Health and Fitness Motivation — Confidence
Short and Sweet
I want to talk about a few quotes I heard this week that really stuck with me and I wanted to share.
I was chatting with my Tony Robbins coach the other day and we were talking about how quitting is a habit - and that reminded me of this great video I had watched from Brian Tracy in which he goes on to explain that QUITTING IS A HABIT.
But what's even worse, is that when you quit something, ESPECIALLY fitness, you aren't quitting on the gym you are quitting on yourself. You're giving up on you....
Old Ziggy
While typing away for a few clients, I was listening to some good old Zig Ziglar stuff, which I hadn't listened to for a while, but man is he ever the best.
I’m a huge fan. God rest his soul, he’s since passed, but his material is priceless and timeless.
The phrase that triggered this newsletter was this:

Talk about cutting to the chase. That's such a good phrase to repeat to yourself over and over...

Are You In?
Are you in or are you, well, in?
I have a confession... I haven't worked out much in a little while since I’ve moved. I mean, I went jogging once...and I came very close to stopping at Starbucks while I jogged by.

How Tall?
How tall will a tree grow?
As tall as it can!
Have you ever seen a tree grow half as much as it could? I haven't.
I've been listening to a lot of Jim Rohn lately and it seems every phrase he says I think to myself "I need to put that in a chapter and tell people!” so if you haven’t already, I strongly recommend you pick up ANYTHING Jim Rohn.
So, what does he have to do with fitness? Nothing. And everything.
He talks a lot about attitude, and I am a strong...
Can’t Sleep
It's 10:45pm on this beautiful Sunday night, everyone's finally sound asleep and I'm wide awake.
I tried to relax and lay down, I really did, but I had a million things I wanted to tell you so here I am, typing away.
Where to start...
Oh yes, I’d like to start with the fat guy on the dirt bike - his own description of himself, not mine!
A friend and I were out biking when a guy approached us to chat for a minute while he took a break. While we admired his bike (a...
