Staying motivated, who hasn't had a problem with that at one time or another? Losing motivation is why people give up their dreams and goals. Here are some suggestions on keeping motivated by the great Jack Lalanne. After his I'll add a few comments of my own.
!. Reads books and magazines that have inspiring stories and articles.
2. Organize your day so that you have the time to train.
3.Develop a positive attitude.
4.Set goals, short term and long term.
5.Daily, remind yourself what your goal(s) is.
6.Recognize that willpower has to be nurtured.
7.If staying motivated has been a problem in the past, find someone with a similar goal and have them as a training partner.
8.Break bad habits. No alcohol or drugs to interfere with your commitment.
I like his suggestions but would add one important thing---when you have a goal that you want to reach, you must truly believe that this goal is worthy of your time and energy. For instance, too many people believe deep down inside that the athletic goals they have set are not really 'worthy.' Not worthy like hitting the $70 thou a year annual income mark or getting that six figure home in the gated community. Your goal is worthy if you believe it is. Since when is a price tag or an income a sign of the worthiness of a goal(s). I suppose since we've entered the age of money and what you have rules era.
Don't by the lie, be an individual!
