Getting into a very positive mindset can be the hard thing, keeping it though is much easier and living the life you want on your terms can become a reality.

To make achieving a positive mindset much easier, you need to make certain powerful steps.

You need to state what you really want to achieve.

You need to formulate and trust a tried and tested plan to get there, and practice it daily.

You need to avoid those people who are negative influences in your life.

You need to surround yourself with positive influences on a daily basis if possible, the support you get will be vital.

You need to make sure your goals are measurable and recognize your impressive progress along the way.

As challenges appear and people try to throw you off course, remember why you are doing this in the first place, dig deep and continue to prove certain negative influences wrong, keep your focus always on your end goal/achievement and never forget that.

Practice these choices every day and the results can literally be staggering and make a huge impact on your life.

There is a huge difference between being “interested” in getting fit and being COMMITTED to be being fit and healthy.

When you are “interested” in doing something, you will only do it when circumstances allow. You make excuses to get out training and eating right, something ALWAYS comes up and you don’t really want to take the hard road that ensures amazing results like many people have had and are still having.

When you are COMMITTED to something, you never make any excuses and you only want fantastic results. You will do anything to get to your workouts, you will pull out all the stops to make sure there’s always healthy food in the house, and you are always working on developing a very positive mindset.

When someone applies to join the gym, we find out exactly how committed they actually are.

The individuals who want to do it the most are always the ones we want to work with most too!

This makes sure we have committed, positive, eager to learn individuals in the gym at all times.

This also makes sure there is a super positive atmosphere too. This inspires everyone else and everyone wants to give that extra 5%, even when it may have been easier to go home a little bit earlier.

Being committed is the best choice you can make to deliver life-changing results for yourself and everyone around you.

Everyone we train needs to keep focusing on succeeding all the time and never get caught up in things that are going to throw you off course.

It’s very easy sometimes to sometimes get into a negative mindset that many people you know follow.

It’s easy to start “rationalizing” why missing your exercise sessions has somehow become “acceptable” now.

It’s easy to slip and eat something totally full of sugar and fat that you weren’t even planning on eating, especially in the week when you’re trying to eat well.

This is why you should already be planning on Monday’s big start to the week.

Getting into a good routine from Monday to Friday and planning ahead can make the difference between failing and succeeding in your programme.

A good idea is to map out what Monday should look like in terms of exercise and what you need to eat and drink.

If you have your food in school or work, have you taken steps to prepare it tonight or first thing tomorrow?

You know if you don’t, then the school/works canteen is unlikely to offer many healthy choices and this will automatically put you on the backfoot right at the beginning of the week when its so vital to start off with a bang.

Your workouts won’t be so good, you won’t feel energised and your desire to exercise will be nowhere near as good if you don’t feed your body well.

Is your kit bag in the boot ready so you can go the gym straight from work?

Have a great Monday and the rest of the week is likely to be good too.

Simple planning ahead makes it much easier to get the impressive results you want, those who never plan are the ones who slip back all the time wondering why a healthy lifestyle can be so hard.

Practicing doesn’t make you perfect, but practicing a lot WILL make you attain a peak performance more often than not.

If you look at your habits every day, then you will realise why you are being successful or not by now surely.

What do you practice most in your day and week?

When was life working out best for you, and which habits did you used to practice on a daily basis back then?

What were you doing? Who were you hanging around with back then?

What were you eating? How often were you getting your training sessions in on a a weekly basis?

Who did you learn most from on a daily basis to create new productive habits? Did you have a coach back then and were you in any kind of programme to get the best out of yourself?

So from this you should be able to realise which habits work best for you, what inspired you to get into shape in the first place and isn’t it time you replicated all of those habits again and got into fantastic shape, both mentally and physically?

You know it’s going to take a lot of hard work to be at your best physically and mentally again, but dig out that roadmap again of how you were at your peak once in your life, and you will soon be getting the very best out of yourself once again.

Your daily and weekly habits will determine how successful you are full stop.

If you keep the word “progress” as part of your daily and weekly thinking, then you are always likely to improve.

Once you make the big changes in the first place, then the progress will naturally slow down a bit, but if you focus on making small little changes constantly, then the progress will never stop.

For example, if you have started this week without doing a big shop, then its likely you won’t have the foods in the house necessary for you to eat healthy and start the week off right. This is a simple thing you can get right every Saturday or

Sunday to make sure you do. This is a sign of progress.

Letting things interfere with your Monday training session (such as not even showing up) can make a big difference. Starting the week off right and starting off in an energetic way is vital. Your Monday workout needs to happen no matter what and will always make sure you progress.

If you go out regularly in the week for a meal and alcohol, as well as the weekend, then stopping drinking in the week, as well as choosing healthier options will make a massive difference.

If you drink and eat badly in the week, the next day you wont feel like training, or you definitely wont feel like training hard. Being conscious of what goes into your body especially in the week will give you another lot of big progress to your overall development.

Every week can mean progress if you put your mind to it, so being aware of what you eat and drink, as well as how strong and fast you are becoming and how long you can last at a high pace, should be part of your daily and weekly lives.
