Today is a GREAT day

Today is a great day. The past is in the past and the future is perfect. How is that for positive thinking? It doesn’t matter what is going on in your life now because you can always change what you don’t like. Well, it’s time to get to work. Today is YOUR day and it was made specifically for YOU. What are you going to do with it?

If it is cloudy today the sun will come up tomorrow. If you are sad today the brilliance of your potential will make you happy tomorrow. You can take solace in that fact.

If your fitness level is not what you want it to be you know that all you have to do is make a plan, do it and the results will come. If it is to be it is up to me. That’s breaking it down to the most simple.

Dr. Seuss’ “Oh, The Places You Will Go” is one of the greatest books of all time. Here is what he has to say about your results:

"Will you succeed? Yes, you will indeed. (98 3/4% guaranteed.)"

I agree. Do your best and you will get the results that you want (and deserve!). Stay positive and you WILL succeed! Now I will conclude today with more of the great philosopher Dr. Seuss: (live his words!!!)

“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.”

Decide where to go and just do it!!

Beleive....

Believe in your self. So many people that I meet on a daily basis just don’t believe in there selves. They show up saying, “I can’t” or “I won’t” or “it’s too hard” or, you get the point. Most people are defeated by themselves before they ever step into the batters box. Don’t live your life that way. Believe in yourself and what you are capable.

Did you know that Thomas Jefferson found time to write the Declaration of Independence, be Governor of Virginia, ambassador to France and started his own college? In his free time he was president of the United States. All this without the internet, cars, running water, and text messaging. It’s all possible if you just believe in yourself and in the human spirit hat is within you. Believe in yourself and ANYTHING is possible.

Let’s get the ball rolling today! Let’s start small. First sit down tonight and plan your day tomorrow. Make sure that plan includes healthy food choices, empowering activities, and some exercise. Plan out every hour. Write it all down and go to bed. Set your alarm and GET UP 30 minutes before you usually get up. Take a 15 minute walk and review your plan for the day that you wrote last night. Now eat a healthy breakfast and do what you said you were going to do.

Do the same thing every night and every morning and you will be amazed how your confidence level will start to go up.

Next you need to start believing in yourself and you MUST refuse to succumb to the prevailing victim mentality in our country. Every time a negative thought creeps in simply push it away with positive thoughts. You will be amazed at how much better you life will become.

Next you need to get out of your life what is bothering you. Make a list and deal with each challenge one at a time. Have confidence! Don’t try to tackle the whole list in one day. Take it one thing at a time. Have you been meaning to call your mother? Clean the garage? Hire a personal training? Sorry to steal Nike’s slogan but JUST DO IT! Start now with one thing at a time!

Try these simple things and your happiness and success will begin to grow exponentially.

So many of us accept mediocrity in our lives. We accept those rolls of fat. We accept a bad relationship. We accept a messy garage? And we accept a level of health that is downright sad. Why? It’s time to take back your potential and begin to fulfill it!
