Fight for Your Health
Hi, my name is Dr. Mario Mancini. I’m Medical Director of the Center for Integrative Care and, incidentally, a full-contact fighter.
I’ve learned in my years in the ring that if you want something, you’ve got to fight for it. The question is: How bad do you want it? From the start of my fighting career, I didn’t train just to fight- I trained to win. I asked myself the most important question you must ask yourself… What’s my “Why?”
My answer: To be the best, and not the best over anyone else, but the best version of myself. So I encourage you to ask yourself, “What is my WHY?”
If you don’t have one, life’s kicks and punches will control your attention and all you’ll do is protect yourself. You don’t need to be a full contact fighter to know that if all you do is block what comes at you, you’ll never win in the ring or in life. You’ll just be continuously distracted, unable to take action.
When you focus your mind beyond the demands and stresses of life, you will start to see beyond the attacks coming at you and instead you’ll begin to see the holes, the spaces, and the opportunities your opponent gives you every time he attacks. These same principles apply outside the ring just as much as they apply inside it.
Will you get hit? Will you get knocked down in life? You better believe it. But we all know that it isn’t about how many times you get knocked down, but it’s about how many times you get back up.
If you want to take your health to the next level, it is this attitude that I have seen in my patients over the past 18 years that achieved extraordinary levels of health. If you want to find out more about how I could be your cornerman to get you to the next level of your health, call (619) 287-4005 and schedule a free consultation with one of my functional medicine specialists to see if and how we can get you to the next level.
