Hi, I’m Jeffrey Kippel. 🤪 About twenty-    five years ago, feeling the need to make a change in my life, I turned to fitness and bodybuilding looking for answers.  I fell in love with the experience. The community became part of my daily life and I turned it into my full time passion. 💪👊💪 Then one day at the gym I heard a voice in my head , a "download" as I like to say, telling me “you’re going to be the biggest name in body-building”.   Of course, at that time I had no idea what that meant, but I felt it was a calling, and was compelled to follow its lead.  🤔 Looking back now, much of my life, for about 30+ years, I was driven to make a difference. When I left university I started Canada's first environmental magazine called Recover - Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Recover. 😁💥😁 I then spent some time in the corporate world studying accounting and working as the CFO... that clearly wasn't for me so together with my wife, partner and best friend we started  FAME & the World Natural Sports Organization (WNSO) and began inspiring transformations in millions of people around the world. As its co-Founder, I had the privilege of meeting key influencers, brand creators and top athletes. Beginning in 1997, I helped oversee and coordinate hundreds of fitness events, television shows, magazines, publications, seminars and model competitions around the world. 💪☺️💪 My focus was on inspiring individuals to “build their body” by offering them platforms on stages, spots on TV shows, features in magazines, and the opportunity to build their brand and get exposure for their self-dedicated hard work.  😎 Fast forward to today, and I realize that the insight I had to become the biggest name in body-building now means something different. It means being bodyproud! 💪‼️💪 It is about Inspiring the World through Fitness by Redefining "Fit"  to be about mental, emotional, physical & social health too! 👊👊👊 If you believe this is an important message too then we'd love your support. All contributions are valued and all forms of participation are appreciated! Thank you 🙏🙏🙏 🔽🔽🔽 ***The link to the website is in my profile or go to: www.bodyproud.com*** *** https://www.instagram.com/p/B1O8XmnjX5u/?igshid=tb0ygb1kyk2o

How do you know if you are making the right decisions ❓ 🤔 Well... we had an important document we needed to sign so that we could launch our project forward. 😎 We had a series of meetings to discuss next steps... and some were leading us down the pathway of the "shiny red car"... that seemed to promise everything we needed in a simple effortless fashion ‼️ 😶 I have learned though, that in most cases when you peel back those layers there seems to be more and more layers to pass through and my gut was telling me otherwise. ⛔ ... and then I reminded myself of the commitment I made to ALWAYS listen to my gut feel, my intuition... the guidance from a higher field of awareness... 🤗 So @mindyblackstien and I said "let's do it" and once we sent the confirmation email back we noticed that the time we sent it was 3:33... so we looked it up and this is what we found: 😁 "333 means that your angels are just nearby, ready to help and reassure you that your plans are going well. It sends the message that your prayers have been answered, and seeing 333 means that whatever you requested for is on its way to you" 😁 * How amazing is that ‼️❓‼️ Surely a sign that we chose the right path 🤪 * * * #intuition #listeningtointuition #fitnessforlife #fitness #bodybuildinglifestyle #bodybuilding #health #mindful #333 #angels #bodyproud #fitadvanced #mindenhanced #quotesforlife #angelsaround #life #businesstips #fun https://www.instagram.com/p/ByNP4c9jt8I/?igshid=1lxn2srhlsl55

Distraction or Grit❓🤔 Integrity or Unwavering Belief & Dedication to the Golden Pathway (as @mindyblackstien would say) ⚡👊⚡ * * This was a very interesting week... highs, lows and knowing when and how to Reframe and "Pivot" around to let the right decisions come forward. And... having the clarity to know when to see the learning lesson, the opportunity or having the confidence to walk away. * I think it was a test... A test to see if we could be taken off course or if all the passion 🥰, perseverance 😶 belief 😉 and determination 🤪... our grittiness, would be the victor. * I am thrilled to say that we passed 😛 We listened to our gut, stayed true to who we are as people, what the mission and project we are launching is all about and made the right decision 🙏 * In fact, here is something really #cool that happened as soon as we committed 🤪 We happened to have sent out the signed contract to move forward at 3:33... so we looked it up and this is what we found: 😁 "333 means that your angels are just nearby, ready to help and reassure you that your plans are going well. It sends the message that your prayers have been answered, and seeing 333 means that whatever you requested for is on its way to you" 😁 * How amazing is that ‼️❓‼️ * Have you had a similar experience? If so, how did it make you feel? * * #mindproud #mindfullness #lifequotes #intuition #grit #determinationquotes #gutfeeling #goldenpathway #love #businesstips #businesssuccess #bodyproud https://www.instagram.com/p/ByLRW7VDS-n/?igshid=1hah3wfhx0bp

"Work is love ❤️ made visible and if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit and the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy" - Kahlil Gibran * Double tap ❤ and tag SOMEONE who needs to see this! 👇⁣ * I believe this 💯‼️ I have worked in many areas as we have been learning, growing and preparing for our current launch of the @bodyproud_movement and what I have learned is that unless there is passion behind what I am doing, a real sense of purpose that is beyond just me, than the doing the "work" doesn't feel like work at all. If feels like the the building of new dreams, vision, hopes and excitement. When I focused on the "shiny red car" or other "distractions" simply in the pursuit of money it never felt complete, stress levels were high, enjoyment was low and I needed to rely on external motivation to get it going - cash, prizes, recognition. However I have found that when I am doing what I love to do, the instrinsic motivation kicks in and things seem to always work out 👍😁👍 What do you think?
