What do I Want?

"We all want progress, but if you're on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; in that case, the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive" -C. S. Lewis

What do I want to accomplish?

Why do I want to accomplish this?

What are the requirements?

What are the constraints?

I’ve been in the personal training business for over 30 years. I’ve had clients who are very successful, and I have clients who’ve made minimal changes.

What is the difference in the two groups?

Thoughts

That’s right – thoughts.

It’s not a slow metabolism – it’s not gluten intolerance – it’s not carb sensitivity – it’s not that you don’t have enough time.

It’s our thoughts

The reason we don’t change for long is because we have a set of beliefs that keep us who we are – not who we want to be.

Think about it – everything you’re doing right now is a reflection of your thoughts and beliefs.
If you attempt a new diet with the same belief system, guess what? It’s only matter of time before you return to your old patterns of behavior because of your belief system.

We don’t do what we know, we do what we believe.

If you’re looking to change something don’t look for external fixes, you hold the keys to success in the palm of your hand – actually, the secret is between your ears.

Nothing changes if nothing changes.

If the changes occur internally, the externals will follow.
