The Hidden Secret To Lasting Physical Change

By Evan Sanders


"The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new. " | Socrates

One of the most fulfilling and most challenging journeys you may ever go on is seeing what your body is capable of. Perhaps you are in shape, completely out of shape, or just looking to lose some weight. However, developing a body that you can be proud, one that is healthy, and allows you to truly adore each last inch of it truly is an amazing journey to try.

So what is the secret behind making a long-lasting change with your body?

Consistency and commitment.

There's nothing else like coming to the table every day and giving it your best shot. Your best effort must be yours and yours alone. Don't start comparing your journey to other journeys or else you may become deeply discouraged and discouraged. Instead, really try and understand that you are competing against and with yourself and yourself alone. Will there be times on your journey where you try and fail? Yes, many times. But every time you do, you need to come back with a firm dedication to achieving something you strongly want. Consistency will keep you in the game and on the field every day. Without it, you'll suffer the the inevitable and bad reality of many new years resolutioners who give up each single year on making the body of their dreams because they are missing the ability to keep on coming back time and again.

Commitment also comes to mind, but not the commitment you're likely thinking of. In our world, we are fed this idea that everything must happen at this time and if it doesn't occur now, it is not worth it at all. Your body is going to drastically change throughoutthe years, so why don't you make a lifetime dedication to staying healthy? Is that a marketable and packageable idea? Not really. But is it something that would actually change the course of your life? Absolutely.

When you make a pledge to keeping your body healthy all throughout your entire life, you will at last reach whatever goal you wish. It's about seeing the bigger picture than just the few months in front of you till summer. It's about developing something that you can be proud of for ever and ever. For me, that idea made my life different as I was able to eventually hit my fitness goals after 12 years of fighting with my body image and food issues. But as soon as I shifted my view of what I was trying to attain, everything I had wished for came to me. So try it on for size and see if it works for you. Make a lifelong commitment to keeping healthy and watch how much your body will change in the short term also.

Bring some commitment and consistency to the table, in all facets of your life, and things will change significantly.
