Do You Believe People Who Don’t Walk the Walk?

In today’s society, everyone thinks and proclaims they are an expert on something. But how many of them actually practice what they preach and walk the walk? And based off of that answer, how willing are you to believe them and do as they ask or recommend?

No thank you

I’d like to think that people out there who are trying to change lives can control and manage their own. However, I’m finding that not to be the case. If you follow my content, you’d know that I’m not a fan of doctors or the pharmaceutical industry. I believe both of them are simply putting a Band-Aid on a bullet hole when it comes to American’s health. Neither one of them gets to the root of an issue, and simply have you popping pills to manage a condition rather than fix it.

Have you looked in the mirror lately?

I have an extremely hard time believing anything that doctors say these days. I’ve been to the doctor with my grandmother when she was sick, and while she’s holding onto quite a bit of extra weight, the overweight doctor who she saw looked at her and said she should consider going on a diet and better managing her weight. Really? An overweight doctor is telling a patient to go on a diet? But wait, it gets even better. Before the doctor came into the room, we passed the hallway where he was sitting doing some paperwork—with his hand in a bag of potato chips. Oh, the irony. They don’t walk the walk.



Another thing that bothers me about doctors is that their fix for everything is generally by pen and paper—here’s your prescription. Thank you for the copay or whatever payment you need to make before you leave, and I’ll see you for a follow up in a week, don’t forget your checkbook. So, in essence, people are going to the doctor for them to investigate an illness, have a check-up, whatever, and they end up leaving with a prescription. No digging into the true root of the issue, just pushing each patient out the door with a drug prescription.
