Step aside and get out of your own way.

Have you ever noticed that the more you want something the more you doubt your ability to get it?

That little pesky inner voice starts putting all sorts of doubts in your head.  
"What if I can't do it?"
"What if others laugh?"  
"What if I don't deserve it?"
"Everytime I try I fail."
"What will others think?"

Well first of all, who cares what others think?  Start listening to that good voice in your head not the mean one.  Stop over thinking, putting barriers in your own way.

If it is a weight issue, the people I work with that succeed the easiest are the ones who simply decide they are going to do it.  They never say: 
"maybe, possibly, sure I'll give it a go, we'll see, I'll try".  
Instead they say: 
"i'm going to do this, I'm not stopping till I get there, I've had enough of feeling like this and now is the time that stops, I deserve this."  
Can you see the difference?

When you put doubts in your head, your brain listens.  It says your wish is my command.  Where you put your focus, the rest of you will follow.  It is what causes us to self sabotage.  

The same goes for health.  We get stuck in this reality of "there is nothing you can do", "I've tried everything and nothing works".  I can tell you now that you have not tried everything, no-one has and if it is important enough to you do not stop trying until you find something that works.  If I had listened to all the advice I was given for the last 13 years I would still be in a lot of pain and spending most of my week in bed trying not to be sick and trying to find a position that would be comfortable for at least 5 minutes.  As it turned out I was lucky enough to have supportive people around me that whenever I looked like I might give up looking for a cure, they would pull me back up and remind me not to give up.  Here I am today, fit, healthy and happy living a full life again.  All because I did not listen to that voice that was trying to tell me to give in.

If you fall down, look at what tripped you, get back up and learn from it.  It's not always easy but in the end it is much better than being permanently stuck somewhere that you are not happy.

You have the power to have the life you want, you just have to get out of your own way and go for it :)


Do not be a pessimist!
Don't be a realist!
Grow your wings and be an optimist, because you will never know how high you can fly unless you do!
