The real person resting inside of us is the most influential component when weight loss and fitness is wanted. The ability to focus on inspiration coupled together with willpower will get real results.

Once our reason is found, nothing can slow us down. No amount of hinderance will detour us. It’s just identifying our purpose that’s starts the process.

One famous person had a purpose and a dream!

There are so many gifts 🎁 lying in your possession so many talents waiting at your disposal. These traits and talents are inclusive to you and only you. No one on earth is like you, and no one on earth has the same abilities that you have. That’s a very inspiring statement concerning your unique opportunity to identify your purpose.

T.D. Jakes

Using your gifts to help others to smile, promote charitable causes, and to inspire many others will strengthen and improve your unique gifts. It’s a valuable treasure that you have. 💰

Imagine that you are responsible for saving the world. All of that responsibility is in your hands. Just like super man, iron man, any super hero seen in the movies. Those heroes seam to be invincible having the power to change disaster into victory at a moments notice.

Superman

You have the same ability to perform the miraculous just like those folks. No one has your same traits, talents, smile, personality, or enthusiasm that you do. That makes you special not better but special. Also, makes you just as important.

In conclusion, finding a reason is very inspiring in life, and an important ingredient when finding weight loss & fitness.

Overcoming Fear 😯 seeing 👀accomplishments

Your trophy

Fear can keep us from the things that we enjoy the most. Like a hiking trip to the top of a really high mountain ( Everest)

Mount Everest

Walking 🚶‍♀️ on a elevated trail in the woods. Maybe riding your bicycle up a long hill. Climbing 🧗‍♀️ a steep mountain. All of these activities are scary at first but, can be overcome by your imagination and seeing your weight loss fitness goals via your creative thoughts you 🧑👩holding the trophy 🏆

I started cycling at the age of 54. Started running sometime later. However, I was apprehensive about my age having the strength and courage to do such things offered a big question mark for myself. This experience was different unknown uncharted not familiar.

Senior Strong

There was not the assurance that I could spin the wheels on a road bike in the middle of the road surrounded by cars larger than myself. I did not have the guarantee that I could complete a pre-defined route on my Garmin computer. All I had was the dream that I had of myself holding the trophy and myself at the top.

Sometimes the imaginary dream’s of yourself standing at the top, and holding the completion trophy is all that you need to to overcome fear. It’s not a special formula or special gadget to get to the top or something giving you the trophy but, it’s the visualization of you crossing the finish line, and you the person that completes the race that makes the work worthwhile.

Success starts with a thought seed planted. Once planted you are now responsible for watering, feeding, weeding, and cultivating. Once the growing begins it never stops if you so desire the growing to be. A repetitive overcoming gives us confidence that You can accomplish anything that you want to in the face of obstacles. There’s no stopping your intuition or your imagination once you have planted the garden 🪴

Harvest is coming up after a successful growing season, and now it’s time for you to reap the benefits. No longer will you have to rely on artificial means to lose weight and to experience fitness. It’s your learned experiences in overcoming apprehension and fear 😧 that will enable yourself to compete and hold the coveted trophy 🏆
