Have you started on your quest for weight loss? Have you
made any progress yet? Have you taken any action at all
towards your goal for a better body?
Or are you going to "wait until next Monday" to start your
fitness plan.
There's a story about a frog. Now this frog wasn't
particularly smart. One day this frog fell into a big
barrel half full of cream, He was close to drowning, and
all the other frogs circled the top of the barrel and
laughed and taunted him.
But this frog was so dumb he thought they were cheering him
on, so he paddled faster and faster and faster until he
churned the cream into butter, and then he was able to hop
back out of the barrel. It's a great story I know!
What does this have to do with weight loss?
Well, maybe your not "ready" to lose weight, you don't know
what to do, you don't want to make a fool of yourself, you
don't want to....(fill in any excuse that you make up).
Whatever your level fitness or current circumstance - so
what!! Just get going.
I know one thing for sure, if you don't do anything, you're
not going to get anywhere. As the saying goes, if you keep
doing what you've always done you'll only get what you've
already got.
Even if you don't know what to do, the first step is to
find out what to do to maximize your weight loss. Maybe
that first step is to find a quality personal trainer or
fitness coach that can help you achieve your fitness goals
in a tenth the time as on your own.
Don't be like a scorpion I read about in South America. In
its aggressiveness on himself he will sting itself and die
of its own poison.
In other words don't ever quit your quest for fitness.
Don't ever quit!! (I said that again for emphasis.)
A torpedo/missile does not "think out" all its errors in
advance, and attempt to correct them in advance. It must
act first - start moving toward the goal (the enemy target)
- then correct any errors that may occur.
That's just like with weight loss. You may not start with
the "perfect" plan or that just right regimen. Just get
going and adjust as you learn more and find out what works
for you.
We need to focus on any and even the smallest improvement
toward overall fitness. Not the failures or what it has
taken to get those improvements.
Just keep going toward that dream or goal you believe in,
if you believe it that's all that counts, you don't need to
convince anyone else of your goal for it to be your goal of
weight loss and for it to become a reality.
