I've got a question for you:
Are you regularly just crushing your goals - or are you like most people, getting crushed instead?
Overwhelmed, misdirected energy and poor planning are a few of the cornerstones of failure - but the biggest reason we fail?
MINDSET!
Yup. When they say, “IT’S ALL IN YOUR HEAD!”... they’re right!
Looking at research recently for one of my past mentor's upcoming book on the science behind mindsets; it sets the stage for positive, lasting change - and mindsets that prepare you to fail - before you even start.
There’s a lot that goes into setting yourself up for success with a positive growth mindset.
Your first action step: If You Do NOTHING ELSE, Do This: Stop Lying to Yourself
We tell ourselves mean, nasty lies every day. Right now, think about the untruths you’ve told yourself this week.
· “You don’t deserve to be thin/fit/whatever!”
· “No one likes you.”
· “You can’t do it!”
· “You’re not enough/not good enough.”
I might know all of my clients personally - and I can tell you this: EVERY ONE OF THOSE MESSAGES IS A LIE. And every time you utter and think it, your physical and emotional bodies believe it. Your cells believe it. Your immune system believes it. Your metabolism believes it.
Every time you’re tempted to think a lie, replace it with a truth:
· “I’m trying hard every day!”
· “I’m enough!”
· “I’ve got this!”
· “I can do this!”
· “I’m close to achieving my goals!”
Your body and brain are listening and reacting to everything you think and utter. Give ‘em the good stuff and you’ll set yourself up for SUCCESS.
Where you mind goes your body will follow!
I've got your back!
Your coach always,
