Getting In Shape In 2009
To help you finally get in shape in 2009, here are 5 secrets goal-achievers use to succeed:
1. Keep your goals PRIVATE.
If someone isn't as committed to their health or fitness, they might feel negative about you trying to do your best. And you might get some bad energy sent your way for trying to lose weight or get in shape. Don't let this happen.
2. Decide your reason for achieving this goal.
If you want to drop 20 extra pounds, think about why. And dont think this is obvious stuff either. What you need to know is what personally motivates you and gets you emotionally involved. Is it because you want to look better? Have more energy? Attract a new mate? Re-attract and old one? Figure it out.
3. Use this reason to keep you going when things get rough.
Whenever it gets tough maintaining your new habits day after day or you start to prioritize other things, keep this reason in mind. Focus on it and you'll be back in action in no time.
4. Don't do this alone.
Your habits reflect the habits of those around you. Getting around healthy people will make achieving your goals easier. Being around unhealthy people gets you up for failure.
5. If you miss a few days, don't pout.
If you don't exercise as consistently for a few days, relax. If you eat a few too many cheat meals, don't worry. Feeling bad won't do any good. Just keep moving forward and you'll be all the better for it.
Arm yourself with these five strategies and youll get halfway through 2009, look back, and realize youve transformed your body for the better. - 17274
