5 WAYS TO GAIN CONFIDENCE IN YOUR JOURNEY

5 WAYS TO GAIN CONFIDENCE IN YOUR HEALTH & FITNESS JOURNEY

1 -UNDERSTAND:

Understand everything you do…

The reason why...

The reason how…

The reason what for…

If you don’t, you will always self-doubt yourself.

Self-doubt kills confidence.

Much like round up kills weeds…

2 -OVERCOME:

We all have stories we each tell ourselves…

Very few are actually true.

Collections of past experiences...

Dragged with us into the future.

They have been with us for so long.

It makes it hard to let go.

Divorce them.

Break up.

Overcome...

You must let them go.

They are the only things that can hold you back and kill confidence.

Work on YOU.

3 - CELEBRATE:

In your journey you will have many wins.

Most you won’t see

Because you won’t be looking for them.

There is the day you felt shit but showed up anyway...

The day you got 2 more reps than last time.

The day you said no to desert or seconds…

The little wins lead to the big wins.

Acknowledgement builds confidence fast.

Because you are doing it...

Taking action.

Following through.

Doing what you said you would do.

4 -REPETITION

The mother builder of gaining confidence.

As you learn.

You must repeat

And repeat.

And repeat.

It's easy to take the foot off once you learn…

You know that feeling “yeah I got this?”

Followed by relaxing a little.

The moment you stop repeating is the exact moment confidence starts leaving the room.

Then EVERYTHING goes to shit.

5- PHYSICAL

It's true.

Physical progress counts.

Changes to your physique matter.

When you notice them it drives you forward?

And it does build confidence but there is one problem.

Many fall into the trap of focusing on just this

If I look like………

They are lured into the trap.

The belief.

And Sold on the dream…

That if I just look like this (insert body shape) everything will be fixed.

All my problems will vanish.

I will be full of confidence…

It’s not true.

Not true at all…

You must work on you.

Overcome you.

Celebrate you.

Repeat you.

Or you will forever need to put on a front.

You see I know many people who are looked up to as role models in our industry…

Awesome people.

Lovely people.

Caring people.

Have hundreds and thousands of followers even…

Killer smiles & bodies….

Yet are crumbling when it comes to confidence, self-belief & happiness.

I truly wish that was an assumption instead of a fact.

Don’t fall into the trap that confidence is only about looking a certain way.

Yes, It’s part of the puzzle.

But you must go deeper.

Don’t forget to...

Work on you.

Overcome you.

Celebrate you.

Repeat you.
