Do you lack the motivation to workout?

And when it comes to prepping meals do you lack the desire to get in the kitchen?

Are you sitting there waiting for motivation to hit you?

I had a friend ask me recently “how are you always so motivated to exercise?” and “where do you get your motivation from?” I’ll be completely honest here – I’m not at all motivated to exercise all the time. There are some days where I just don’t want to, and I could very easily come up with a decent excuse to give it a miss: “it’s too hot”, “it’s too cold”, “it’s raining” “it’s so windy” “there’s burpees in the WOD today” – I could go on and on! Let’s be real here, if excuses burned calories, I’d be dead!

At the end of the day it all comes down to excuses or results? You can’t have both.

The principle of motivation leading to action is flawed.

First you take action.

From your action you get results.

From your results you get motivated.

With that motivation you take more action.

And so the cycle continues, but it all starts with ACTION.

So, please, stop waiting until you’re motivated.

Make the decision to do something every day that will get you closer to achieving your goals.

And do it, every day, even when you don’t want to.
