Getting Out &
Staying Out of Debt
Think about how few people get to retire these days with all
their debt and financial obligations behind them, with enough
money saved up to live the kind of life they've always dreamed
of, and still young enough to enjoy it all. Would you like to be one
of those people?
This workshop is designed in just a couple of hours to share
with you a system that could get you out of debt and keep you
out of debt. Through this workshop, you'll learn a plan to pay
yourself first that is totally automatic, a plan that will automati
cally secure your future and pay for the present. In this work
shop, Bishop Parks will clarify that:
• You don't need to make a lot of money to become wealthy
• You don't need a budget to get out of debt
• You don't need willpower
• Anyone can get out and stay out of debt
Bishop Parks hopes that you will be one of the many joining
him in powerful workshop. Your deliverance from debt and
becoming wealthy could start for you on January 31, 2006.

setup for failure. The good news is there is a healthy, less
exhaustive way to achieve your goals. You can have a better
body, you can be healthier and you can look younger and more
vibrant. You really can!
To help you in your quest to “be a better you” celebrity health
and style experts share some “easy to follow” advice in Life and
Styles Today’s 3-part “Top 10 Resolution Makeover Series”.
In this month’s feature Tyra Bank’s nutritionist. Madonna’s
dermatologist and Demi Moore’s fitness trainer offer great tips to
help you stay on track with the top 3 resolutions for 2006!
TOP 10 RESOLUTION MAKEOVER SERIES
Parti.
1. LOSE WEIGHT
Naturally, a healthy diet and a steady exercise plan can make
a difference.
1. START OFF SLOW AND EASY Set a 20-minute workout plan
and work your way up.
2. MAKE IT COUNT Get your heart rate up as quickly as possi
ble during a cardio workout.
3. TARGET LARGE MUSCLE GROUPS During each 20-minute
session, concentrate on two or three body parts max and work
them as hard as you can. For example: Squats and lunges are
best because they work the most muscle groups at once.
4. BE CONSISTENT Work out regularly and at a comfortable
pace. Your work-out should not be a marathon.
2. LOOK YOUNGER
Start taking care of your skin now
1. FIGURE OUT YOUR SKIN TYPE Wash your face with a mild
cleanser, pat dry and observe the amount of oil your skin retains.
Dry skin won’t be oily at all, oily skin will be oily all over, combina
tion skin wiil be oiiy oniy in the t-zone and sensitive skin may be
red and irritated.
2. GET BACK TO THE BASICS Use a lotion with Vitamin C and
Sun Screen to protect the skin from harmful rays of sunlight and
other harsh elements.
3. DON’T GO OVERBOARD Find a few good products that work
for your skin type and use them. There are many tried and true
products at your local drugstore or health food stores that do the
trick just fine. For example: Over the counter witch-hazel is a
perfectly well balanced toner for just about any skin type and it’s
been around for ages.
4. COMMIT TO A SERIOUS SKIN-CARE ROUTINE Cleanse your
face day and night and moisturize to give it the proper nourish
ment to fight dryness and premature aging. As you mature, your
skin matures. Don’t wait to take care of your skin. Do it now.
You’ll be happy you did.
3. EAT HEALTHIER
Kick the junk-food habit
1. UNDERSTAND YOUR CRAVINGS Don’t confuse thirst and
hunger. Drink 10 glasses of water a day and your body will
process carbs more effectively. You’ll also crave sweets less.
2. MAKE SMART SUBSTITUTIONS Usually, when you desire to
have something sweet it’s an indication you’ve gone too long
between meals. Craving salty foods is a sign you lack protein in
your diet. Use “bridge” foods like fruits, nuts and baked chips
instead of fried to get through the moment.
3. DON’T SKIP MEALS Force yourself to eat regularly. Not
letting yourself feel hunger is one of the best ways to avoid
impulsive snacking.
4. EAT SMARTER AND FEEL BETTER Eat good most of the
time and you can afford to cheat occasionally. You’ll feel better
and as time goes by you will crave junk-food less.
