1.
Don’t
focus on what you are ‘missing out’ on like chocolate, ice cream, soft drinks, burgers etc.
Instead, focus on what you are gaining by eating healthy and nutritious food.
Not only does healthy food taste incredible but you are also nourishing your body
with the fuel it needs. In return, you will have more energy, clearer skin,
better health and an overall better quality of life!
2.
Recognize
your progress. Every little bit of progress is still progress should be proud
of! You may not realise and acknowledge it but once you start living a healthy & active
lifestyle, each day that passes you are fitter then the day before
and enhancing the quality of your future! Consistency is key when it comes to reaching your fitness goals.
3.
You
have a choice each and every day, you can choose to push negative thoughts away. Just
because something ‘bad’ happens in the morning, it doesn't mean that the whole day is bad.
Accept it and move on. Every day can and should be amazing! Make it amazing...
4 Visualize
yourself accomplishing your goals: Research shows that when you believe you can
do something, you are more likely to do it! Write it down, tell your friends, post it on Facebook write a letter to a friend telling them about your goals and aspirations. Make a vision board and put pictures of your goals on it. All of these tools will help you stay accountable and assist in you reaching your goals.
6. Aim to be the best version of yourself! When you love, nourish and support yourself properly, you allow yourself to blossom and be the person that you are meant to be.
7.
Create
a vision board: Write your goals down, print inspiring quotes and pictures and
stick them on your Vision Board. This way, every day you will see your goals in front
of you and there will be nothing stopping you from reaching them. This is something that I have done recently and I LOVE that I can see my goals every day when I am at home. Even right now, my board is next to my computer reminding and inspiring me what I want to achieve.
8.
Surround
yourself with positive people. A positive support network is so important when
you're trying to reach your goals. You need to surround yourself with people
who support you and lift you up on a daily basis. Surround yourself with those
who see the greatness within you! Research has shown that “You are the average of
the five people you spend the most time with.'” . If you want to be active, healthy, and happy it's very hard to do so if you surround yourself with others
who are always negative, unhappy and unhealthy. Essentially, these people will bring you down and stop you achieving your goals. On the other hand , if you are be around people who inspire you and believe in you then you will reach your goals and be the person that you want to be.
9.
Spend
15 minutes every day in prayer, meditation or silence. Why? To mitigate the
stress hormone Cortisol , which is a hormone that stores stomach fat. Spend
this time deep breathing and really focus on relaxing your body and in return reducing your cortisol and stress levels.
10. Positive people have been proven to
be healthier, happier and more successful! Having a positive outlook enables
you to cope better with stressful situations, which reduces the harmful health
effects of stress on your body.
11. How you think is everything! You
change your world by how you perceive it. If you focus on all the things that
are not working and negative, then that is how your overall perception of the
world will be. If you focus on what is going right , what you love, what makes
you happy your quality and perception of life is guaranteed to be positive!
12. Find what you love and do it daily.
What you love to do, is a sign of what you are meant to do. You can only
express the very best parts of yourself when you are living in accordance with
what you really want to be doing.
13. Believe in yourself! In order to become the best version of your, you have to
believe that you can and will be. “Dream, Believe, Achieve!” is one of my favorite quotes(Love it so much I have I white board on my fridge with it written on it reminding me every day that if i put my mind to something I can and will achieve it.)
14. Wake up in the morning with the thought that
something wonderful is about to happen. If you wake up every morning and think a
positive thought, research has shown that you are guaranteed to be happier throughout the whole entire
day! Have an Attitude of Gratitude.. !!
15. If you don't like the situation you're in, change it. You are in control of your own life, thoughts, feelings and emotions. Sometimes this is something that we need to be reminded of. Asses your situation and remember that you are in control of what you do.
16. Do more of what makes you happy and less of what makes you un-happy.
