Day 1: How to Transform Your Body in 84 Days

by Matt Leave a Comment

I don’t know if I’m excited or fearful for the next 84 days in my life. Actually, that’s not true – I’m excited.

I’m excited because I’ve done it before and I know how AMAZING the outcome is. 84 days isn’t a short amount of time but it’s not that long either when you consider the massive transformation you can have on your body, your mind and your spirit.

Imagine waking up on day 84, looking in the mirror and seeing a new YOU. Not just physically but mentally. After all, you just completed a major accomplishment. You committed to an 84 day challenge of eating healthy and working out and you just won the gold medal of follow-through. Now you can see those abs, chest, and the place where those love-handles used to be.

Isn’t it sweet to taste victory?

My Annual Review and Vision for 2014

by Matt 1 Comment

I am writing this post on the last day of 2013. Wow. It’s truly hard to believe that tomorrow is the first day of 2014. In some countries, it’s already 2014. When you read this, it will be 2014.

I started writing this post in my journal, which has been with me through 13 countries. My journal has been to more countries than most people. As cool as that sounds though, it’s not the number of countries that’s important. What’s important is experiencing a country and a culture that is completely different from your own. Someone who leaves Canada to live in Indonesia or China or Nicaragua for 1 year will be transformed on a deeper level than someone who visits a new country every two weeks.

Okay, back to the post. The annual review. This is the first true annual review I’ve ever done. I’ve written versions of them before but it wasn’t what a true annual review should be. Personally, an annual review should be a deep and honest look at the last year. A compilation of what went wrong and what went right. A deep reflection into why things went right and why they went wrong. Something that allows you to learn from the mistakes made and then banish them into history. Finally, it should look ahead into the future, not necessarily with goals but with an overall vision of what you would like to see in yourself over the year ahead. It could be a vision of what you hope to achieve in business or more importantly, what you wish to see in yourself. It should be taken very seriously and not just a “dream” that gets tossed in the garbage a week later. Every day is a miracle after all. [Read more…] about My Annual Review and Vision for 2014

Greg and Rachel Denning Discover Share Inspire

In the second episode of the Live Limitless podcast I chat with Greg & Rachel Denning from DiscoverShareInspire.com.

Greg and Rachel are the incredible duo currently road-tripping their way from Alaska to Argentina. But wait! They are also doing it with their five kids! After many years worth of family trips all over the world, they are currently in Guatemala getting ready to continue driving their vegetable-oil powered truck all the way down to Argentina.

As someone recently engaged, I was super excited and thrilled to know that long-term travel doesn’t have to stop when kids arrive. 🙂

This interview is entertaining and inspiring. I highly recommend listening to it all.

Welcome to Live Limitless

Welcome to Live Limitless.

For those who are new to the game, this site used to be called A World of Inspiration. It was a fun site based mainly around travel and it introduced me to a lot of people who I now call friends.

At the same time, I was never truly in love with that title. Since a blog like this tends to blend in with it’s “writer’s” personality, I felt I needed to come up with something that means a lot more to me.

A World of Inspiration sounded just a little too oprah-ish.

A world of inspiration

Then one night when I was talking to my fiancé, she began to ask what I was like before I met her.

See, she met me in late 2008, just before I left to Australia on my first solo 6-month trip. Before that, and especially prior to 2004, I was a middle-class kid growing up in an oil-rich town in Northern Alberta.

Everyone around me made six figures and it was easy. I grew up basically knowing my salary would be over $100,000 with little to no schooling and my dreams consisted of following the joneses and buying a big house, a truck, a cool car, a boat, a snow-mobile, a quad, and taking part in those pre-fabricated all-inclusive holidays that many people were enjoying at the time.

That’s really it. Nothing wrong with it I suppose but then something changed. I began to think bigger. I wondered what it would be like if I didn’t work for oil companies like everyone else. I wondered what it would be like to really discover my strengths and talents and do something more remarkable. Something so cool that a book could be written about it. What would happen if I just left my town and setup shop somewhere else? Could I do something like that?
