Gratitude is the Best Attitude
As part of our Fit for Fall Challenge, we are going through the Healthy Mind and Body program. I have done this program before and I learned so much great information. It was designed to teach different methods to help you become the person you want to be – physically, mentally, and emotionally! Throughout my first sixty days of consistent 10-15 minute coaching, I was really challenged to work on what I focus on daily, especially mentally. These points have really pushed me to establish new patterns of thinking in my everyday life!
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used to create them.” – Albert Einstein
After reading this quote, it is important to think about and realize the high impact that YOUR FOCUS has on you! Here are the Four Laws of Focus:
- What you Focus on you Find
- What you Focus on Grows
- What you Focus on Seems Real
- What you Focus on Ultimately You Become
What you focus on either supports your goals or challenges your goals – but it is all part of your growth! Really think about what you focus on. Think about how your focus influences your everyday life patterns or habits.
Do you have patterns or habits you need to break?
How do you interrupt a pattern or habit that is not pushing you toward your best self?
In our program, we are reminded that I CAN BREAK ANY PATTERN OR HABIT AT ANY TIME THAT I CHOOSE!
In addition to Focus, here are 3 other disciplines to create patterns in your life that will support your goals:
- Focus
- What You Say to Yourself
- Your Body Language
- Gratitude
–WHAT YOU SAY TO YOURSELF–
Improve your Self-Talk! Give yourself confidence through the thoughts about yourself. Tell yourself things like I AM GOOD ENOUGH!!
–YOUR BODY LANGUAGE–
Your body language portrays 55% of your communication. Stand Strong even if you are still becoming or even learning how to become the person you want to be
–GRATITUDE–
The foundation to all growth is being grateful for everything in your life, even if it is not ideal right now. Gratitude is a high-energy emotion. It brings positivity into your life and creates better self-talk. When you feel grateful for the things you’ve once perceived as negative and view them as opportunities to grow and learn, you develop the necessary skills to bring you closer to the ideal person you want to become.
“Develop an attitude of gratitude and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better than your current situation.” – Brian Tracy
