what's the difference between interest and a commitment?

...which one have you been practicing? And what are the results?

“There's a difference between interest and commitment. When you're interested in doing something you do it only when it is convenient. When you’re committed to something, you accept no excuses; only results.” Kenneth Blanchard

He said it right, forget everything you ever learned and start fresh right now! Quit your whining, excuses and manipulations to get what you want out of people, and truly become responsible for yourself.

I tell my clients all the time, "I am only a tool on your tool belt and you can use me for information, encouragement and knowledge but only
you
can achieve your outcome.

That is the difference between the clients who succeed on my program, in not only losing weight, but keeping it off for good, and the clients that don't, who grab the tools and hide them away for a rainy day. PS: that day will never be here!!!

In the mean time they use my energy, discipline-nature and empowerment to get a hardcore training session, but once they leave, they automatically revert back to a lower frequency of energy and behavioral pattern losing their since of empowerment! (Reference: "Power vs. Force") great book! When my client grasps this crucial way of thinking, I remove the training wheels.

Bottom line, you have to own your POWER and love yourself enough to do WHATEVER it takes to meet your goals. Your ideas of what you want for yourself are no longer "pie in the sky" daydreams; they are VERY REAL and VERY achievable!

I challenge you to keep it simple this time a'round, release all your fears of failure, look this challenge in the eye and conquer!!!..... I promise you, there are many other important challenges and experiences in life worth fighting for, once you get this one under your belt. So quit being a statistic in this TRILLION dollar fitness industry and remember why you are living.

Love to all.
