Hi,
Hope you are having a good day. It's cold outside in the northeast.
Many people don't feel like going to work today but they put on a few extra layers of clothing and get going.
This Saturday will be 10 weeks until the Fitness Atlantic show at Mohegan Sun.
About 20 people have entered the show so far.
Only 20 people have made up their mind and are 100% committed.
If you have entered a fitness show before as Bikini, Figure, Fitness,
or any other division you know that the last week or even month out
should not be the time to make drastic decisions.
People wait and think: "I'll see how I look closer and decide."
That doesn't work. That means you doubt yourself and that's not good.
If you don't commit you end up cheating too much on the diet or skipping workouts.
Scrabbling at the final hour just makes people very nervous and nerves make you
just feel really uncomfortable...
The stage fright part and butterflies are usually always there but if you know you
are not 100% because you just started way too late that's another story.
Things are never perfect just like planning a wedding or major event
anything can happen. That's sorta why people hire wedding planners instead
of trying to do everything themselves and get stressed out.
The decision making part should take place at the beginning of prep.
People always me the last week before the show if I'm going crazy and are super busy.
I'm not really... other than people who are entering calling with questions they should have asked
months and months prior.
Now is the time to ask the questions and to come to a show workshop.
The decision for anyone to enter a show should be now as well.
NOW is the time to set the goal for 2019.
DIET AND WORKOUT prep starts NOW but at this point you start
thinking if you need a bikini, a suit, a gown, a theme wear outfit. The reach out to designers or
coaches.
Sign Up! Book the Hotel and make the spray tanning appointment.
Then all you have to do is focus daily on working out and eating right.
There are be a crazy difference in how you look in ten weeks if you FOCUS.
Here is something about deciding from Tony Robbins.
"We all get caught up in our own self-doubt. However, if you get in your head, you’re dead. The brain is a great tool to strategize with, but there’s a point where you have to use your heart, put yourself on the line, and do something. Instead of thinking too much, commit to a decision, act on it, and move yourself forward.
What’s one small decision you could make right now that would take you in the direction you need to go?
What’s a big decision that might be really tough, but if you made it, it would take you in a new direction in your life?
A lot of people tend to make “sorta kinda” decisions. Here’s the secret behind why people don’t follow through: The reason people don’t commit to a decision is that they don’t act on it.
You may have thought that it’s the other way around – that you have to commit to a decision before you act on it. But the only way to prove to yourself that you’re completely committed to a decision and are going to follow through is if you push yourself to take the first step – which is the hardest step to take.
“Daily action ignites the momentum that creates lasting change”
If you don’t act, your dreams will die in your mind. When you make a decision, commit yourself to it by taking the first step toward it right then and there. Otherwise, you’ll go home, get caught up in the 87 other things you need to do, and you won’t make any headway. Take some form of action that will move you in the direction you want to go.
Talk Soon,
Brian
