3 Months In to 2010

We are a quarter into 2010 and pretty soon summer will be in full swing.  After that there will only be 6 months left in the year.

Time flies when you’re having fun!

How are you doing with regards to the goals you set at the beginning of the year?  Or maybe you’re in the middle of goals you started last year.

Are you on track?

Focus on the end result!

Are you looking at gauges to see where you can make things better?

It’s very easy to get side tracked with everyday life, politics, work, etc.

But stay focused, stay the course. It will be worth it.

We are definitely a society of “want it” gotta “have it” now! But, many things take time.

Weight loss and fitness goals are no different.

If you haven’t already, set some goals to get your fitness and nutrition on track. If you’re in the middle of your goal, keep going.  At the very least, small changes to your daily activities can produce significant changes and results down the road.

Distractions will come up and it will always be easy to make excuses and start tomorrow.  But tomorrow never comes.

All we have is today!

It’s the laser guide focus, disciplined, strong willed people that will accomplish what they started.

The Power of Focus

I believe and have faith in you.

I believe that if you imagined accomplishing a goal, you have what it takes to get there or you never would have had the thought.

Take some time, reflect on what you’ve started or want to get started. Create a start and an end date.  Work backwards from the end date to today and add steps to complete it.

This is the beginning.  As you work towards the goal and time passes you will make corrections and fix aspects of the goal process to streamline and make it work better for you.

Kris, American Idol and YOU!

Kris, Wins American Idol!

This is what I’ve heard several times this morning. It was plastered on the televisions at one of the corporate classes I taught too.

Some people had such huge smiles on their faces. You would have thought they won the lottery, landed a promotion or happy to see me teaching class. :)

But, none of this was what caused such happiness in these people’s lives. It was, Kris on American Idol that caused such feelings of great joy.

SO, what does this mean for you and me?

NOTHING!

Absolutely, positively nothing!

Yes, it’s great that Kris (I only know his name because everyone keeps saying he won) won American Idol.

He had a goal, set his mind up to win, took the necessary “action steps” to see it to completion and WON!

But just think, while you sat on the couch in front of the television night after night waiting, watching and maybe even calling in a few votes for the show, your life, your goals, were pushed aside so you could watch someone else accomplish theirs.

If you took half the enthusiasm I witnessed this morning and applied it to your life goals, just imagine how much farther you’d be.

It’s great to see others succeed. If you can show gratitude towards them for their accomplishments, you will be in the right mindset to achieve/receive yours.

But, remember, you have to take action!

Finish Strong!
