We always seem to find some type of excuse for delaying the start of a new weight loss or fitness routine. It’s easy to justify our actions with phrases like, “Since the week is half over, I’ll wait Monday to start exercising”, or “As soon as the holidays are over, I’m going to loose weight”. My question to you is, “If not now, then when?”
If every minute of an unhealthy lifestyle increases your risk of disease, why would you wait one more second to get started? The idea that you have to prepare before you start or start at the beginning of a week or after a holiday is ludicrous.
It’s great to have a solid plan of action for your body, but no plan of action needs to be set in stone before you get started. You only need a vision. Your vision will become a goal and your goal will develop into a plan. Your plan and your successes will be measured, assessed, tested, and turned into new goals. All these things you will need to refine your plan of action, but not to get started.
All you need to do to get started is to set aside the time. You must make exercise a priority in your life. It’s amazing how much time you can find for sleep when you cannot hold your eyes open. When you become ill, don’t you take time off to recuperate? So why is it so difficult to find the time to exercise? If exercise can provide you with more energy and assist in preventing some very notable medical conditions, why delay? Start today! Do not wait for tomorrow because I guarantee you that another day passing will just provide you with another excuse to delay.
