Focus on this and magic starts to happen

by | Lifestyle

I’m here with an important motivational message for you!
There’s an old Japanese proverb … “Fall down seven times, get up eight.”

No matter how many times you fail, you get up and try again.

If you’re having a tough time… you’ve missed a workout (or two), or struggling with new healthy habits… remember this: Don’t dwell on your past struggles. Learn from them… and FOCUS FORWARD!

No one’s perfect. 

It’s important to remember that you don’t have ANY CONTROL over what has already happened. Wasting time stressing over it or beating yourself up doesn’t get you anywhere.

👉But you *do* have control over what you do next.

Ask yourself: What’s the next best action you can take?

And then take that action.

The past is in the past. You can’t change it, but you can control what happens next.  Keep getting back up!

The “I’ll start in January” excuse …

This mindset can make-or-break your results – especially this time of year. It has to do with “either/or” thinking … and in a nutshell, it works like this: Either you’re 100% on track… or you’re completely off.  If you’ve ever said, “I’ll start in the New Year,” or “I’ll start on Monday,” chances are you were caught in this kind of thinking.
