GO AWAY NEGATIVITY!!!!!! SCREW YOU!

SO...this entry is going up A LOT later than expected. Let's just say i'm borrowing my little sister's computer for this. Let's say a little prayer for my almost deceased iPhone....

Ok. moving forward.

So sometimes we face real life situations and personal issues that can potentially RUIN our progress. This SUCKS, and this happens. 

I, for example,have had a series of things pop up recently that have been driving me nuts, and changing my focus. Whether it's car issues, family stuff, relationship set-backs, and/or emotional and economical stresses...its all the same when its got you moping around in non-productivity. 

We are all human, but this is CRAP!

YOU HAVE THE POWER to change the way you think, and the way you think will CHANGE the way you DO things.

A MOTIVATIONAL boost is my way of snapping myself out of it.

HEAR: Listen to music...nothing slow, or jam-packed with emotional triggers. Go for something you can dance to, run to, scream to, just make it up-beat! Picture yourself sweating the fat off to this music, and you will surely be re-charged and ready to go!

SEE: Let's face it, we all get a good amount of our motivation from other people. Singers, actors,relatives,friends... I like to see someone looking good, and evoking confidence....it makes me want to get off my ass and workout and be healthy and achieve that physical attractiveness and supreme confidence too! I like putting music videos on my ipod with healthy, fit, beautiful women who own their confidence. Also, look around! When i'm on my way to my boot camp workout,(www.fitmommybootcamp.com), I people watch. Whether it's someone jogging and doing something positive in their day, or watching a really unhealthy person stuffing french fries in their face, it's all motivation. 

DO: After getting a good dose of motivation, and realizing that you would much rather be productive than let trials and tribulations CONTROL your success, GO out there and DO SOMETHING about it! Its THAT SIMPLE. And today I too will give my negative demons the one finger salute, and get my butt into my boot camp class. =)

Update post coming in a few hours;) on my way to kick my own butt...already almost at my short term goal.

SHORT TERM GOALS vs LONG TERM GOALS

Hola!

So I had a pretty awesome class last night with matt and the girls =) 

It was my official day one towards my new short-term goal. That goal being: looking cute and feeling good about myself on Halloween. This is important to me because I was about 35lbs heavier a year ago on Halloween, and felt like total crap watching my friends have fun, while I moped around like an unsocial fat-ass. <---yes i just called myself that Oh yeah, and watching a bunch of random girls in skanky costumes hit on my boyfriend wasn't that fun either!!! 

Anyway, it's a night for dressing up, having fun and taking pictures for memories...not moping around and settling for "whatever fits". I have a few weeks to meet my new short-term goal, and I know that with the bootcamp classes + eating clean and a POSITIVE MENTALITY, I will achieve this goal!

Short term goals are really important because they are achievable within a shorter period of time, and are more realistic. Let me use an example: I can use one of the following to fuel, and visualize potential success:

A) "In a few weeks, on Halloween, my goal is to lose one dress size"

OR

B) "In 8 months I want to look like a bikini model"

Ok, really? We've all had goal B pop into our heads. Did we succeed? Unless you only dedicated  yourself to that ONE thing every waking moment, popped a bunch of pills, starved yourself, and occasionally binged on 7 layer nachos and ice cream cake cause you were so psycho from denying yourself SOLID food all in the name of becoming an exotic bikini model by your birthday...then YOU DID NOT SUCCEED. And by succeed I mean you didn't pack on DOUBLE what you had lost the minute you ate a sandwich in your awesome bikini.

Option A is a better goal. Not only is it a HEALTHY goal,but you get to achieve it in a shorter period of time! Now, don't get all crazy and twist my words around by trying to set a short term goal of becoming that bikini model! Keep it healthy, keep it realistic. Those two go hand-in-hand. 

Keeping these short term goals will benefit your self-esteem, can help with keeping cellulite and stretch marks AWAY! (from my experience) And, will teach you how to really appreciate YOURSELF and the hard work YOU put into achieving each goal. Oh yeah, and NOT STARVING YOURSELF +OVER-EXERCISING are always a major plus for you and the people in your life because you won't become a CRAZY BEAST-WOMAN!

So set a short-term goal! And watch how amazing it feels to reward yourself with achievement more often =)

Post your goals, share comments etc...
