• Because of you…

    Because of you

    Have you ever had one person in your life that made a huge difference? Maybe they were able to guide you down the right path, supported you when you needed it most, or kept giving their message of belief, loving yourself, and being true to who you are, that you didn’t give up because that one person was always there?

    For me that is two people. The first is Shaun T. Yes that crazy trainer on tv that yells at you to dig deeper! He inspires me every day. If you have every heard him speak (see below for just one inspirational message), you get inspired and motivated to take on your day. He was the reason I continued to push every single day to losing 35 pounds. He is the reason I continue to push through the workouts when I don’t feel like it, when I am hurting, when I don’t feel like I can go anymore.

    20150526_095026The second person is Jessica. She is my coach, best friend, mentor, and the person I go to when I need help or the tough love. She was the one who reached out to me (as a complete stranger) and told me about coaching. I had no clue what it was and I was a huge skeptic. I knew I loved Shaun T and his programs and she believed in me that I could do anything when I didn’t believe in myself. She has been able to accomplish so much in her business and I am so excited to be following in her footsteps. Our team, the positive environment, and the constant support and love is what keeps me going every day. I love being able to pay it forward and inspire and empower others the way Jessica and Shaun have inspired me.

     

    I am looking for those who:

    • want to inspire and empower others and to have others say “Because of you, I didn’t give up”. 
    • are ready to work on their fitness goals
    • may want to earn an extra income or get a discount on the products they are using for their results
    • are positive people and want to help others
    • won’t accept defeat when times are hard

    Is this you? If so, fill out the form below!

     

     

  • 3 Ways to Motivate Yourself to Workout

    shoes.usagerightsI was sitting watching my daughter play softball and listening to some personal development.

    It’s so crazy listening to how many people give up on themselves before they see success.

    I wish more people were like my daughters team.

    They don’t give up until the game is over and even then, they learn from their mistakes and are determined to beat them next time.

    They keep going even though they are losing.

    So many people want to settle for average.

    I think it’s safe to assume that we’ve all been there.

    Even when it comes to working out…we have good intentions on getting up and pushing play and then the morning comes. We hit that snooze button a thousand and one times. We drag our feet and we don’t feel like doing much of anything, let alone working out.

    I’ve been in the health and fitness industry for many years and the thing I hear the most is “I don’t have any motivation.”

    I wish there was one magic button that would cure all, but the truth is, there isn’t.

    It all boils down to making a few minor adjustments and doing little things to set yourself up for success. It’s about working with your lack of motivation, rather than against it.

    You can start with these three things:

    1. Put Your Clothes Out – Yep. The night before get your workout clothes all ready to go for the next morning.
    2. Workout in the Morning – I can hear some of you saying “But I’m not a morning person and I have no motivation!” That’s why you do it in the morning. The more hours that pass you by, the more you’re lack of motivation will kick in and have its way with you.
    3. Grab an Index Card – What’s your WHY? WHY do you want to workout in the first place? How bad do you want it? Write down 1-3 why’s and pin in up where you can see it every day.

    Like I said, we’ve all been there. I have my days when I’m tired and have zero motivation.

    But here’s the biggest “trick” of all, I suck it up and do it anyway.

    We don’t have to “overcome” lack of motivation (I’m not sure if that’s even possible to do completely), but you can decide to do it anyway.
