Listen, I want all of you to begin thinking of your choices in a different way. (I know some of you may have to make "baby-steps" in this area, but I really hope you will do this one thing for yourselves!)
I've mentioned before that it may be helpful to compare your Fitness LifeStyle Plan to a Compass or a GPS, rather than a black and white, point "A" to point "B" is only acceptable outcome, way of thinking.
If you've never seen a GPS in a car operate, it goes something like this: because it communicates with satelites, it knows where you are (I know scarey, huh?)...you enter where you want to go, and the GPS calculates the shortest route to take you there. You begin driving and the GPS will say something like "turn left a half a mile ahead"...so you drive half a mile and turn right! Does the GPS make fun of you or put you down for 'being weak' or 'lacking inner-strength' or any of those things we tend to tell ourselves? Nope, the GPS simply says "recalculating" and gets you right back on track from where you now are.
We all know that beating ourselves up for making choices we later wish we hadn't, never really helps any way!
So let's start looking at our decisions simply as choices we make in the moment, that either take us toward our goals, or that take us temporarily away from our goals...and just start making as many of the "toward our goals" choices as we possibly can, given the fact that we have been given human minds and bodies, and that life will always throw challenges our way...as you hear so often today..."life happens"!
I'm just saying...there are always plenty of people out there willing to put you down...just don't let yourself be one of them!
Okay, enough philosophy...now get out there a sweat a little!!
