Motivation is like a campfire—it starts strong but requires fuel to keep burning. In today’s episode, we’re diving into 4 ways to stay motivated in your health and fitness journey, even when life gets busy or the excitement wears off. From partnering with God to setting realistic goals, these strategies will help you build lasting habits that honor your faith and fit your season of life.

Involving Him brings peace, clarity, and purpose to your journey.Practical tips: Start each day with a prayer or journal entry, inviting God to guide your health and fitness efforts. Reflect on Bible verses, such as James 1:5, and ask for wisdom and strength when motivation fades.Example: Listen to worship music during your workouts or use the time as a moment of prayer.2. Set Realistic Goals and Create a Flexible Plan
