The Hidden Secret To Lasting Physical Change
"The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new. " | Socrates
One of the best most challenging journeys you'll ever go on is seeing what your body is able to do. Perhaps you are in shape, completely out of shape, or just expecting to lose some weight. Nonetheless, developing a body that you really can be proud, one that's healthy, and allows you to truly love every possible last tiny inch of it really is a dazzling journey to try.
So what's the key to making a lasting change with your body?
Consistency and commitment.
There's nothing else like coming to the table every single day and giving it your best shot. Your best effort must be yours and yours alone. Don't start comparing your journey to other journeys or else you'll become deeply discouraged and deterred. Instead, understand you are competing with yourself and yourself alone. Will there be times on your journey where you try and fail? Yes, many times. But every time you do, you should come back with a commitment to achieving something that you strongly want. Consistency will keep you in the game and on the field each day. Without it, you may suffer the the inevitable reality of many new years resolutioners who give up every single year on making the body of their dreams because they do not have the ability to keep on coming back repeatedly timeand again.
Commitment also comes to mind, though not the commitment you're possibly thinking about. In our world, we are fed this strong idea that everything must take place at the moment and if it does not happen now, it's not worth it. Your body is going to change throughout all the years, so why don't you make a lifetime dedication to staying healthy? Is that a marketable and sellable idea? Not so much. But is it something that would actually change the course of your life? Totally.
When you make a pledge to keeping your body healthy all throughout your whole life, you will ultimately reach whatever goal you wish. It is about seeing the big picture than merely the few months in front of you till summer. It is about developing something that you can be pleased with for all the years to come. For me, that new concept changed my life as I was able to ultimately hit my health goals after 12 years of fighting with my body image and food issues. But as soon as I changed my world view of what I was trying to achieve, everything I had wished for came to me. So try it on for size and see if it's working for you. Make a total dedication to staying healthy and watch how much your body will change in the short term too.
Bring some commitment and consistency to the table, in all sides of your life, and things will change significantly.
