body to avoid getting sick?

The Patch

"Out of sight. Out of mind" is the foundation that the patch as created for us. 'Lo we do hide our reality seeking eyes from the truth and seduce it with all sorts of other trinkets to mask what is ailing us so.

Does this honest do anything for us? Do we really forget our real issues when we throw a patch over it? Or do we make matters worse and merely throw it at the back of our minds to fester while it exacerbates our real issue?

The PROBLEM

The more perceptive of you have already figured it out and some of the more knowledgeable people already knew this, but here is the root of all ailments. The very stem of all that plagues us.

The problem is your choices and your lifestyle.

Your weight,  poor health, low finances,  low self esteem and lack of confidence comes from an unhealthy combination of bad choices of unpleasant lifestyles.

You cannot outrun, nor can you ignore it. Whatever pill you take, it's like a weed. Pull one, more grow.

Whatever patch you try to use to cover it; it's only a matter of time before it returns.

We are given free will to decide how we will live and what we will live with.

Nothing is permanent

Everything can change

Make the choice to change your lifestyle for the better, and the returns will be good, if not better than what you've expected. 

Happy Training

When Did We Become Copies?

There was a time during my upbringing when the undeniable desires to achieve more and believe in yourself resonated within me like the vibration of the bell above the church during Sunday service.

Now days I see that this chime has faded into the remedial and consistent 6am alarm that I hate.

Not only do I hate it , I resent it.

I resent it because it is a constant reminder of the entrepreneurial spirit is being ignored and was sold out for the overrated suit and slack combination that screams "Corporate Slaves".

When did I become a carbon copy of the failures I've subjected myself to?

When did I forget my own capabilities and ambitions?

There's NO reason we should follow the deathnail that seals our fates into a mediocre conforming coffin

There is absolutely NO reason why we should feel stuck in a rut and accept less

And there is no reason why we can't change things for the better.

Nothing is permanent

Everything can change

Once you start , all it takes is time and effort to fulfilment.
