Newsletter #33 - A successful and healthy 2011

Hello Friends

Happy New Year and Best Wishes for a successful and healthy 2011

This is the time of year when goals for the upcoming year are set…Which brings to mind one of my favorite quotes By the ex football coach Herm Edwards " A goal without a plan is nothing more than a wish"

We cant set goals to lose weight or get into better physical shape without a plan.

Let's all start with these two words…. KEEP MOVING

When you sit still physically for too long, your body morphs and changes – making you less healthy, less athletic, and less capable.

When you sit still mentally for too long, your mind loses skills and capacities – making what was once easy far more difficult.

When you sit still emotionally for too long, you can become fixed and jaded – making it difficult to find happiness and joy in the things that truly matter to you.

When you still too long in business, you become more concerned about maintaining the status quo – making it hard to focus on changing your industry and the world for the better.

Work not going as you want? Keep moving.

Keep moving. It's a rule, philosophy and a natural law all rolled into one easy-to-say statement.

Easy to say and sometimes hard to do...

As you think ahead, somedays it will be hard, that lethargic feeling on a rainy day, or the I don't feel like it today, or perhaps I feel like I have a something coming on (a cold) or a million other excuses….Whoever said change is easy

Some days moving will be hard. If you've ever experienced the intense muscle soreness that comes from a hard training session, then you know what I am talking about. Hard work comes at a price. Change is hard and will cost you something. The cost may be pain and discomfort but it is all part of the process. If you keep moving, the soreness will not last. You will grow, get stronger, more flexible, leaner and tougher. Each time the work will be easier, it won't take quite as much out of you.

So, as you look ahead to the coming year, make a plan: a simple, direct plan to just keep moving.

Struggling with your weight loss? Keep moving.

Shoulder still bothering you? Keep moving.

Write down your goals...

And when things get tough and you ready to quit look at your written plan

And there will be your reminder

Keep Moving

Eat Well, Live Well, Stay Strong!
