Lucas Seipp-Williams on Men’s Mastery: Best Year of Your Life
from Lucas Seipp-Williams, Baltimore Health Coach
www.BaltimoreHealthCoach.com

Luke with Happy Clients
In 2006, while attending the Institute for Integrative Nutrition a mentor taught me to make every year my “Best Year Yet.” It’s an exhilarating game that changes everything. You go from living into your probable future (looks a lot like it does now!) to actively creating your life from “anything is possible.”
How to play is simple, but it takes courage and a commitment to living life to the fullest. There are two simple steps:
#1 Regularly ask and honestly answer the question:
“What do I really want for my life?”
#2 Stop making excuses and get in action, NOW.
Following these two steps, I went from earning $700/month and never imagining I could run my own business to grossing up to $10,000/month with a business that I absolutely love in just a few years.
Tiny Steps or Big Breakthroughs?
At the beginning, before I knew how to ask for and accept high-level support, I was making mini, incremental steps forward in all areas of my life.
In 2009, I created massive transformations and breakthroughs.
The reason for my success?
I put into place Step#3: Get big time support from expert coaches. Over the years, I’ve had coaches and I’ve done programs, but nothing has come close to the support I got from Seth Braun and his Men’s Mastery Course.
Seth Braun’s coaching is exclusively designed for men like me – young men who are tired of repeating the same patterns, tired of getting results in one area of their lives, only to sacrifice all the others, and willing to do the inner and outer work necessary to create real and lasting breakthroughs.
Anything is Possible for Your Life
Literally, anything is possible for your life through those 3 steps:
#1 Vision the life you want to live.
#2 Stop making excuses and take immediate positive action.
#3 Get massive support to accelerate your growth and side-step unseen obstacles.
Vacation, Adventure, and Travel
When I launched my business, I worked almost every waking moment all year long. In 2009, I took over 2 months of vacation: 1 month of retreats in Costa Rica and 1 month for yoga training in the Bahamas. Not bad!
And I’ve created a business plan that will make this type of time off possible every year.
Fitness and Sports
I never thought I’d learn to surf, but it’s hard not to if you spend time on the beaches of Costa Rica. And I now have one of the most thrilling and rejuvenating hobbies to look forward to for the rest of my life.
And it may not sound like a big thing for most of you, but I played in my first adult sports league this past winter. When I was younger, I sustained major sports injuries. Until recently, that has prevented me from getting back into a league.
In 2009 I got crystal clear about my love of sports and took the necessary steps to rehab my body and get back in the game.
Service
Service is a major part of my life now. While in Costa Rica, I witnessed a monkey being electrocuted on a power line. I told the story to some friends, and now we run an annual fundraiser retreat to raise funds and awareness for the protection of the monkeys.
Costa Rica retreats are a favorite part of my year, but a favorite day of my week is Fridays, when I take off work to be of service to veterans who have been homeless and addicted to drugs or alcohol after sustaining Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in foreign wars.
A Legacy of Health and Vitality
I never thought I’d be able to take off a weekday (work day) to do, essentially, whatever I want. I can do this because each year I take my business and my coaching to the next level – refining whom I work with and the programs I offer. I’ve developed a one-of-a-kind system, the “15-Minute Meal System,” that supports busy people to master healthy, delicious and FAST cooking. It works well and happy clients are sending more and more people who are ready, willing and able to take their nutrition to the next level with my support.
Family
Being self-employed, I quickly became a work-a-holic. As you just read, I’ve made huge strides with life balance, but I never seemed to have the rich and fulfilling relationships with my Family – siblings, parents, grandparents, etc. In
2009 my intention to be a loving presence in my family caused some major breakthroughs for several f
amily members.
I even brought my
family together for the very first celebration of my deceased grandfather’s life, many years after his death. It was an incredibly healing experience for all, and would not have been possible without a commitment to living “My Best Year Yet.”
It Just Gets Better,
If You Want it To
I’m clear that every year of my life will be my “Best Year Yet:” more fun, more fulfillment, more success, more learning, more peace, more of all things good.
And I will continue to get expert support from people who will accelerate the process.
How About Your Life?
So, What do you want for your life? I mean, really want? And what would your “Best Year Yet” look like this year?
All you really need to know is that you want to play the game. And then get support. If you are a young professional like me, and you’re a man, you’ll want to seriously consider having my coach, mentor and friend Seth Braun in your corner. It’s made all the difference in the world for me.

City Homestead Project April 20th, 2010
Friends,
How much food can I produce on a city home lot in the next five years?
What if half the people that had lots converted 10% of their lot to food production?
What would it mean for Health? Economy? Family? Community?
As a health coach, I have been grinding on these questions for years. So, after dreaming about it, I decided to roll out a long term experiment.
Now, I finally got around to documenting some of the work here on film and photo.
I’ve been documenting most everything in a journal for yearly review, but am really excited to share this endeavor with you via media channels.
First, I hope to get feedback from all of you experienced permaculture, gardener, farmer, soil builder, types.
Second, I want to inspire more people to build health from the ground up. Literally.
The most profound health supportive activity is gardening. I am so serious. After coaching hundreds, or maybe thousands now (?), of people on health and nutrition, I have come to the slightly disturbing and clear reflection that most people could have a richer, fuller healthier life with a small garden.
I guess that is not so surprising. But it is a whole new way to work with someone. I don’t know how to help more people have this lifestyle. This is my way to begin to learn about how to teach others, while I learn too!
I will be posting a movie over the next couple days. It is taking my MacBook a long time to complete the edits ( I need more memory). The PowerBook remains free though, so I can get these uploaded now.
Anyway…
I love teaching our girls. That is a major WIN for us too. Kids love to grow things. They are helping to start seeds. The witness the germination. They see the seeds turn into sprouts, then full bloom plants.
They know the basics of compost, how to use tools safely and they spend time outdoors with mom and dad.

You see, it is an Integral Health practice. If you take Integral Life Practice and apply it to the way we hold our City Homesteading project, you really see a multi-dimensional growth practice par excellence!~ Physical. Mental. Subtle Body. Community. Culture. Family. Nature. It is exquisite.
I first presented gardening as a quintessential Integral health and nutrition practice at an Integral Institute meeting back in 2008. The seeds were planted long ago (puns).
Since my parents were really into “back to nature” and “Whole earth Catalogs,” I grew up with a half acre garden, fruit trees, chickens, and what is now known as “permaculture.”
Of course, I want to support you in living a great life too. I’ve learned that greatness does not lie in perfection, it lies in forgiveness, compassion, commitment, persistence and humility.

Best Headset for Phone Coaching
Coach Steven Morrow recommended this to me.
http://headsets999.stores.yahoo.net/cosobihewi2p.html
I wore mine out after three years of INTENSE use and just bought another.
Here is teh deal. If you are coaching people on the phone with only one ear in the game, you are missing out on the full experience. On the phone, you need to be tuned in to subtle nuance. With a binaural headset, you hear with both ears.
So much more effective!
This is an unsolicited, non-affiliate recommendation of a great product.

Vision into Plan for 2010
Hey All,
It took about three weeks of weaving in and out of winter retreat, but I am DONE!
The final push happened tonight from 10 PM to 1 AM.
Of course I know that early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise. But with young kids and a home office, as many entrepreneurs would confirm, it can be heard to be without interruption. That is why I tend to write books from 10 PM to 1 AM as well.
Here is the video clip of the final 2010, 12 month plan. 12 months is the minimum required to have a business working for you! I teach some version of this in each seminar that I offer; The Awakened Life Program, The P3E Project: Indestructible Success and the Men’s Mastery Course.
There were three steps to this:
1. Learn from 2009. Time to review and analyze the previous year. Address weaknesses and faults as well as success and strengths. Brutally honest with praise and critique.
2. Look within. A process of going after any core issues that may get in the way of me playing big. Looking at beliefs and perspectives that limit creative thought. Then getting clear on the WHY questions, why do I want to do the work I do? What are my values? What do I want to contribute?
3. Create a Vision and make it a Plan. The natural next step is to take the inner expedition out onto the page. I mind map the year. What I know for sure. What is the top focus. What are secondary and supportive. What needs to be cut. Then, after working and reworking the mind map with fine detail of project planning, I take it to the 12 month wall calendar. I bought a $5 desk calendar from Wal-Mart, tore it into 12 months, and tacked it to the wall. Presto! A 3′ by 5′ wall calendar!
If you are wondering why I was whispering; my kids are asleep down the hall!
