If you can’t do this, how are you going to
go far in life? Or help others? And what does this have to do with health and
fitness? Well it has everything to do with it.
In order to make healthy sustainable
changes you need to make a commitment with yourself. That is exactly what Nikki
had done for herself the day her and I sat down at Starbucks one Friday
afternoon as we laid out her short-term health goals. This one small step we took to set up her
goals was the beginning of a push that will continue to push harder and farther
as Nikki moves through her journey to her weight loss goals.
The small habits that we begin to develop
as we make our way toward our goals are the most important part of the process.
Never underestimate their power! This is the true test to see if you are really
committed to your new lifestyle you are creating for yourself.
We are all on our own journeys as we
navigate through life, all at varying levels but this one thing is true for all
of us. This is how we can all relate to one another and understand. Our ability
to commit to our inner word and do what makes us truly happy and feel alive at the
end of the day. This is not an easy task by any means. There are days where you
just feel like quitting and giving up, but that inner voice, your integrity it
comes in and pushes you right out of that hole with a force so strong you take
another leap forward. Nikki exemplified this the day we did the grouse grind,
her first fitness goal completed!
I believe a huge part of our inability to
commit is due to the culture we live in today. It has taught us in many ways
that we need to reach “perfection” and quite frankly what does that even mean?
Who came up with the meaning of what this perfect body is supposed to even look
like? There is no such thing!
As you embark on your fitness journey take
pride in every positive step you take to reach your goals. Love your inner
strength and remove all thoughts of doubt and shame from your mind to make room
for all those positive affirmations of success.
The knowledge and skills you will develop
along the way is the integrity and dignity to accomplish anything you want in
life.
Yours in health,
Emilia
