It's Dr. Kim D'Eramo from The American Institute of Mind-Body Medicine. Do you know that environment is always going to be much, much stronger than willpower, meaning whoever you spend the most time around, the most time listening to, reading, plugging in to, is going to have a much more powerful effect on your body, your health, how you feel, how much energy you have. Even things like how loving your relationships are and how much money you make; this is so much more integrated into your body at the cellular level because your body is always receiving messages from everyone and everything around you. If you keep trying to willpower your way to making change and overcoming it, your life's going to be an uphill struggle. It's almost impossible to make real change. It is impossible to make lasting change, unless you change who you're tuning in to.

Look at the five people you spend the most time with, whether it's family members, friends, but also what you're reading, what you're listening to, news. Are you tuning into YouTube? Then start making changes. You can spend time everyday with Oprah Winfrey in a virtual way. She has so many words of wisdom in what she's learned from her failures and her successes.

If you want to create more loving relationships, look for people who are emanating those qualities of where you want to go, whether it's health, love, wealth. It's so much more about being in that energy and your cells are listening.

Let go of trying to willpower your way through life. Make life easier on yourself and let yourself absorb this at the cellular level. Start paying attention to your environment. Environment trumps willpower.
