Sorry about the late post– I’ve been having some serious internet problems!! Better late than never, right?!!!
Anyway, over the weekend I read something that REALLY inspired me– something that REALLY helped me move myself and my energy out of a stagnant place that I’ve been in for a while. So I decided to share it with you!!
From coaching a lot of people with all sorts of health conditions or weight loss goals, I know about the dreaded ‘plateau.’ I know the frustration that comes with putting so much effort into changing one’s lifestyle, diet and habits and suddenly seeing the results just suddenly stop. It is terribly frustrating and I feel for everyone that encounters this, but from working with people who encounter this ‘plateau’, I’ve also seen them move through the ‘plateau’, reach their goals and get to the other side.
Diet and lifestyle are so important– but it’s not everything. There is an emotional and mental component to health and wellness as well, that is just as important. For many, that is the missing link and once they work through certain issues in their life they simultaneously work passed the plateau as well.
A lot of times we associate happiness with reaching our goals. The so-called, “Once I get ___, I will be happy” Does that really happen? I know for myself that the moment I make my happiness depend on something outside myself and something far off in the future, I am setting myself up for disaster.
I’ve also seen how people reach their goals even quicker when they do the opposite– they determine to be happy right now and to enjoy the process. Weight loss, changing one’s diet, getting healthy– these thing don’t have to be a torturous experience– in fact it can be the opposite.
I always think about how ‘Time flies when you are having fun.” The same is true with everything— things happen and they happen quick when you are having a good time!
