The secret to consistency is your realest "WHY"

Do you keep hitting the same wall and falling off track out of frustration? Instead of waiting for motivation to strike again, consider a different approach. One that shifts your mindset from "I have to" to "I get to."

​

We know that consistency is key. That's not the groundbreaking part. INTENTION is the game changer! Neuroscience has shown through functional MRI brain imaging and research studies, just how physiologically powerful thoughts are. Focused and meaningful intentions yield results. Did you know that thinking about someone you love while performing an exercise, enables your body to generate greater neurological strength? The opposite is true too; when you think of something or someone that takes away your confidence or fills you with self-doubt, all that strength seems to escape your body and the same exercise is nearly impossible. The purpose we attach to everything we do is rooted in something so foundational to us that our cells respond in accordance with our beliefs. 

 

3 months in is the real test and the question you need to ask yourself when you start to lose steam, is, "Why?" The more focused your vision, the more successful you'll be at breaking through thresholds, forcing adaptation and maintaining your growth with sustainable lifestyle practices. Be present with the journey; don't get caught focusing solely on the future, celebrate your ability daily to move towards who and what matters to you. Get out of your head and into your life. 

​

The reason you take care of your health has to go deeper than just "confidence" or "pain." How would your life change if you were stronger, calmer and more energized? What's difficult now that you wish was easier? How would you spend your time if you weren't limited by pain? Who would you be with? Where would you go? How would you feel if you were no longer struggling? 

 

Be honest with yourself. Get to your deepest truths. That's the buy-in you need to stick to the program. That's your focus to push through thresholds and make meaningful changes that elevate your quality of life.
