Following Healthy

My favorite.. food! Wherever you are in life and whatever you are doing, you need to be eating healthy (finding the right foods to fulfill the essentials: proteins, carbs, fats, vitamins, minerals, water) to fuel you. Whether you are fueling your mind and studying the night away or fueling your body and training for competitions or just living a healthy nutritious life, knowing how to eat and what to eat is exponentially important for your body. Nutrition is especially important and all the while, complicated. Note all the strict diet plans and explanations throughout the world.

I have always thought that if you work hard for something, doors will be opened for you. Maybe, it will not be exactly how or when you wanted it but it will come..  I have learned a few lessons since starting my first job (sixteen years old, Taco Time :) as a crew worker.. woohoo! haha) and the most important one is to put your heart and soul into where you are at. For example, at my first job I was so excited to get my first job!
