I recently spent time with my longtime Mentor and my group of fabulous colleagues and friends. We don't see each other often, but as good friends, we always pick up where we last left off. I have not seen these people in a year or more, and within that year's time, I have worked on weight loss and changed physically in a significant way.
Naturally, when you look differently and things are going well, people are curious and interested in what you have been up to! I told them about the plan I follow and what impressed my friends is that the plan is actually a lifestyle, not just a diet.
I have come to realize that my weight loss plan is my lifestyle. To put things into another perspective, let's say your weight loss lifestyle is actually your career. As I said before, you are the Chairman of the Board, and the CEO of your life!
Take a look at it this way. Most people are really into their career, work hard to do well, get ahead, and to earn that paycheck. Why not apply those values to your weight loss choice and work as hard for yourself as you do in your chosen profession? And what about the paycheck for this? An amazing paycheck of well-being, health, control of your life, feeling good and feeling positive and confident! All those things money can't buy, right? So, it makes sense to make your weight loss plan your lifestyle and your career!
I'm a firm believer in once you set your mind to something, you can do it and you can make anything happen! That said, set your mind to do a plan, make the commitment, make it your successful career and enjoy the benefits of You, Inc!
