1. More Motivation to Help Make Exercise a Habit
In my last post we covered some ways to make exercise a more
regular occurrence in your life.
Today I'd like to give you some cool ways to get and stay motivated so
that you're always juiced up to get in your workout, run, or other
exercise session.
The key is to just get moving!
Motivation Tip #1 - Get Massive Leverage!
Let's say I were to ask for a $10,000 deposit to ensure that you would
do what you said you were going to do. Pretty bold, eh?
Well, don't you think that you might be a little more motivated to keep
your commitments (ie. working out 3 days per week) with so much at
stake? Of course!
This is just one example of leverage. Now, you don't have to involve
this type of money but the trick to find something that motivates you
to take action.
Here are just a few examples of getting leverage...
1. Tell a friend, family member, or co-worker about your plans to
exercise and make sure they keep you on track.
2. Put something on the line that you will have to do (or give up) if
you don't follow through with your commitments. For instance, commit
to eating an entire box of greasy donuts (all 12) if you don't keep your
word - then watch how sick you will feel!
3. Keep a journal or daytimer with specific workouts scheduled into
your days (much like a business meeting). These should be fixed and

2. non-negotiable - you need the time for yourself!
Motivation Tip #2 - Focus on the Outcome and Create Your
Results
By focusing on your ultimate goals you will constantly be reminded of
what you're working towards. This will keep you pumped even when
you feel down and out.
One the best ways to do this is by creating a vision board. This is
essentially a collage of images and words that reflect what you to be,
do, and have. By looking at your vision board your subconscious will
automatically find ways of bringing those results into your life.
My vision board helped me attract the car of
my dreams into my life. The car was literally sitting right in front of me
as I pulled into the dealership!
I show this picture not to brag but because it is a reflection of being
able to manifest what it is that I wanted. It is truly amazing when you
set a goal or intention and see it manifest in real life.
The same can happen for you. But you must believe you can what it is
that you want (ie. a slim body, a sub 4-min mile, etc...) .
Create a vision board for yourself with images and words that excite
you.
Believe you can achieve it - and you will!

3. Eventhough you're envisioning your goals do your best to enjoy the
moment.
Stay in the present and just be.
Notice what thoughts and feelings you're experiencing when you don't
feel motivated and ask yourself "why?"
Then, you can easily change your focus by feeling grateful for what
you already have. Express love and gratitude for what and who you
already are and you will become and have much more!
