Many people today don't want honest answers insofar as
honest means unpleasant or disturbing,
They want a soft answer that turneth away anxiety.
Integrity is telling myself the truth.
And honesty is telling the truth to other people.

my girl Manita Sandhu Western Canadian Natural Figure Med Champion 2011
just got the cover of "South Asian Women's Magazine" & a big article page 70-72
July-Sept 2011 Vol.3 Issue 10
Manita explains after having her 2nd baby....
"Before long I was back at the gym looking for a trainer, since my other one retired. I ran into Dawn Alison then. I had heard such wonderful things about her that it was an easy transition for me. She coached me and mentored me for months and suggested I do the Western Canadian Natural Championships in Kelowna, BC, on May 21st, after months of training hard and dieting, I walked onstage and to my biggest surprise, I was placed first in my height Class."
"Having the right support behind you can help take you above and beyond your limitations. I owe my success to my first trainer Roberta Orth for getting me started in this field and now Dawn Alison, who is my mom away from mom. Nothing was done or "eaten" unless she knew about it. She is a guru in what she does, and if it wasn't for her powerful words of wisdom and support, I wouldn't be where I am today. She completely transformed my body into what it is today and I am forever thankful."

in spite of all obstacles, discouragement, and impossibilities:
It is this, that in all things distinguishes the strong soul from the weak."
"Perseverance is the hard work you do after you get tired of doing the hard work you already did."

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent
If you live long enough, you'll make mistakes.
But if you learn from them, you'll be a better person.
It's how you handle adversity, not how it affects you.
The main thing is never quit, never quit, never quit.
if you create the body you want
if you do the best you can with the genetics & the body you are given
under the conditions you are under
and you put yourself on stage in a competition
as long as you are happy with yourself
NO ONE CAN TAKE THAT AWAY FROM YOU
YOU ARE YOUR TROPHY
be happy with yourself & what you have accomplished
all you can control is yourself & your attitude
you cannot control who's onstage with your
or what the judges do
if you have expectations and those are not met you are setting yourself up
but if you are content in what you created
really thatz truely all that matters
this is why i always STRONGLY SUGGEST PEOPLE GET LOTS OF PROFESSIONAL PICTURES
BOTH ONSTAGE & A PRIVATE SHOOT WITH A GREAT PHOTOGRAPHER
because it's these incredible pictures that capture all your hard work & sacrifice
that over the yrs will give you countless moments of joy recalling everything you had to go thru to get there
not some dusty ugly old trophy
or a title that lasts only until the next yr when a new champion is crowned
i have tons of pics that go back from the when i started in competing in bodybuilding in 1992
but started training for competition seriously in 1987
competed in powerlifting to put on mass for bodybuilding 1990 - 1991 and all those pix
if i had listened to what the head judge in BC said about me in 1994 i'd have quit back then
he said i didn't have the hourglass shape they were looking for
so basically i didn't have the genetics to cut it
the picture below was of that show
where i didn't even get in the top 5 outta 7
i was completely devastated, but after i licked my wounds i came back the next yr in 1995 and won the overall and hvywts in Prince George
and got 2nd in BC Champ losing by 1 point & got 2nd at the Westerns
and 2nd again at BC Champs in 1999
took 9 yrs off to have my son then returned in 2008 to be crowned....
BC Champion Heavywt, Masters, Overall & Overall Best Poser
and have been going to Nationals every yr since
last yr my best finish 3rd at Nationals in Masters Heavywts
and here i am in 2011 at 46 yrs old goin on 47 in november
closer than i've ever been to my goal my dream
but if i'd remained discouraged, if i'd listened to other people & not my heart
then where would i have been ?
always always always follow your heart **** your head **** what others say or think
BE WHO YOU ARE
FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS
DON'T LET ANYONE TELL YOU YOU CAN'T DO IT
AND FOR GODS SAKE....
NEVER EVER EVER GIVE UP

Life is a succession of moments.
To live each one is to succeed.
Look to this day,
For it is life, the very life of life.
In its brief course lie all
the verities and realities of your existence
the bliss of growth,
the splendor of action, the glory of power..
For yesterday is but a dream
And tomorrow is only a vision,
But today well lived
makes every yesterday a dream of happiness
and every tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well, therefore to this day

"Before success comes in any man's life,
he's sure to meet with much temporary defeat and, perhaps some failures
. When defeat overtakes a man,
the easiest and the most logical thing to do is to quit.
That's exactly what the majority of men do."
Destiny is not a matter of chance,
it is a matter of choice.
It is not a thing to be waited for;
it is a thing to be achieved.

There are always two choices. Two paths to take. One is easy.
And its only reward is that it's easy
Self-respect is the root of discipline.
The sense of dignity grows with the ability to say no to one's self.

You must think of failure and defeat as the springboards to
new achievements or to the next level of accomplishment.
Choosing goals that are important to you
is one of the most essential things you can do in order to live your dreams.

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet.
Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened,
vision cleared, ambition inspired,
and success achieved
As long as we are persistence in our pursuit of our deepest destiny,
we will continue to grow.
We cannot choose the day or time when we will fully bloom.
It happens in its own time

A dream is your creative vision for your life in the future.
A goal is what specifically you intend to make happen.
Dreams and goals should be just out of your present reach but not out of sight.
Dreams and goals are coming attractions in your life

Both abundance and lack exist simultaneously in our lives, as parallel realities.
It is always our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend.
when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives
but are grateful for the abundance that's present
love, health, family, friends, work, the joys of nature and personal pursuits that bring us pleasure
the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience Heaven on earth
Excellence in any pursuit is the late, ripe fruit of toil.

The mind is the limit.
As long as the mind can envision the fact that you can do something,
you can do it,
as long as you really believe 100 percent.
If you really want something you can figure out how to make it happen.

Dream big dreams!
Imagine that you have no limitations and then decide what's right
before you decide what's possible
Do just once what others say you can't do,
and you will never pay attention to their limitations again.

The willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life
is the source from which self-respect springs.
Courage doesn't always roar.
Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says
I'll try again tomorrow.

Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more.
If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough.
Do not ask for fulfillment in all your life, but for patience to accept frustration.
Do not ask for perfection in all you do, but for the wisdom not to repeat mistakes.
Do not ask for more, before saying "Thank You" for what you have already received
