I've been planning on writing this article for some time but I just keep losing interest. OK, just kidding. But how many of you want to achieve something big or small and just don't seem to be able to get started?
I am a naturally energetic person who, when an idea hits me, I have trouble letting go of the idea until some sort of creation comes to completion. Whether that be researching and writing an article, producing a new health program or taking a vacation.
I realize that I am on the other end of the spectrum when it comes to motivation. A lot of my friends, family and clients, however, often feel a lack of motivation when it comes to acomplishing a dream no matter how big or small.
How many of you have wanted to complete that novel that's been popping into your head for years? How many of you want to train for and finish a marathon? How many of you simply want to clean your house?
Have you ever sat down and tried to list the justification why your motivation is so deficient? Lets face it. Procrastination is easy and doesn't need help in the excuse department.
Many times, we won't do something worthwhile just because it's the right thing to do. We wait until we fear a negative effect of not doing the right thing. Lets take something seemingly as easy as cleaning the house.
Isn't it interesting how ones house suddenly becomes dirty when we find out were having company? Or, even if we realize the house is in need of cleaning, motivation doesn't strike until we learn of impending guests. Then, motivation comes on in a fury!
This can be applied to a healthy lifestyle. There are some of us who eat well, exercise regularly, get the proper amount of sleep and don't drink to excess or do drugs, solely because we want to be healthy.
For many though, just like finishing that novel or taking out the trash, motivation to improve our health only comes when it becomes a necessity.
For example, it's often not until one is diagnosed with high blood pressure and prescribed medication with terrible side effects that one takes the gumption to exercise and eat better.
This can also be said of lifestyle induced health issues like type II diabetes, obesity, smoking related health issues and alcohol and drug related issues.
No matter how much we hear over the years that we are affecting our health by our negative choices, it's not until we have been diagnosed with a genuine problem that we seek to better our lives.
The best course of action is to make a plan for change, set a date and TELL someone. Having someone take an interest and ask you about your progress is highly motivating to continue on the path to good health.
I also urge you to try one of my all natural programs such as my High Blood Pressure program or my Weight Loss Breeze program. The out come is amazing! Make a plan and order today!
