Dedication

Dedication.. what does that word mean to you???

Its such a strong word, say it a few times over and over....

In life we are dedicated to so many things. We are dedicated to our family, our friends, our work, our social activities, our pets. But what is the one thing that people tend to forget about... our bodies!!

If your car runs out of fuel, you put fuel in it so it can run smoothly, If it breaks down, you take it to a mechanic. If your roof is leaking, you get it fixed. Why is it that we are so dedicated to fixing all those problems, but when it comes to our bodies, we tend to let things slide?!?!

We, as people, always tend to put ourselves last. I bet if we were to write a "to do" list, there wouldn't be one mention of something "to do" for YOU on it!

Why is that? Why do we put everything ahead of the one thing we need to live a LONG and HEALTHY life.
Is it ignorance? Is it that we are scared? Is it that we are oblivious? Or is it that we are in denial?

Whatever the reason is.. you need to make a shift in our thoughts and start to put yourself 1st, 2nd and 3rd. YOU are the only one who is in control of your happiness, YOU are the only one who is in control of your HEALTH, you are in the drivers seat of your life, and you only get one shot.. So what do you think you need to do????!!!

Start by setting goals, they don't have to be huge goals, start small and work your way up. We all need something to work towards in life. The feeling of achievement once you have achieved your goal, is a wonderful feeling. it gets you excited and inspired. It starts a snowball affect, and before you know it, you will soon be kicking goals left, right and centre!

Surround yourself with supportive, positive people. This is HUGE. If you are always around negative people, you will fall into their trap of feeling like the world is against you. What would you rather be, a 'puller', someone who sits back and watches the people around you climb their way to the top with a 'poor me' attitude, putting the climbers down. Or be a climber, someone who climbs their way top with the support of the people around you. Which one would you rather be?


Time is precious peep's, every minute of every hour, of everyday you will never get back. You gotta grab the bull by the horns and LIVE!

Dedicate your life to you, and make the most of it!

I am going to leave you with the words of wisdom that I live by...

"take care of your body, its the only place you have to live" - Powerful stuff!!!

Til next time
