How to Get Rid of Your Big BUT(T)!
Here is a little Food for Thought...
No matter what part of your body you want to lean up, get tone, or taper down, the very first thing you have to do is get rid of your BIG BUT! No, that's not a typo. That's exactly what I meant - Your Big B-U-T!
What do I mean? Well, let's examine a few big buts...and yes....the pun was intended.
I really want to eat healthy, BUT Mexican food is my weakness!
I really need to get to the gym more often, BUT I'm just so busy!
I really want to get in shape, BUT the holiday is just around the corner!
I really want to get my cardio in, BUT it's just too hot!
I want...I need...I should....BUT, BUT, BUT, BUT!!! Here is my amazing two-step process for getting rid of your big BUT...you ready?
- Ask yourself if you REALLY want to be in the best shape possible or if you would rather have a big BUT because you can't have both. You just can't!
- If you decide that you REALLY want it, just get rid of your big BUT. Get rid of it now and lose it forever. If you don't think you can do that, read step 1 again.
It's time we realize just how much power we really do have. We have the power to decide what we eat; we have the power to decide how to manage our time; we have the power to influence our thoughts and determine our outcomes. No one else does; we have power over ourselves. Let's use it.
The word BUT is just a word we use when we aren't exercising our personal power. As soon as we mutter it, we've rendered ourselves powerless. Let's rid it from our vocabulary when it comes to personal choice.
No IFs, ANDs, or BUTs about it!
