Getting in Shape Update

Posted on 10/31/2009 by

I’ve learned that I should do, observe, correct without any emotion. This is not with just eating, but with anything I’m trying to master. I first do whatever it is I’m trying to get better at. Then I observe how I did without emotion. Did I miss the mark? Did I get close to where I want to be? Did I do part of it wrong and get the other part right? I evaluate my attempt this time. And then I make corrections. What can I do differently next time to make it work even better? What did I do right that I should continue to do next time? You get the idea. By taking the emotion out and just doing it, observing how well I did, and then correcting, I tend to get a little better each time. That’s much better than beating myself up about it.

Getting in Shape Day 5

Posted on 10/29/2009 by

I think I have to make my weight and body image a non-issue. How do I do that? I don’t think ignoring the problem is the answer. I need to take action, even if it’s to get my mind moving in the right direction. I think, for me, it’s more about taking the emotion out of it. I have to get it set in my mind that my lifestyle must change so that this is a non-issue. I am now an active person. I MUST be. I have to trust the process. I have to build these things into my day and not stress about them. Just accept that these are things I must do like brush my teeth or go to the bathroom. It’s just something that has to be done. I must quit making a big deal about it and just do it without even thinking. Continue reading →

Getting in Shape – Day 4

Posted on 10/28/2009 by

Today, I feel like crap! Remind me why I’m doing this??? …

Focusing on my body is not fun for me. I can think of a million other things that I would rather be doing. Making my blog about health and fitness was not in my grand scheme of things. But, when I started trying to figure out where I should start to help others be successful in their business, I had to face the facts. The thing that has helped me make changes in my life in the past has been to gain more self-confidence and more self-control by taking control of my body through focusing on wellness. …

Today I can focus on the pain I have and still do the exercises or I can focus on the future I know I have and do the exercises. Either way, I’ll do the exercises. But, which way will cause the exercises to bring me the most benefit? I CHOOSE to focus on the bright future ahead and the more fit body I will have because I KNOW focusing on that will give me much more energy and enthusiasm while I exercise.

Getting In Shape Update – Day 3

Posted on 10/27/2009 by

I was really sore yesterday. I was amazed that just walking and Yoga could make me that sore! I guess that’s a good thing. I felt as if it must be working :) At least until I got dressed to go to my office in Nashville. Then I felt fatter than ever. I started to get a little depressed. It just doesn’t seem to work as quickly as I would like for it to work. I also know and believe that as long as I feel fat, I will not get the momentum and energy headed in the right direction. I will get whatever I focus on, so if I focus on what I don’t want, that’s exactly what I will get.

I’m also excited about the changes I’m going to see in my business! I KNOW that since I will be feeling better and will have more energy, every part of my life will benefit, including my business! Continue reading →
