More evidence that low-calorie sweeteners are bad for your health
Studies show that artificial sweeteners can raise the risk of hypertension, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes and heart disease, including stroke.
One of the most common complaints I hear from people is that they are just ‘too busy’. There’s too much to do and not enough hours in the day to do it in.
There’s a very clear distinction between being ‘busy’ and being ‘productive’, however.
In some cases we make ourselves busy in order to avoid doing those things that may be more demanding, but really important – or to shield us from having to confront uncomfortable personal issues (see What are you avoiding?)
Over the next week, notice when you are busy and ask your self. Are the things you are doing truly productive? Could you actually delegate some of those tasks, or even drop them all together? Are you caught up in Time Wasters? If so, be ruthless about dropping those activities and concentrate instead on things that are really going to produce a result.
Extra Tip 1
How about coming up with an instant scoring system? Give yourself a mark out of ten on each of the things you find your-self doing throughout the day. If you can’t give it more than a ‘5’ then think seriously about not doing it and moving on to something more productive.
