If a doctor gives you medicine to take, one week you take it every day as prescribed, the next week you take it once, the week after 3 times, the week after that not at all, and then twice the week after, and then you complain the medicine has not worked, what would think the doctor’s response would be if you told him/her how often you had really taken it?

Of course he/she would look at you daft as you are expecting good results from the medicine and very unlikely to get it if you aren’t consistent of course.

With exercise, if you exercises 3 times one week, then once the week after and so on with the random pattern, should you expect great results from exercise? Of course not.

Exercise we have proven to be amazing medicine for your body and mind, but only if you are regular, consistent and stay in the flow of it.

Your consistency is your true secret, at all costs make sure you get it in at least 3 times a week to experience the massive pay offs.

You can control your actions and your attitude, and 99.9% of the time, that is always going to be enough for every situation.

The noise you will hear around you will go up and down, some people will be happy what you do, some not so much, but WHO REALLY CARES, because if you relied on everyone else’s opinion, you would NEVER get anything done.You having a good attitude every day, showing up giving your best always means good to great things happening, and it’s culmination of these good efforts that ultimately makes the difference between you ending up where you want to be or being where you feel frustrated because “what could have been”..

When you give your best every day, you not only make yourself better but everyone around you too, remember how valuable that can be to those closest to you when they need inspiring and a lift up in life.

Monday is famous for being a “low state of mind day”.

Monday only lasts in a low state of mind day because you let it.

Workouts change your state of mind undoubtedly, they lift you up even when you may have thought that was impossible even, and they inspire to finally get your week going.

Your week should THRIVE on routines and the habit of eating well before and after your workout always sets up a great precedent. One good habit can lead to another one, and once you start feeling better, you will see Mondays as opportunities, rather than somehow a day to avoid and hide behind the settee on.

What about those people who tell you monday is a “bad day”? Do they exercise, do they eat well, do they moan about just about everything else too? There’s usually a pattern of inaction and negativity that runs through all areas of their lives.

There’s plenty of others who see monday as the start of your week and chance to thrive because they rely on exercise to not only lift their energy, but to lift their mood and to push themselves well and truly into a high state of mind every single time.

Monday is what you make it, feeling better is not ‘lucky”, feeling better is created by you and your habits every time.

Weeding is probably one of my least favourite tasks, but we feel so much relief when we get it done. We have to do the same with our MINDS too, because if we don’t, negative weeds can overcome and undo all our positive work we do every day.

Weeding can take the form of removing negative people from our lives. Our environment is previous to us, we work hard to get where we are, and we never want anyone or anything threatening to hurt all of our great progress.

Keep remembering we get up to 60 thousand thoughts a day, 75% of them are negative and we either listen and believe them, or we have a chat with ourselves daily in the form a of self talk to tell ourselves the truth.

Negative outcomes are NOT inevitable, they don’t have to be our reality, our daily lives need daily WORK to feel good, perform well and live better lives that make us happy.

This will explain A LOT for many of you.

We have on average 12,000 to 60,000 thoughts a day and 75% of these are negative thoughts!

Worst of all, 95% of these negative thoughts are repetitive!!

This is why we shouldn’t listen to OURSELVES as most of our thoughts will be to our detriment and working against us. We need good SELF TALK and a positive environment becomes so much more important in our DAILY lives.

Having a bad day, can’t function very well? It maybe because you are listening to those voices and thoughts in your head way too much.

Exercise will crush those negative thoughts, or at least keep them at bay, eating well will boost your immunity making you feel well, and you must continually tell yourself you are good enough, you are strong enough to overcome challenges and you will prevail, despite what you “think” at may times of the day.
