Wednesday Motivation !!! By Mike Jones - ACSM, CPT

Today's topic is a little personal but I want y'all to know its ok to...
Get comfortable in your you, or whatever type of weird and crazy that is, even if those things get you results both with your body and life.

Whatever that weird and crazy you may be for you. At the end of the day, be comfortable with your individuality. So many people are going out of their way to fit in and be accepted by everybody. Forget that. Do your thing!

Get comfortable in your you. You may ask me why I use the word WEIRD...because the word "weird" from my understanding and personal opinion means, different, being an outcast of some sort. People that are different see things differently, they don't really go about their life trying to be apart of the things that normal "cool" people would be apart of. I have a great deal of respect of people who are considered weirdos, especially smart weirdos lol. Make happy changes and not stressful ones! Weirdos have been forward thinking revolutionaries, games changes, and world changes for that matter. Learn to accept, hear, process the information and/or what was said, then carry out the actions in your own way. People use to call me weird and crazy because of the way I think and my outlook and my approach on life, and i used to have a big problem with it. But I finally said, if all these amazing things I've accomplished...all the blessings coming my way back to back... the success I've had in different areas of my life and career, all these positive changes to my body-fat%, speed, and mind... if all this came from being a "weirdo" and "crazy".. then I'm going to wear that badge proudly! I use to never be comfortable with how I looked, felt, and if I was happy. So ask yourself when you get your measurements, push for your goals, etc. ask yourself..am I really happy with this weight loss, these inches, this progress, my diet that I'm half way working on, making excuses because I'm tired, etc. Focus on getting your results by any means necessary but the right way.

Don't concern yourself with somebody else's opinion of what your supposed to do with your life, what your suppose to look like, how you workout too much, or how you add/decrease your workload and work ethic...some of those successful people in the world are some of the weirdest, craziest, the oddest, the opposite of whatever "cool" may be just to get to where they want to be!

This year, at this time, at this second..focus on yourself and getting to the results! The "How" process should already be in your head. You're surrounded by the sources and the equipment...now just look in the mirror and ask yourself are you happy, feeling good, and 100% content with your results and body, and life changes...or could you do more? Could you shred more inches? Could you get stronger? Can you eat better? Can you defeat yourself from holding you back?

Every day may not be good and a struggle, or a set back BUT.. there is something good in every day! Even if it is something as small as a loss of .0002 lbs or your able to go a whole cardio class without stopping, or you got your first drop of sweat on a strength day, or how about the fact that you first accepted that your ready to make a turn around so you stepped in the doors at INFINITY PERSONAL TRAINING!!!!
