Hi Motiv8ers,
Coach Ty Here with another killer Blog post and a really big PEP TALK to help you get back on track if you are feeling in the slumps or help you get fired up if you are feeling GREAT! =) But first check out this quick video that Coach Joe Found. It is amazing and will fire you up.
That was pretty Motiv8ional right?
Ok Lets get Started. Today I want to Talk about SELF IMAGE!
First Question.......What is it that you want?..........Who do you want to be?......What do you want to accomplish?
Focus these three questions towards the health and fitness side of things. Really think about it for a little bit.
Do you want to be a person that......
-Looks and feels vibrant, healthy, and energetic
-can do 100 push-ups without stopping
-run 5ks, 10ks, half marathons, or marathons
-doesn't suffer from illnesses
-can keep up with their kids on family outings
-is motivated to conquer their workouts and have fun doing it
-is an inspiration to others to stay strong and never give up on their goals
-is just all around motivated and so ridiculously strong it is contagious.

Think about the person you want to be and the goals you want to accomplish.
Now that you have thought about those ideas write those thoughts down!!!!.....DO IT.....It will make them more real.
Waiting on you to write them down. =)
Writing is a powerful tool and your brain connects thoughts and actions better when it can see it and read it. After you have written those thoughts down there is only one thing that you need to do at this point in order to accomplish those goals and to become that person you want to be.
You have to stop and tell yourself this phrase.....
I TRULY BELIEVE THAT AM THAT PERSON!..... and I will do the actions/work needed to help me accomplish my dreams/goals! Nothing is going to hold me back. I have 100% conviction that I am going to reach my goal.
Motiv8ers saying this one phrase is a step in changing your self image of yourself. Once you have figured out who you want to be and the goals you want to accomplish you have to truly believe that this is who you are!
Example: if you want to be lean, look like a runner, and be able to do burpees all day but your self image of yourself is an out of shape couch potato who can't even run down the block....then there is no way your going to motivate yourself to get out there and do what runners do...Because your self image of yourself is telling you that you are a lazy couch potato. In order to be lean and be crazy fit you have to do what those types of people do and tell yourself that you are that type of person!
Motiv8ers be your own therapist and believe that you truly are the person that you want to become and do not allow your negative self image of yourself put doubt in your mind in your abilities to make change happen.
So many of us start the process of making change but after a few days or weeks we allow our past self's to get in the way of our progress. We say things like:
-I have never been fit in the past. It is just to hard for a person like me.
-I've never been a runner before. I could never do that.
-No one in my family has been fit before. it just isn't in my genes.
-I've always been over weight. That is just who I am.
-I've never been a runner before. I could never do that.
-No one in my family has been fit before. it just isn't in my genes.
-I've always been over weight. That is just who I am.
Crew this is called....."Putting Your Past into your Future!"
This way of thinking is self sabotaging because you are not your past. You are a new person in this moment. Remember "What you Think About is what you will get and BECOME!"
If you are constantly putting yourself down and telling yourself that you are not the person you wish to become. Then guess what?
You won't ever reach your goal!
Crew all of you have the power and abilities to be whoever you wish to be. You just have to believe it, feel it, think about it constantly, and Kick your old self out the door and never let that person come back into your life!
Believe in your dream and tell yourself that you are the person that you wish to be and.....that is who you are! Write down who you want to be, read it every morning, and truly believe that is who you are.
Then go out and be a force of Epicness and do the work needed to accomplish your Dreams!
Do this and you will change your Life!
Crew if you want to learn a little more check out this video from Bob Proctor. It is a little long better will definitely open your mind to how you might be sabotaging your success just by how you see yourself in your mind.
All of you are amazing and thank you for letting the Motiv8 Team and I help you with your fitness!
Bring the questions and see you soon!
Stay EPIC and Don't Forget To Be AWESOME!
Coach Ty Out!
P.S...DON'T LET NEGATIVE THOUGHTS DEFINE YOU. ONLY LET POSITIVE THOUGHTS DEFINE YOU!
