Daily motivation Tips – What is your excuse?

If you have ever done a fitness drive, be it 10, 30 or 90 days the most important aspect of it very probably is the reasons why you failed or succeeded. The key to any short period intensive drive is how you transition into the long term plan. The end of plan review is the chance to source key information to produce long term results whatever level of success you did or did not attain during the challenge.

If your last attempt failed miserably then before you can get to the real information about why you failed you will have to get past your excuses about why think it went wrong. The problem with excuses is they hide the real reasons you didn’t get results. This is a crime because there is a solution for the real reasons you didn’t get results but there is not for an excuse. Yes, I could give you ways around your excuse but as it is just there to hide another reason it won’t help much.

Whether you said you did not have enough time, lacked motivation, you are weak willed or suchlike try to dig below this level. If you have no motivation because you use food as an emotional support then write this down. This real reason has a solution, find a non food or drink related way to handle emotions. Most people simply cite that they have no willpower and next time they will try a bit harder.

Mind body change exercise

Get to the bottom of why you did not get results on your last fitness drive. Drop all the excuses and seek out the underlying reasons (Hint – It is not because you are some evil monster).
With the problem now identified you now need to focus some time on looking at other people who had this exact same problem who overcame the challenge.
If you had outstanding success in your fitness challenge review what is different to your pre challenge behaviours. Spend time reviewing if everything you are doing is a sustainable long term behaviour. Then take a moment to predict the number one thing that will knock you off track. Create some solutions for when this event comes around.
