“None of us can change our yesterdays, but all of us can change our tomorrows”
Colin Powell, Former secretary of State of the US
Most people who never succeed with the health and fitness plans usually dwell too much on their past experiences.
If you go through life with something heavy weighing you down emotionally, you’re always going to struggle to move at the speed you’re really capable of.
If you hang on to the past too much, negativity and doubt will influence all of your future decisions.
Anger, resentment, hurt, fear, regret are all emotions that will tie you up to the past, instead of letting you achieve great things in the future.
Resentment is a particularly destructive one you often see in people.
Here a great quote from Nelson Mandela
“Resentment is like drinking poison and then hoping it will kill your enemies”
If anyone had reason to resent people, surely it was him?!!
2012 is where we are right now and the best time to let go of your past mistakes and unfortunate experiences, and move forward to all the possibilities that a healthy lifestyle offers.
If you drunk too much alcohol in 2011 and past years, then training sensibly and eating well will encourage you to drink less, get your body on track and energy back in your life. You will be improving yourself and others who had to put up with your drinking in the past.
If you smoke too much now, and promise yourself that you will exercise SOME DAY once you give the fags up, then stop making excuses right now!! Exercising and eating well will give you every incentive to give this destructive habit up once and for all.
If you were really overweight in 2011 and years before maybe, use 2012 as the year you’re going to finally do it, and the great news is that im here to help you the whole way!!!
Whatever your situation, leave the past behind, start with a clean slate and lets see how much you can achieve in 2012!!!
