In the weight-loss and body building oriented book The Four Hour Body, author Timothy Ferris talks about the power of just paying attention. People who weigh themselves daily tend to lose weight whether or not they engage in any other behavior change. Without consciously trying to “eat better” or “exercise more,” by paying attention to what you are doing, you end up making better decisions. The best part is that it feels “effortless.” When you are aware of your weight daily, you naturally make better choices without trying.

You’re probably familiar with the notion that when something suddenly becomes of interest, you start to notice it everywhere. For example, remember the bright green Scion Xb I shared with you here? I had never really noticed those types of cars before; however, when I purchased it, I started seeing them pop up everywhere. I even took notice of a few in my area that were my same unique color as mine. The reality is that those cars have probably been around me for a while, yet I didn’t notice them because they weren’t of interest to me at the time.

My Money Personality

I love a good personality test. I remember when I was younger taking various personality quizzes like “What Your Favorite Lipstick Color Says About You” and “Which Celebrity Crush are you Most Compatible With? “ These moment-changing quizzes would be in an overly colorful teen magazine and after experiencing much delight in taking them, I would bring them to school to force encourage my friends to take them as well, hoping that they got as many “A-ha!” moments as I did from them. Even now on Facebook, my friends are continually taking quizzes like “Which Disney Princess Are You?” Who are YOU? Who am I?? You’d think that since I’ve passed the age of thirty, I’d have me all figured out. Don’t get me wrong – I do know me to an extent, but it’s so much easier when someone else finds better words and meanings, right? Plus, they are usually written in a way that makes you feel like your trait is the best trait, similar to reading a Horoscope and, in my case, feeling as though Capricorn rules them all!
