This month we’re tackling a big topic: getting rid of what’s standing between you and your goals.
This could be what you put in your body … what you focus on with your thoughts and beliefs … and anything else that’s cluttering up your fitness journey.
The first step is probably the hardest …
It’s getting REAL and identifying exactly what’s holding you back.
It’s a challenge because we can get into autopilot with our everyday life … and we don’t even notice what’s in our way!
I have an exercise you can do to help.
- Grab your favorite pen and a journal – or open a Google doc – and start writing.
(Pro tip: The words you will write are for YOUR EYES ONLY and you can throw away/delete what you write later if you want!)
- Make a list of ALL of the reasons you think you haven’t been able to achieve your goals.
Seriously, write down everything!
Maybe you hate getting up early … don’t like “healthy” foods … feel like you don’t have willpower or motivation … feel overwhelmed … feel alone in your journey … or maybe there are factors outside of your control.
Or maybe you think your goals are for other people – not for you.
Let loose and write it ALL down.
- Read through your list and look for common themes:
> time factors
> mindset/motivation issues
> confidence
> support/accountability, etc. - Get into problem-solving mode and TAKE ACTION!
- Not enough time?
Get creative. Find ways to sneak fitness/health into the spare moments of your life. A coach can help with this, too - Mindset issues?
Surround yourself with motivation – read self-development books, watch inspiring YouTube videos, and keep a journal to track your progress. - Don’t have support?
Find it! Think of the health/fitness-minded people in your circle and enlist them, search for an online community, and/or work with a coach (a real game changer)
**Imagine… how great will it feel to finally ditch the obstacles between you and your goals?**
INCREDIBLY GREAT.
And we’re here for you if you don’t want to do it alone!
