WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE SUCCESSFUL?
First off…I got new hair! LOL I am digging the darker shorter cut!
So when I first started I had all the excuses as to why I couldn't get started in the first place. It was exhausting really! If I would have just stopped and got in and got out, there would have been less worry about it. It never failed, after all said and done, I would say, well...that wasn't so bad! It is like seriously Rebecca...you wasted almost 20-30 minutes or even minutes procrastinating!
I was reading the 10X Rule and believe me this guy lays it all out! He is one determined cookie to take massive action! He said there is a difference between successful people vs. non-successful people!
Whatever you consider being successful is up to you. Completely up to you! If you want 15 lbs. gone and accomplish it then you were successful. If you want to schedule MORE family time and stick by it and, then you are successful!
No matter what the topic is, the steps are all the same. It is called TAKING ACTION!! I know...it seems so easy, but why do so many fail at this or even struggle to get started?
I have learned that successful people aren't afraid of the work, but ONLY focus on the reward or the outcome that will benefit them. Non-successful people on the other hand, over think it...over plan it, over analyze it, and seriously just talk themselves right out of it.
He had a competition going on and said let's see how many phone calls you can make in 30 minutes. His team started to plan who would make the phone calls, what they would say, how they would close the deal, and so forth. He on the other hand just started making phone calls and got 28 phone calls done in 30 minutes!! They got like 10.
So see...sometimes attaching a FEELING to your wasted time, only makes it worse and hinders your success! If you stick with your guns and just go all in, then you will see results. WHY? You are no longer letting FEAR take over and you stop wasting time!
What do you want to be known for? Someone who was a go getter or someone who just rolled with the punches? He claims that rolling with punches is the NORMAL way and honestly BORING way of living!
He knows he is needed for a higher purpose and just rolling with the punches will not get him there. He must take MASSIVE ACTION!
That is how we either fail or succeed at our health and fitness journey! If we waste time with our feelings of WHY we shouldn't work out, or I DON’T WANT TOO OR FEEL LIKE IT…then we are just like we was before...which isn't cool!
BUT...if we take action and just not over think it then it gets done! It is truly that simple. Making this harder than what it needs to be is so over rated! I mean you can't say you want change if you don't embrace it!
Successful people strictly focus on their reward and not the steps it takes to get there while the non-successful people stress, worry, and over analyze the actual steps. Hence why NOTHING gets done. If you focus on your WHY, your reason and do one day at a time...YOU WILL GET RESULTS! Stop putting the pressure on yourself to be this perfect person, it will take time, but giving up is not the answer my friend. Trust me...it isn't!
When you finally hit success, you can look back on your journey, like I have and say WOW...my path was hard...but I freaking made it!
My goal and hope for you is that you become capable of doing something extraordinary for yourself! WHY? Because there is a greatness within you my friend...please find it...and UNLEASH THE POTENTIAL WITHIN!
