“Change Your Mind, Change Your Life.”
We’ve all heard this saying, but how does it figure into weight loss? Your mindset, your state of mind, is extremely important when it comes to achieving lasting success. Cravings, motivation, desire to workout…it’s all tied to your thought life.
Challenge Goal:
The goal of this month’s challenge is to get you thinking past just food and exercise. You have to adopt the right mindset to be successful. The fun starts on January 7th.
2017 is right around the corner. This is the time of year when everyone is focused on re-starting their diets, cutting out junk food and hitting the gym. The issue is that we often just jump on latest or most popular bandwagon of choice; challenges, diet plans and boot camps, etc. We do this without first doing the work: The work of figuring out what factors and habits got us to where we are and what our real, long term goals are. That work requires that we take the time to investigate our existing thought patterns so that we can create new ones.
New thoughts, New Habits, New Lifestyle.
There are so many aspects of our thought life, habits and overall mindset that affect our ability to commit to a new, healthy lifestyle. Along with cleaning up our fridges, we must clean up our minds.
