It's 99% In Your Head
I have long believed that 99% of success at weight management is all in our heads. How we think about ourselves and what we believe. Tom Venuto's blog posed an interesting question today, one that he believes will change our prospects of success. Here is an excerpt:
"What have you believed in the past… up until now… that you thought was stopping you from having the body you always wanted? Be honest. Brutally honest. Get it out.
"Then, once you’ve done that, take a cold, hard look at what you’ve just written, and ask yourself: “was that REALLY holding me back? "Was it REALLY stopping me or was it just perhaps, slowing me down a bit? Was it just a temporary setback. Was it just self limiting belief? Was it a mere idea in my own head – and that’s all that’s been preventing me from achieving my dreams?”
Venuto also has a summer challenge contest going on, if you care to publicly post your answers to the questions. You can read about it here."And finally, write down, right here, right now, WHY that will never stop you again."
