RE: Be What You Want to Become | How to Achieve Anything In Life
What is one thing that you’ve always wanted to do or be that you continue to put off?
Super lean.
Will you start exhibiting the characteristics needed to do or be what you desire?
Yes, as soon as I can figure out how super lean people get that way.
You just have to do it. You already know what super lean people do. They eat healthy foods and they work out. Just do it. Throw out all your unhealthy food - or donate it :) - and then go buy all natural and healthy foods and then start hitting the gym every single day. Even if you go and just sit there on your off days. You just have to start the habit of going. Continuing is the easy part.
You are absolutely right. I was hiding behind humour. The truth is that I believe we are all motivated by perceived reward. We will continue a behaviour as long as we think the rewards of doing it are greater than the reward of not doing it. So if I want to be lean I have to see the rewards of that as greater than the rewards of another helping or beer or whatever. Which is tough when you consider immediate reward versus delayed reward. So I guess I have to work on that. : )
