You can be fifty plus, be fit, look fabulous, feel foxy and have a great time……Guys this is directed at you to!
You have learned so much from your past and you still have years ahead of you, you owe it to yourself to be the best version of you!
Have you said to yourself for the last maybe years or months that this is going to be an amazing year. You have decided to go all out by sprucing up your wardrobe, starting a new exercise routine and getting your mojo back. You start with great intentions then you lose your focus and don’t achieve your goals. This then becomes too much and you lose motivation and you feel like a failure.
Change is by Choice!
Making the decision to change is relatively “easy”, continuing the commitment to yourself is where the challenge is, particularly if you have done this before, and in your own eyes “failed”. Therefore you lack confidence to be able to move forward with your plan.
One of the reasons for this could be that you are inexperienced to move forward. You have spent years in your comfort zone and now lack the experience and confidence to be fit, look fabulous, feel foxy and have a great time.
You probably look around and see other women or men who seem to be much more confident than you are. What this means is that with the right support, knowledge and training you can do it too. You can be self confident in any situation with the right support and mindset. The assumption that the way you are is unchangeable is just not true. If you keep saying that this is the way I am, or I am just not self-confident then you will sabotage yourself over and over again.
Sometimes when making changes or doing something new you can become overwhelmed or even doubtful about your ability to learn or apply the changes. Many people believe that because they feel like this in the beginning it is because they are unable to learn or apply the new skills or concepts, what you need to understand is that this initial stage of feeling overwhelmed or doubtful is a normal part of the learning process.

The path to change does not go in a straight line, it goes something like this:
First there is a short burst of improvement then followed by a falling back a little bit, then sticking with it then another little burst of improvement followed by a falling back a little, then another little bit of improvement followed by a falling back and another little burst of improvement and so on…. Said another way the path to mastering the change is “2 steps forward and one step back”.
If you are unaware that this is the process, when you take that one step backwards the tendency is to get discouraged. You may say to yourself “what’s wrong with me I’m just not as confident as I would like to be”. However if you are aware that this is part of the change process, (which is a short burst of improvement followed by a falling back a little, sticking with it, another short burst of improvement followed by a falling back a little) then you will know that when it seems like you are falling backwards, when it seems like you are not making progress then that’s the time to recommit and redouble your efforts because the next big improvement is just around the corner.
You continue to move forward to being fit, looking fabulous, feeling foxy and having a great time and the life changes you make will be lasting.
Just relax and enjoy the journey and you will find that your confidence will continue to increase. You can do this, it is not rocket science, just allow yourself to go through the learning cycle and if you do then you will develop a pattern of unstoppable self-confidence and empowerment.
