Exposing the Mechanisms Used to Manipulate Your Thoughts, Actions and Beliefs.

  "The world is the will to power and nothing besides." Friedrich Nietzsche Some people mistake Nietzsche's quote as a call to crush any who stand in your way to when you have set a goal. No, it is a call for personal growth and becoming the best you can be.  You will only be fulfilled as a person if you can master yourself and your environment, And that can mean setting goals to become physically fit, have a strong family or stand up for your principles.  However, while this is mostly a factor of your personality and even soul, there is another extremely important component - a hormone called testosterone. Many people think testosterone is merely a male hormone that helps make muscles grow.  That is partly true.  Actually, men and women both make testosterone, though males have much higher levels.  And yes, it is very important in fitness and muscle development, but one factor people forget, even in regard to fitness, is that it is a motivational hormone....
