Finally back on my fitness grind and got a chance today to check out the new soul cycle in SOMA SF....love! For a couple of weeks now, my mind and heart have not been seeing eye to eye and I am paying the price... I'm not where I want to be with my ideal body fat goal. To be very honest, I was gung ho about my fitness in the beginning of the year like everyone normally is every new year...shocking! Sustaining that motivation was a different story. I fell off the train and found nearly every excuse in the book on why I couldn't workout. Don't get me wrong, I've been working out, doing my two times a week workouts with my trainer but it's obviously not enough to get me to my goal. My motivation lifeline flatlined...and it sucked! We all go through these times whether it's our job, fitness, or whatever else it may be in our life and to be frank it's NORMAL. We all plateau but it is so important to recognize those plateau moments and quickly bounce back. The key is to re-ignite that fire and to get that booty back to work!
So you hear the saying all the time, "the mind is a powerful thing." True statement, but, I beg to differ. Everything in life is dependent on two things in my book: our mindset + our heart. The two together on the same path, are unstoppable! Neither one can co-exist without the other but it's all about finding the right balance between the two. I found that for me personally, that while the mind is a "powerful" tool, it's nothing without your heart. Your heart has to be right on board with your mind. Your mind can light the fire, but your heart will be the fuel to keep that fire burning. Once you've got that "fi-yah" burning, you will find ALL of the right excuses to find time and a way to workout. We are only as successful as we allow ourselves to be, so don't hold yourself from the greatness that you are destined for! Get your mind right and your heart onboard and let that fi-yah burn strong! ✊
