Forrest Gump's Determination

Many of our readers may remember a critically acclaimed movie from nearly 30 years ago — Forrest Gump. The movie came out in 1994 and was a big hit, winning 6 Academy Awards including Best Picture. You may recall Tom Hanks played the character Forrest Gump, someone who faced a great many challenges in his life, but always overcame adversity. Forrest exhibited a zeal for life, determination, and focus on his objectives. This is why the character was so endearing. He was an extremely positive person and once he had a goal, you expected him to succeed. His determination is inspiring and all the more powerful considering nobody ever gave him much chance to excel at anything. 

Sometimes life has a way of throwing curveballs at us — we have a health related issue, something happens to increase stress, or we get into bad habits with our diet, exercise, or sleep. If we don't identify and address those challenges, they can eventually become life threatening. Instead of giving up when faced with adversity, if we commit to approaching life with a positive attitude and determination, we can overcome, make necessary changes to our lifestyle, diet, or routines, and become healthier for it. Our friends at ReversedTV-Carnivore are doing just that. The participants during this TV season are addressing their diabetes with a change in diet, focusing on clean, all-natural, whole foods including healthy fats and proteins. We are thrilled to participate in this positive, life-changing series and wish all those who participated continued success in overcoming chronic health issues. You can watch all episodes of the series, HERE. 

Well Wishes,  Team USWM
