What resonates with me most about this quote by my boyfriend James Clear (although James doesn’t know it or me…LOL! My husband just rolls his eyes every time I call him that🙄 Heehee!) is the last line:
“To crave the result but not the process is to guarantee disappointment.”
Boom. So true, isn’t it? Want to lose weight or get healthier but feel like the process is overwhelming, tedious and uncomfortable?? I think we have all been there before. At least I have and my personal experience is exactly why I set out to become an expert in Health & Wellness Coaching. There is always another way to accomplish any goal and once I was able to grasp the magnitude of this simple concept on my own weight loss journey everything and I mean EVERYTHING changed for the better! I became a Coach b/c I LOVE partnering with others and asking questions to help them figure out what those other ways might be for them!!!!
Rather than asking yourself dead end questions like: “What’s wrong with me?” or “Why can’t I just naturally live at a healthy weight?” or “Why can’t I have more will power?” try asking yourself this question:
“How can I fall in love with the PROCESS of __________ ?” Fill in the blank with whatever you really, really want!!
❓What parts of the health and wellness journey do you truly enjoy???
❓Instead of focusing on what you think is wrong, what is RIGHT about how you are right now?? In what ways are you already awesome???
❓What are you already naturally strong in….what are your strengths…..and how could you use leverage them to help you achieve a healthy weight or anything else you want?
❓How does living a healthy lifestyle that supports a healthy weight line up with your core values??? (This question often leads to taking a deeper dive into what your core values actually are and why😊)
❓How could we make this process fun and enjoyable so that it can be your “new normal”????
