Tuesday is always a great day for coming up with plans and changing your life.
My top motivation tips for this lovely summer's Tuesday are.
1. Create the dream - You need a dream whether that is to live to 100, be a size 12, be happy, live abroad, own a Ferrari, swim the channel or fly to the moon. Without a dream then you can't fire up your motivation and motivation is needed to take action. If you really have a dream that you want then you will go and create it.
2. PMA - Positive Mental Attitude, it is very true that people rarely do anything that they don't want to do and don't enjoy and therefore keeping a PMA is absolutely key. It doesn't mean you have to spend your life with a permanent smile or that you can never have a 'bad' day but if you can keep looking for the good things then you will find it.
3. Consistency - The key to creating a sculpture masterpiece is to tap it a million times, it is key when you are trimming down in weight that you find something that works and then you repeat, repeat and repeat again. Doing a diet for three days, not dieting for two days, moving from low carb to no carb then back to couting points won't create success. Therefore find something that you know works and stick to it, and never get discouraged and doubt the outcome.
4. Climbing a mountain starts with the first step - Planning and creating the dream is key but then taking action is the answer, the most successful people will always take the next step and sure they may fail but they bounce straight back up and then take another step. It is absolutely key to keep going down the path you have mapped yourself on and every day take a step nearer and nearer.
5. Don't Procrastinate - As a society we spend a lot of time putting things off, but every day you don't get busy is a day longer before you reach your goal. The comfort zone is no comfort zone as I said in The Comfort Zone
6. Never quit - You only fail when you stop trying and if your goals are well formed, your motivation is sound and you never doubt yourself then you will get there. Sure along the way it might be a little bumpy but never allow anyone or anything to stop you getting your dreams.
Remember you are a star, it is your birth right to be happy and healthy and therefore make this week a week to remember and go for it.
