Stay Away from Get in Shape Mindset!

I have heard many people that want to lose weight, always said, “I need to get in shape and burn fat”, or, “I want to get in shape and burn fat.” What you don’t hear them saying is, “I want to get in shape, burn fat, and keep it off”

They may want to stay in shape, but their mindset is focused on getting in shape. That’s why they always looking for the fad diets and latest exercise gimmick on the market. You’re so focused on getting in shape?

A simple change in the “quick fix” mindset to one of long term success will steer you down the correct path. You’ll be less enticed by the late night TV hype, and more focused on doing the right things most of the time. Wouldn’t you agree that lifelong health and fitness is what’s most important?

Of course creating an environment in your body that allows you to burn fat fast is essential to this goal. A person who is in shape in their 50s and 60s is a lot more impressive to me than someone who is lean and fit in their 20s and 30s. That’s because the dedication to maintaining the proper exercise plan and a sensible nutrition strategy for the rest of your life is rare to find. It’s a rare mindset.

If you really want to transform your physique and your health for good, you must make it a lifestyle, a habit. And that starts in your mind. That’s what the people who are lean for life do. In fact, if I think about all of the people I personally know that are in great shape and have been for a while, I start to understand that they have their minds on staying in shape.

They think about it day and night, not obsessively, but with each thing they do…they subconsciously think, “Is this going to positively or negatively impact my long term health and fitness?”. "Am I doing everything I reasonable can to burn fat and live a healthy lifestyle?".

So forgot about “get in shape” mindset!

Right Mindset in Losing Weight

In order to be successful in everything you want, you must have a right mindset, include weight loss. And there are 3 beliefs that you must have:

1. POSSIBILITY: It is possible for you to get a slimmer body.
Possibility is almost always mistaken for competence. We think that something isn't possible, that we aren't able to lose weight when really we don't know how to do it - we don't have the knowledge or resources to be able to lose weight. That’s why you can see many people who have tried countless diets with little or no success. It is possible though, regardless of your situation. You can't prove that it isn't possible - you can only say that you haven't achieved it yet.

2. ACHIEVEMENT: You are able to lose weight or to get a slimmer body.
What are you thinking now…
"I haven't been able to lose weight...yet"
"I can't lose weight...yet"
It is very important not to make excuses for your weight loss failures. If you do not have the knowledge to lose weight, go out and get it. Set tasks that you need to do in order to achieve your slimmer figure.
A belief that you should try to hold is:
"You have not yet reached the limit of what you are capable of"
Keeping this in mind will help you to achieve your weight loss goals.

3. WORTHINESS: You deserve to lose weight or to get a slimmer body.
Do you deserve to lose weight? Does it make you feel uncomfortable to say you deserve to? If it does, this should help you figure out any obstacles that are in your way to achieving your goal. List them and work out how you can overcome them. For the example, I don't have the right way to lose weight - to overcome this I am going to do some research and find a suitable diet program or expert to help me.
