At some point...It's ALL mental!

Quick note on this topic...and will really provide more of my thoughts on this at a later date.

But how often do we hear 'It's all mental'?

Today I did a 'Cardio Recovery' workout. Now had it said 'Intense Cardio', my mindset would have been mentally prepared for the workout that it truly is. This 'recovery' was tough, but my mind was not ready for it at all. I was ready to be slow & lazy...this had my hip flexors burning, my shoulders burning...sweat was still drippin'!

So think about this today: How often do we assume the 'truth' of something just by the name? How often do we fulfill the negative words that we are told daily? How often do we believe those that tell us 'we can't'?

It's ALL mental! Start today by telling yourself that you ARE successful, you are a hardworker, you will achieve great things, you will lose the weight you want, you can dream, you can ______________.

Fill in your own blank, believe in yourself,

and set the positive momentum in your mind, in motion!!!!

"I CAN'T"

(Disclaimer: I'm going to hammer you today...are you up for it? It's going to make you strong if you hang in there with me!)

I DON'T UNDERSTAND:

Do you ever say this? Do you tell yourself this? Others? Now if it's what you have to say to 'protect' your time for your family that's one thing. But if it's your response to setting goals or reaching goals, I'm here to tell you that YOU CAN!

A couple weeks ago, a friend confided in me that they 'just can't lose weight'. A friend of my husband said that they 'just can't eat healthy'. I just don't understand that way of thinking, but I believe it's that belief that is holding so many people back from achieving their goals & dreams.

What is it that you can't do? What is stopping you?

Figure out what you want to do...then figure out what is stopping you. It may be YOU stopping YOU!

REFUSE TO LET..........

• circumstances
• bad habits
• weaknesses
• addiction
• relationships
• procastination

                                           ............STOP YOU!


I'm here to tell you that YOU CAN:

• lose weight
• get your health back
• exercise
• get out of debt
• save your marriage
• have self-discipline
• discipline your kids
• be successful
• change
• love again

The list goes on and on! What do you need to hear that you can do?

Do me a favor...list out all of your cant's: 'I can't ___________'. Figure out what it is that you don't think you can do. Then write out the opposite: "I CAN ____________". Then take a black marker and cross out each 'I can't' while saying, "YES I CAN_____________".

It's all about believing in yourself, believing YOU CAN!  I believe you can. It's humanly possible to have self-discipline, forgive, pay off credit cards, give up unhealthy foods, or get moving/exercising!!!!

You can do it!!!!! Whatever it is, you can! Now say it - YES I CAN!
