Pretty amazing progress is within all our grasp.
You must have heard some people who have made it big in life say that as long as you really focus on what you’re doing, what you’re trying to achieve, and the most important thing, YOU NEVER GIVE UP, then you can achieve absolutely anything you put your mind to.
If you haven’t got to where you want to go yet, and if you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you will probably be honest enough to admit where you’re going wrong.
You will have probably had wonderful periods of training and eating, you will probably have had some mediocre periods of eating too, and nobody can expect you to be wonderful all the time. But as long as you keep showing up all the time, or most of the time, then all good things await you. You have to trust me on that.
The more experienced you get, hopefully the down times should get less and the good times should form the majority of the year.
Each and every one of you tell me you feel lousy when you don’t train or eat badly, and especially when you do both.
All of this comes down to self-confidence or more likely, lack of self-confidence at times. Im not expecting you to be this super confident super achiever type of person. What I am expecting though is to show up in your workouts, when you make your big shop of the week, I wouldn’t expect to see white bread, biscuits, crisps, oven chips etc in your shopping trolley.
I’d expect a certain standard and that is very achievable for all of you.
The chocolate, crisps and wine stops in the petrol station during the week are not acceptable if you want to be in shape, they’re really not. It’s a free country for sure and we have a choice on how we look and feel. You know how to do it by now, you know that faddy diets will eventually drive you crazy and overweight, you know that moving is far better than sitting and you know the wonderful feeling of getting fitter and fitter.
So lets do this thing! Aim to improve every week but if you don’t EVERY week, then that’s no problem, but I guarantee if you show up all the time for your workouts, you take pride in your food shopping and what it contains, you don’t drink alcohol in the week, GOOD and even GREAT things will happen to you throughout every week, every month for the rest of your life.
Are you going to stick it this time? Or are we going to keep having this conversation?
TIME TO CHANGE RIGHT NOW!
