We, humans, tend to rely on external factors to manage all the things in life.. especially the things that we deeply know are the right ones and most often beyond the comfort zone.
-
If we rely on the environment, ultimately we will only start under what appears to be an "ideal circumstance.."
-
Start itself might be triggered and initially led by an extrinsic motivation that is normally driven by some outcome.. date, meeting, beach, summer holiday, ceremony, wedding, etc. (you name it).
-
Those types of motivation are great to kickstart but the weakest ones in the longer term, as after this type of goal and date are close everything else is falling into the water..
-
Same as being ready to start, those types of things could be a trigger but if we were looking for an ideal situation, every non “ideal” on the way will get us off the track completely (I.e. stop with a diet because.. stop with training because..)
-
And from an “ideal” situation in life, things rarely go to even more ideal, right?!?
-
What I'm trying to say..
Ditch your excused..
Pick yourself up..
Start with whatever you got now and power through the tough time, so you will sustain through the ups and downs and nothing will get you off the track..
-
You'll be way ahead even if you do it poorly at the beginning then you would be by waiting for an ideal time to start.. weeks, months or years from now.. in a meantime you might have already reached your goal and be in heaven..
-
Your resilience threshold, that way, will be well trained and higher for whatever it is to come in life!
-
Remember that a smooth sea never made a skilled sailor..
-
Practice being uncomfortable is the masterpiece of life!

Much love,
