QUICKTIP No 17 – IF FACED WITH A CHOICE, CHOOSE TO BE POSITIVE
When it comes to enjoying life, having the right attitude can make all the difference. If you have a positive attitude you’ll find things easy, whereas if you have a negative attitude, you’ll find things more difficult. For example, suppose that two computer salesmen, Mr. Negative and Mr. Positive travel to the same African country to investigate the market for computers. Within less than 48 hours, they discover that no one uses one! Result? Mr. Negative sends a message to his Head Office: ‘No chance of doing business here: no one uses computers.’ However, Mr. Positive sees things differently. He reports: ‘Terrific business opportunity here: no one uses computers.’ See how important attitude is? Both men are faced with an identical situation, but their reactions are completely different. One is ready to give up; the other is just starting! No prizes for guessing which one is more successful. Now let’s take a look at two slimmers, Mrs. Negative and Mrs. Positive, both of whom want to lose 30 pounds. When Mrs. Negative starts dieting, all she thinks about is what she has to give up. Why? Because to her, dieting is all about denial, pain and suffering. By contrast, Mrs Positive has a completely different outlook. In her mind, dieting isn’t about giving up things, it’s about gaining things. So instead of getting suicidal about giving up cakes and cookies, she looks forward to gaining a lovely slim figure and buying lots of new clothes. She looks forward to regaining her confidence and being able to go out and have fun without worrying about her size and shape. No prizes for guessing which one succeeds.

QUICKTIP No 20 – COUNTING CALORIES IS NOT ENOUGH
Counting calories is not enough. Why not? Because calorie-counting only helps us to lose weight – it doesn’t help us to stay healthy. You can count all the calories you like, but it won’t ensure you eat a balanced diet or develop long term healthy eating habits. That’s why the Anne Collins Diet talks about fat, instead of calories, and includes so much information about food, cooking & shopping. It’s designed to help you to lose weight and stay healthy.
