MOTIVATIONAL MONDAY

You walk into a Zumba class with an excited mind set, a bit nervous as you have never done it before and have 0 dancing skills, but still excited. Then the class starts, the music gets pumping and the instructor starts moving and shouting. You look around and everyone knows the dance moves and looks like a Justin Bieber back up dancer, while you are in the corner eyes wide open and now feeling stupid. (by the way, I have been here before in a multitude of classes)

NEVER GIVE UP YOUR GOALS! I know how hard it can be to join a new class or start exercising after NEVER having done it since forced PE in high school, but you must remember one thing EVERYONE had to start somewhere. That means YOU have to start mimicking moves you have never done before whether it be zumba, kickboxing or just simply lifting weights.

Programs like P90x might scare the crap out of you and you may think you will never get to that point but I promise you in time YOU WILL!

Do you think Kobe scored 3 pointers without any practice, a good attitude and mind frame? How hard do you think Lady Gaga practiced and struggled to be who she is today? I know these examples may seem extreme but remember that to get ANYWHERE you must get off your BUTT and get moving!


If you get discouraged remember ONE thing, you are still lapping everyone on the couch and that should make you feel better at that moment!

KEEP IT UP, you will be a SHINING STAR IN NO TIME AT ALL!
