Wouldn’t it be amazing to have confidence every day?

Guess what? You can.

What if I told you there is a science to that magic?

Confidence is a skill, it’s an emotion. You can create confidence so that you can not only crush your fitness goals but any goal you set your mind to go after.

Confidence can be learned, practiced, and mastered–just like any other skill.

Confidence building is a gold mine because when you lack confidence, it puts a ceiling on your potential.

Tapping into your confidence is important because it connects you to the goals you want to pursue in your fitness and your life. So, how can you build confidence? Tune in to this episode today!

I’m sure you know people you consider confident, right? They are positive and they face fears head-on and they tend to be risk-takers. They inspire confidence and admiration in others.

Below are 5 ways to help you trick your brain into thinking you’re all that—CONFIDENT!

1. Practice Positive Self-Talk

Low self-confidence is often caused by the negative thoughts running through our minds on an endless track. Our brains are hardwired to defend ourselves, and look for danger & worst-case scenarios instead of looking at something like an opportunity.

Recent events are a great example of this, you need to override this, and put a positive talk track in your head to get in the game like, ‘I love myself’ or ‘I appreciate my body because it can do amazing things.’

Science proves that affirmations boost confidence.

Any time you have low expectations you tend to sink down to meet those expectations, affirmations are a way to neutralize those thoughts and succeed.

Our words run our brains. Get rid of thoughts like ‘I hope I can do it.’ Instead, say to yourself, ‘#I’veGotThis!’

You can absolutely do anything you set your mind to do and even accept failure. There is a solution to everything. Succeeding through adversity is a great confidence booster.

2 . Greet everyone like they’re an old friend.

When you greet people with a smile it portrays confidence! Try it!

Greet everyone with a “Hey! How are you? Good to see you.”

Look them in the eye & give a genuine compliment. Think about how can you make their day better. What if you tried to help one person every day, how would that make you feel?

Let me know in the comments if you do this already!

3. Feel the fear and do it anyway.

A recent study found that 70% of people suffer from imposter syndrome, feeling not worthy or good enough. Perfectionism or comparison can hold you back too especially when you are trying new things.

I know I have felt this way, I found that when I let go of picking apart the videos I create and just try to help you guys, it’s more fun! Because perfection doesn’t exist.

Let me know in the comments if you’ve ever felt this way?

Instead, you can MANAGE your CONFIDENCE-KILLING THOUGHTS

It’s natural to feel fear or worry when you’re doing something you’ve never done before, I know I have. “Courage isn’t action in absence of fear; it’s action in spite of fear,” Fear is just here to keep you safe, do it anyhow!

Let me know in the comments if you’ve had to act courageously in the last few years?

Meditation is one of my favorite ways to push through fear. When negative thoughts come up, I recognize them as thoughts and release them.

A study found that 20 minutes of daily meditation controls your attention & connects you with the brain allowing you to disengage from distraction. I know for me this really helps.

4. Use your Body Language to your advantage!

Another way to boost your confidence is to pay attention to your body language. Just the simple act of pulling your shoulders back gives others the impression that you are a confident person, try it.

Changing your body language to stand taller and take up more space increases your testosterone levels and decreases the amount of the stress hormone cortisol that is released into your brain, making you feel more powerful and confident throughout the day.

Studies also prove there is a link between posture and confidence and that sitting up straighter can boost positive beliefs in yourself as opposed to being in positions of slouching or looking down, which can lead to negative thoughts.

5. For tough times, when all else fails: Create a great list of things you are happy about.

Life is full of challenges and there are times when it’s difficult to keep our self-confidence up. Sit down right now and make a list of all the things in your life that you are thankful for, and another list of all the things you are proud of accomplishing. Put that list on your phone or bathroom mirror–somewhere where you can easily be reminded of what an amazing life you have and what an amazing person you really are.

If you feel your self-confidence dwindling, take a look at those lists and let yourself feel and be inspired all over again by you.

These are 5 Powerful Ways to Boost Your Confidence to give you the power to conquer the world. Let me know if you’ve used any of these techniques before? If if you’re going to?

These things go both ways just like happiness leads to smiling, but also, smiling leads to happiness.

The Shocking Truth About Motivation

No Comments on The Shocking Truth About Motivation

The secret to achieving success in every area of your life is to develop motivation it helps you to avoid temptation and distraction — which in turn helps you to crush your goals.…

As a successful person, you already know that motivation influences achieving your goals in business.

However, “Success doesn’t come from what you do occasionally it comes from what you do consistently“—David Beckham

What you need are the strategies and habits to stay motivated that help you to hit your weight loss goals.

If you’ve ever struggled to stay motivated to diet or exercise even when you want to lose weight, you’re not alone.

This is because motivation alone doesn’t work.

This video is about what does work so that you can succeed in your weight loss goal because motivation doesn’t show up every day.

When you first decide to start a diet or exercise routine, you’ll need motivation. But motivation alone doesn’t work because motivation comes and goes! There are going to be times when you just don’t have it and you don’t feel motivated, even when you have a great reason WHY you should be motivated, there will be days when that’s simply not enough.

So what does work if motivation doesn’t?

Habits are what keep you going. Once we create a pattern or routine, the human brain is hardwired to repeat that routine.

If you’ve created a healthy nutrition or workout routine, even on the days that you don’t feel like it, you do it anyway because it’s what you do. So you don’t need motivation. If you have a habit, you’re just going to keep doing what you’re doing. Let me know who’s already doing this?

Rather than trying to think of how to get yourself motivated, think of how you can change your habits and create a better routine.

Here are 7 Tips to Change Your Habits For Weight Loss Success:

Tip #1 – Try pairing healthy habits with a habit you already have.

You already eat lunch every day so start taking your vitamins with lunch. You won’t ever forget to take your vitamins because you’re probably not going to skip lunch.

Tip #2 – You can also break up with bad habits by un-pairing them.

If you tend to snack while watching TV at night, read a book instead or anything like a podcast that will occupy your mind when you are tempted to snack.

Tip #3 – Brush your teeth as soon as you’re done eating.

This will help you break up with snacking between meals. Usually, when you brush your teeth that signals your brain that you’re done eating, it also creates a minty taste that you don’t want to mess up with food.

Tip #4 – Form new habits by recruiting a buddy.

Take your dog for a walk every morning, or meet a friend at lunchtime for a walk, or meet your spouse at the gym before or after work. If you recruit someone else to do it with you, then you aren’t just keeping a commitment to yourself but also to someone else. I guarantee you the dog isn’t going to allow you to skip that morning walk when you’ve made it a routine.

Tip #5 – Keep a bottle of water with you at work all day long, to make sure you get your water in.

Tip #6 – Take the stairs every day at work or at home instead of the elevator.

Tip #7 – Reach out to one of your friends or co-workers to suggest taking a 15-minute walk each day at lunch to chat.

Exercise is so powerful for feeding your mind and changing the way you feel in uncertain times, pick one thing either start walking your dog every morning or pick a workout and commit to doing something to move your body on a daily basis to get in 20 minutes of exercise. I am committed to working out who else is with me?

You that you are the CEO of your health and wealth. Commit, right now to one new habit that is going to carry you through when motivation won’t. For more info on crushing it message me!

When it comes to your body, YOU get to choose to be in charge!

Mastery over the body is difficult these days but not impossible. The word itself implies I’m possible.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

To gain mastery over your body and lose weight, you’ve got to do things differently.

It all starts with harnessing the power of your mind, and you’ll be able to achieve remarkable results.

“The will must be stronger than the skill.” — Muhamed Ali

When you master the will, your weight loss goals will finally be within your grasp.

Imagine how great that will feel!

It builds confidence, self-esteem & discipline. That’s what’s possible for you!

I’m going to give you the 3 Keys to Losing the Last 10 Pounds and Melting the Belly Fat Without Spending Hours in the Gym.

I’m here because I used to struggle with eating too much on the weekends and find myself starting over every Monday. That was frustrating! I think I could eat anything because I worked out. And then I realized it wasn’t working for me, so I had to figure out a sustainable system that works. That’s the inspiration for sharing my secrets with you.

Here are the three keys my clients use, and they’ll work for you too if you take action.

Key #1

Here’s the Real Secret…Mindset Matters. The great news is once you realize that you’re 100 % responsible for your results then you can take charge and change it! Everything in your life is a result of the choices you made. If you want a different result, make a different choice! You get to design your goals, outcomes & action plan.

Here are four high-performance mindset hacks:

FIDO – when you slip up, Forgive It, Drive On!
Do what others won’t today, so you can do what others can’t tomorrow.
Within you right now is the power to do things you never dreamed possible. This power becomes available to you just as soon as you can change your beliefs.
Write your goals down and read them to yourself 3-4 times every day.

Key #2

My top tip for weight loss & melting the belly fat is meal timing. When you eat matters just as much as what you eat! This is one of my top secrets for weight loss! Imagine, this burn fat — even while you’re sleeping while improving your blood pressure, blood sugar and while raising your human growth hormone levels to age better too!

Key #3

You need to create a calorie deficit. How much you eat and what you eat is the science behind weight loss. You have to cut some calories and clean up your diet—meaning, your diet should be high in protein consisting of lean meats, protein powder, fish, green veggies, healthy fat, and low in carbohydrates.

You will also need to cut back on the empty calories of alcohol, processed foods and sugar!

With this in mind, start with cutting 250 to 500 calories from your diet. When you get the right combination of the right ingredients with the right timing, you’ll beat hunger and burn off belly fat. The best way to stay on track with the math is through tracking, I have my clients track with myfitnesspal. Studies prove that it will increase your weight loss success levels by 30%!

My question to you is…are you ready?

Your fitness goals can finally be within your grasp.

If . . . you have what it takes to be coachable and have the mental strength required…

If you’re a busy executive looking for the fastest path to weight loss & have what it takes to be committed and decisive…

10 Tips To Becoming Bulletproof

No Comments on 10 Tips To Becoming Bulletproof

We’ve all been through so many ups and downs. This blog topic is about becoming resilient, stronger and a more powerful YOU.

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like we are all going from one traumatic thing to the next?

BEING BULLETPROOF IS A MINDSET STRATEGY. Having a healthy body and mindset is also mission-critical to aging backwards.

Today, I am going to cover how I help my clients on a daily basis to have an Unstoppable Body & Mindset for mental and physical strength.

Remember: The secret to transforming your diet, fitness and mindset is to make small changes & build them up over time—no matter how many ups and downs life throws your way.

Your bulletproof strategy is to make small choices that matter. Positive change starts to build up over time to create lasting results and self-confidence.

Let me know if you are doing any of these strategies or if you have any suggestions that work for you!

Here are 10 things to check off:

1. Did you meditate this morning?

2. Did you take a cold shower? This will pump your body full of energy.

3. Did you walk 20 minutes today?

4. Did you choose one thing to be grateful for? Here’s why — Gratitude helps you build your happiness. Find something you’re grateful for today and write it down, or take some time to think about it. Focus on the feeling it brings up for you.

5. Did you drink more water? Your liver, kidneys, and skin — depend on water to do their jobs effectively.

6. Did you lift the weights? I love 20 minutes of high-intensity interval training or Tabata to torch fat. It gives you the exercise benefits in less time. This strategy alternates between short, strenuous exercise and periods of active rest or cardio and strength moves back-to-back. For example, a 60-second cardio sprint, followed by push-ups.

7. Did you skip breakfast? Intermittent fasting can increase your lifespan and make you more resilient to stress, I love it for the increased mental clarity. My client, Mark, just lost 10 pounds of fat and gained more energy while increasing his Human Growth Hormone levels!

8. Did you eat more fat and protein, and fewer carbs to have even levels of energy? Carbs from bread, cereal, oatmeal, and sugary foods zap your energy and lead to brain fog and inflammation. Carbs will also send your blood sugar into a yo-yo—meaning you’ll crash and burn by lunch.

Fat gives you stable energy for hours and pushes your body to burn fat for fuel. Start by removing carbs from breakfast. Instead, push back breakfast & have eggs with avocado or some wild salmon on a salad for lunch. I just drink a cup of Bulletproof Coffee and encourage my clients to do so too for laser-sharp focus!

9. Did you eat your colors in every meal? Brightly colored vegetables contain fiber and antioxidants. This helps you fight off inflammation and disease.

10. Did you stretch or foam-roll today? Foam rolling is different than stretching. It breaks up knots in your muscles to restore normal blood flow. Foam rolling will likely hurt if you’re not used to it. Do it anyway. You’ll increase your range of motion and decrease pain!

Stretching increases blood flow to heal your muscles, helps prevent injury, thus building stronger joints. I love yoga it’s a great way to learn how to stretch and move your body, you get tons of other benefits too!
