I know that sounds selfish, but sometimes you have to be!
There are days I set an alarm to workout just to snooze through it until I have left myself just enough time to avoid my exercise routine. Just being honest! There are other days I workout out of an obligation to my role as a Beachbody Coach, because I know you are watching me. But there are days that put in my DVD, push play and sweat it out just because I want to, just for me.
Maybe one of the greatest lessons I am learning and want to share with you is that if you take this journey of health and fitness do it for one reason and one reason alone, FOR YOU! If you are sweating and working for the approval of someone else, then you are working for the wrong reasons. If you are sweating and working to get someone else's attention, then you are working for the wrong reasons. But if you are sweating your guts off because you want to make a difference in YOU, then you are working for the right reasons.
What I have learned is that if you do it for any reason other than for the yourself, then you will eventually quit. While changes may garner more attention that attention is not as fulfilling as feeling good about who you are. While your new shape make gain you approval, that approval will never be as fulfilling as being happy with who you are. Each day as you push play and become drenched in perspiration find fulfillment in who you are becoming. Know that it is a journey you are on and each day brings you closer to your goal of becoming the You that YOU desire to be. Do it for YOU and nobody else!
