Motivation for a New Year

New Years is coming and lots are talking about getting in shape. I have seen the words "do it to make others jealous" a lot. I know not all things motivate all of us but this does NOT do it for me at all. If it does for you it is totally OK. The bottom line is whatever motivates you enough to get healthy - use it. For me I would rather focus on me. Working on my grass instead of wondering if you are noticing mine. For me and my life nothing sustainable and life changing has come out of something based on jealousy and negative feelings. Focus on improving your body, making yourself proud, overcoming the odds, improved energy levels, the looks of amazement on your Doctors face, being an example for your family, paying forward what you have done.... the list can go on and on. You are so much more than making someone jealous. Find a positive focus and you will be even more amazing.
