Given Up Yet?

Hey everyone, I hope that this entry finds you all well. So it's February, and studies say that by now, 3 out of 4 people have already given up on their New Year's resolutions to workout. Have you given up yet? Are you still being consistent with your workouts and your diet? Are you going to be like everyone else, or are you finally going to make a difference? Don't get me wrong, I am all for New Year's resolutions. A clean slate is always a very nice thing, and I am all for whatever motivates someone to exercise. However, what does drive me crazy, is how quickly people give up. Listen, nothing comes easy. If you went and talked to a panel of successful people, I guarantee that a common thread for success is hard work and a don't say die attitude. I have been fortunate enough to train many successful people. As I have eluded to in earlier entries, I try to learn as much as I can from my clients, all of whom I admire. What have I found? Hard work! Discipline! Consistency! Motivation! All of the same traits that it takes to get into shape. Stop making excuses. Stop feeling sorry for yourself. Stop waiting for things to line up before you get serious. There is never going to be the perfect time. Stop waiting, make it happen. The only one stopping you is you, not your husband/wife, kids, etc. Get motivated, and get it done. I wish you all the best in health and happiness, Your friend in health, Eric www.everybodyspersonaltrainer.com
