Article 004: You are A Pioneer and the biggest obstacle on A Journey
In less about 325 words, I'm going to explain that creating a better body requires a journey where the biggest obstacle you will face is you, your inner voice and your internal demons.
Now that you've started, you are striving to become consistent, and you know how to measure your daily success (see previous articles as references).
Now it is time for you to accept and prepare for the fact that this is a journey, and sadly you are the biggest obstacle to successfully completing it.
As you go about exercising, eating better, getting rest and removing stress from your life, you're going to face opposition.
Some of that opposition is going to come from people you love. Some of it will be the weather (too hot, too cold or too perfect) or that you’re too busy, too tired or it’s either too early or too late.
Everything will become an excuse or reason not to do what you committed to do.
This is because your biggest opposition is YOU, that voice in YOUR head and YOUR INTERNAL DEMONS that don’t want you to succeed.
Those excuses about being too hot, too cold, too snowy, too perfect and your willingness to listen to others are more about what is going on within you than anything outside of you.
So, that means, if you want this journey to be successful, you must stop making excuses and start creating reasons for why you want to be successful with this journey.
You cannot succeed when you're focused on the inconvenience of today.
You MUST COMMIT TO AND BE FOCUSED on the benefits you will get tomorrow!
Benefits that include improved health, fitness, strength, mobility, energy, confidence and discipline. Which will create better results in your career, relationships and hobbies and the fact that you will live longer and better so you will enjoy travel, your grandchildren and that special person you love through a long, long retirement).
