2010 has begun!  In a hurry to get in shape?

You’ve already made your first mistake.

If 2009 wasn’t an active year, your pace should be slow and steady in 2010.  Consistency is the way to achieve ALL your fitness goals.

Pushing yourself might just be your undoing.  Do you know that the first sign of heart disease is often a heart attack?

So, what is your motivation for wanting to get in better shape?  Do you have major health concerns, a family history of heart disease, or do you just want to look better this year?

Your motive for getting in shape might drive you, that’s not a bad thing.  Just don’t make immediate results be the measure of your success.  Whether you’re hoping to look better, feel better or both, the secret is to commit to being active for the rest of your life.

“Why Is Physical Fitness So Important?”

Hey, being active is FUN, and it feels really good!

“Exercise is fun?”

First off …. banish the word “exercise” from your vocabulary, at least for the purpose of goal setting.  Being active really is fun, and if you can shift your paradigm to embrace that, you are much more likely to be successful at making daily activity a lasting part of your life.

Just being active every single day IS success.  It is measurable!  Keep a journal of how you feel and the thoughts you are thinking each day.

You will notice that your thoughts will be lighter and more positive as you get moving and let all your stiff rigidity melt away.

When you are inflexible and rigid in your life you stifle your creativity and harm your relationships with others.  That isn’t hard to see.

What you may not be noticing is that the stiffness in your body is harming your creativity and your relationship with yourself.

It’s hard to love yourself when you are ignoring your needs and suffering the consequences.  Get active and your body will love you for it.

“Why Is Physical Fitness So Important?”

Activity and self care nurture self love.

“Exercise is loving myself?”

Yes it is!  And I told you to banish that word! When you love yourself you can change your world!

I challenge you to give yourself the gift of activity!  Let’s change the world one person at a time ….

…… starting with YOU!

With a little patience, you will watch a brand-new-better YOU unfold in 2010!

Knowing your limits is the secret to eliminating them.

How does a year without limits sound?

Get busy getting fit, and get out of your box!

Get fit, and the SKY is the limit in 2010!
