"You can’t change your genetics, but you can change your attitude, your persistence, your environment, the people you listen to and hang around with, and the things you do. You can change, so if you want to, just get started." - Craig Ballantyne
our genetics are your genetics. Maybe Sally next door looks great and eats whatever she wants. Maybe Jonny around the corner stays lean and buff without much effort.
That's not you. They're not you. Get over it.
There are certain things in life that you can't change. Your genetics are one of them. The cards that you were dealt are the cards you're stuck with. The question is, how are you going to play them?
You CAN succeed. You CAN be a winner. But it can never happen as long as you're holding on to excuses.
Many times we get caught up in all the obstacles we're up against that others aren't, and many times, those excuses cause us to delay taking action toward becoming better.
"If only [fill in the excuse], then I'd get started."
No, get started today.
You see, there's a 100% chance you won't achieve your goals if you don't get started. And every day that goes by where that start is delayed, is another day that you accept living a life less than your best.
That's no way to live, and you deserve better than that. You deserve your best. You deserve living, breathing, and enjoying each day at its full potential.
But how can you achieve that?
Drop the excuses and get started today.
It doesn't matter if you're schedule is jammed packed from morning til night. You can prioritize and find time for your health.
It doesn't matter how much money you make. There are many "cheap", healthy options available.
But in order to SEE the solutions, you first have to let go of all the reasons why you can't...because reality is, you CAN.
You can be great. You can soar. You can achieve your every dream.
Where there is a will, there's a way. It's cliche, but it couldn't be more true.
When you want it, there's nothing that can hold you back...no obstacle too big...no excuse worth giving the time of day.
Just get started today. Make the commitment...not another day goes by leaning on excuses, starting right now. You're BETTER than that. Start now.
