List of lululemon quotes ... manifesto!

An interestingly covered water bottle caught my eye the other day, and I couldn’t help but be hypnotized by some of the quotes that were written on it. I knew I had seen them before… even the arrangement was familiar, and I quickly realized that the quotes were the same that cover every environmentally-friendly lululemon bag that you may opt to purchase right before leaving one of their retail stores. It turns out lululemon refers to this list of quotes as their “manifesto”.

I took the time to write them out… even though there are a couple fishy ones I don’t agree with.

• Drink fresh water and as much as you can. Water Flushes unwanted toxins from your body and keeps your brain sharp.

• Do one thing a day that scares you.
• listen listen listen and then ask strategic questions.

• Live near the ocean and inhale the pure salt air that slows over the water. Vancouver will do that nicely.
• Children are the orgasm of life. Just like you did not know what an orgasm was before you had one, nature does not let you know how great children are until you actually have them.
• Observe a plant before and after watering and relate these benefits to your body and brain.
• Practice yoga so you can remain active in physical sports as you age.
• Successful people replace the words ‘wish’, ’should’ and ‘try’ with ‘I will’. Ineffective people don’t.
