The Fitness Success Attitude

Fully 95% of your emotions are determined by the way you talk to yourself. Reaching your desired level of physical fitness is only limited by the degree to which you're mentally and emotionally fit. When you feed your conscious mind with positive messages such as "I feel happy! I feel healthy! I feel terrific!" you are activating your subconscious mind to go to work at bringing about positive results in your physical life.

Here are 3 mental tools that you can use to bring about positive changes in your physical life and increase your level of fitness:

1. Think about it

The law of attraction states that "you are a living magnet, you will inevitably attract
into your life the people, ideas, circumstances and resources that are in harmony with your dominant thoughts." This simply means that what you think about and believe with conviction will inevitably manifest itself in your life. You get what you think about !

2. Talk about it

The law of affirmation states that "if you tell yourself in positive, personal, present tense statements that you are or have the thing you desire, that very thing will move closer to you." Remember, you control what is planted in your garden. You can grow flowers or you can grow weeds, but if you don't deliberately plant flowers your garden will fill up with weeds by default.

3. Act it

Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "Do the thing and you will have the power." What this means for and I is that we can act our way towards better fitness. If you simply resolve to pretend that you are an actress trying out for the role of a happy, healthy character everyday you will soon notice that you are becoming more and more like the person you wish to be. Fake it until you make it. Your outer life is a mirror reflection of your inner life. The better you feel mentally and emotionally the better you will look and feel physically. Start thinking fit and
soon you will be just that!
