  • #31 How Expectations Can Cause Self-Sabotage

    Shakespeare once said, “Expectation is the root of all heartache.” We would even add “unrealistic” expectations are a sure recipe for disappointment and heartache.

    Proverbs 13:12 – “Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a dream fulfilled is a tree of life.”

    Stay surrendered by listening to your body and listening to the Lord

  • #28 3 Steps to Lasting Change

    Step one: Renewing your mind 

    Romans 12:2 – “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”

    If you need help with this, I teach this in my book Broken Crayons Still Color. https://amzn.to/3fo1fFE

    Step two: Focusing on one thing at a time

    There’s really no such thing as successful multitasking. Studies have confirmed that we do our best work while focusing on one thing. Our work becomes watered down when we try doing multiple things at once.

    Step three: Develop Habits

    Dr. Carolyn Leaf has shown with her brain research that you can form a long term memory in 21 days and an automatic habit in 63 days (9 weeks) when you focus only on one main habit at a time. Then, you can layer them on top of each other. 

    This is what has worked for me with my fitness goals. I started with simply exercising 15 minutes a day a few days a week. And that’s why we are hosting the MOMENTUM challenge to help you form the same habit.

  • #25 Don’t Go Alone: The Power of Accountability

    Want to see success in your fitness and nutrition goals? If so, we recommend that you don’t go alone.

    Think about a sheep. It’s much safer when a sheep stays with the group. When it strays off by itself is when a wolf or other predatorial animal can more easily strike.

    The same is true for us. The excitement and newness will wear off. Some days we may feel like giving up. The stinkin’ thinkin’ may start to take over. That’s why we need accountability.

    Sometimes we take on a “Lone Ranger” mentality but we forget that even the Lone Ranger had his sidekick “Tonto”

    James 5:16 – “Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.”

    1 Thessalonians 5:11 – “So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing.”

    Proverbs 27:17 – “As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.”
