There is a starting point for anyone who embarks on journey to becoming healthier, fitter or leaner. That starting point is desire. There is something that they want. They may desire a smaller body. They may desire the ability to do more things without huffing and puffing. They may desire to be alive, healthy and well for their children, grandchildren and even great grandchildren.
At the starting point, that desire is so motivating. You know what you want and you are bound and determined to achieve it. However over time the hard work and time it takes to achieve something great can start to drown out the pull of that desire. Little by little you become "ok" with life as it was before. You become complacent and comfortable, but NOT SATISFIED.
I challenge you to remember what you desired when you started striving for a healthier life. Remember why it was SO important, why you were willing to make the initial changes. Don't become comfortable again. Keep that desire alive, keep striving, only then will you truly achieve great things and be truly satisfied with your own life, body and health.
I need this constant reminder! Thanks!
