When you are in the middle of a workout and it starts to get hard, what do you do? Say, “Well, I guess I’ve reached my limit today,” and stop. Ask yourself, “Why is this so hard for me? I’m in terrible shape. Why do I even try?” Tell yourself, “Bring it on. This is where I SHINE and when it counts the most!” Here’s another example: Over the past few days, you’ve been swapping out your not-so-healthy snack with healthier choices. Suddenly you are hit with a MAJOR craving for cookies — but you’re not even that hungry. What do you do? Say, “I’m just going to eat the cookies anyway because life is short and who cares.” Ask yourself, “Why am I so weak? There must be something wrong with me to get all of these cravings.” Tell yourself, “I’ve got this! This is a chance to show my old cookie habit who the real boss is around here!” Here’s a sneaky secret about both of those scenarios that very few coaches are willing to talk about. Making changes – even healthy changes — can be HARD sometimes. It’s because you’re moving out of your comfort zone … which is a good thing! “You never change your life until you step out of your comfort zone; change begins at the end of your comfort zone.” ― Roy T. Bennett It’s a sign you’re making REAL progress. Not just physically, but also mentally. And things WILL get easier. And easier. And easier.
