Thinking Positively
The one common thread that ties the mental, physical, and nutritional aspects together when we’re trying to improve our fitness is thought—conscious thought, not acting on impulse or out of habit. Too many people, fall into the trap of just doing the same things day in and day out—I call it “sleepwalking” through life—and then complaining or finding excuses about why their bodies or lives aren’t better.
Bottom line: a large part of how you look and feel today is a sum total of what you’ve been doing up to this point, so if you don’t change what you’re doing, you’ll keep looking and feeling how you do right now. If you’re happy with how you are now, then that’s great; otherwise, it’s time to start taking control of your life and your body and stop sleepwalking. Think about everything you do each day—what you eat, how much activity you get, and so on—and start making changes for the better, no excuses.
One of the first changes I made was to start thinking positively. Believe in yourself and you can accomplish anything. You achieve what you believe. If you can’t envision yourself with a great body living a great life, you’ll probably never get there, but if you keep that image in your head every day and work hard to achieve it, you’ll probably be surprised by how quickly it turns into reality.
