Last night I saw Hamilton The Musical with the touring cast at the Hobby Center for Performing Arts in Houston.

Wow!

Now I know pretty much the entire script by heart. And yes, I was mouthing along with the entire cast.

But the genius of the choreography blew me away!

There’s a ton of context in the music which just comes to life in the performance. There is nuance thread into almost every line.

The Musical blew my mind.

I see why people pay so much for it.

What’s more, I feel like I could go back 3 more times. Each time, pulling back another layer of complexity woven into the heart of the performance.

It was that good.

You don't need to know Rocket Science to lose weight. Of course, it helps to become knowledgeable in nutrition if you want to go far. But if you're just looking to lose 20 pounds, it's pretty easy. Eat Less Do More ZenHabit's summed it up even better in this article . A diet is healthy when it: gives your body nutrients it needs, without giving you too many calories (too many calories leads to obesity over time), or unhealthy things (like too much saturated or trans fat, nitrates, excess sodium, unhealthy chemicals). It's that easy... in the beginning. Of course the next natural questions are How many calories should I consume daily? What nutrients do my body need? Great news! There are apps for that. I use MyFitnessPal. Another great one is LoseIt. They are both free and help you track calories and nutrients. Of course, they only work if you use them.

There is a point where an incline looks flat. Don't let it fool you into believing you are not making progress. The ratio for improvement can only go to far per skill set. After, it's severe diminishing returns. Don't get frustrated at the apparent lack of progress. If you're putting in the work, somethings happening. Get transparent in your accounting, and find out exactly what that something is. Have faith in the system. If you're changing strategies every week, you might be running around in circles. Dedicate 6 weeks to a plan and stick to it the best you can. Log your progress so you can see your improvements. Don't trust your memory to remember where you were day 1, day 7, etc. Write it down. At the end of your time, review your progress. What worked, what didn't. The adapt your strategy for the next 6 weeks. Also stop looking to be perfect. Look to progress. Too many people try a body builder's routine and wonder why it's not working. Star...
