What’s the last time you did something the first time?
A new client signed up with us a few months ago because her digestive system wasn’t what it used to be.
She KNEW they needed to do something. And rather than just letting “life happen” she decided to take control and do something about it.
But (she would totally agree with me on this), when she first started, she wasn’t that into it, even when I hauled out all my favourite “fun” coach tricks!
Getting her workout done was just another thing to check off her to-do list.
BUT … that all changed when one day we started talking about how much calmer her digestive system would be IF she started moving.
I could see how excited she was getting, so we started focusing her workouts/habits on building up her stamina so she could do more of the thing she loved… and she was on FIRE!
This is the power of having a goal that gets you excited – of something that adds value and fun to your life, and that has meaning!
What is ONE THING that’s a challenge for you – but that you’d LOVE to be able to do?
Let your mind go and come up with something fun.
It could be anything: “Run a 5k” “Walk down the beach wearing a 2-piece bathing suit” “climb a mountain” “shock your doctor with some amazing lab results” “shock your partner with a photo shoot.” You choose.
This is one of my favourite ways to turn new healthy habits into a real LIFESTYLE change… because these are the goals that directly impact your quality of life.
The trick is to choose things that get you FIRED UP and EXCITED …
Because this can spur you on to be more active … upgrade your food intake for more energy and vitality … and open yourself up to POSSIBILITY.
There’s an old saying, “When was the last time you did something for the first time?”
Today, just think about that.
You don’t have to commit to anything (yet, haha).
Let your mind explore those “what ifs” that have been in the back of your head over the past couple of years.
Because if not now … then WHEN?
I’d love to hear about YOUR goals … let’s talk about it over in the FACEBOOK GROUP
Let's start something new today.
Make it an amazing day,
Marcia Howard
