I want you to sit and think for a moment. What is it that moves you in life? Is it family? Nature? Sports? What is it that motivates you? What is it that you are always eager to get to? Now ask yourself this. What if you were unable to enjoy those things?
What if your health was so bad that you couldn't enjoy your family activities and they made you too tired? Or what if they are just too difficult to do?
What if you couldn't go out and enjoy a walk in the woods and take in the wild life?
What if you couldn't enjoy sporting events because the excitement of them might be too much for you?
Would life be that enjoyable anymore? Would it be worth it to watch everyone else enjoying the stuff you love while you had to sit on the side lines?
That thing, no matter what it is, is your why. Why you need to eat right. Why you need to exercise. Why you need to take control of your health. That is your motivation. Not some small white guy with an afro and shorty shorts. Your motivation comes from you. All you get from others is encouragement.
You are the master of your health! Take control of it. I can help you. You just have to want it. E-mail me at coach_sean75@yahoo.com if you have questions or need help getting started. Or you can go to Http://beachbodycoach.com/coachseanx.
The ball is in your court! What are you going to do?

Self motivation
Hi! It's me again. I know I haven't blogged in a while but life got a hold of me and I was really busy. I still managed to get my workouts in though. I did not let my busy lifestyle get in the way of my workouts I FOUND the time and if it wasn't there, I MADE the time. I told myself that I was in control of my health and I backed it up.
Many people have daily affirmations that they say. Things like, "I will reach this goal." "I will be happy." And many many more. However they are just words if you don't do what is needed to back up what you tell yourself. Telling yourself that you will lose 3 pounds this week then eating fast food and not exercising everyday isn't going to do it. At the end of the day, if you don't do what you need to then all you are is another day older.
People also set unrealistic goals. This leads to failure and a lowering of their morale. For instance, saying you are going to lose 15 pounds this week is a little unrealistic unless you are on the "Biggest Loser." When you miss the goal you feel demotivated and many times want to give up. Setting a goal such as, 3 pounds is much healthier and easier to achieve.
At the end of the day, when you look in the mirror, you have to be accountable to you.
