• With today’s digital world we have some much more pulling for our attention. This can be a good thing or bad, depending on what your attention is focused on.

    Not everything is what it seems, and not everyone is honest. Some social media influencers can be leading you in the wrong direction.

    You must do your due diligence and don’t always follow blindly.

    Where you put your attention is more important than you know. Be curious but cautious, be willing to experiment but also have the knowledge to stop.

    Your Goal This Week- Really think about where your attention is going. If you feel like something is wrong, then trust that instinct. Focus on what really matters to you and not on what the outside world is telling you to do. Your path is yours to make, so make sure your attention is on the right outlook.

    That’s it for Monday Motion, remember you don’t need motivation, you just need to keep moving forward. Let’s go out and tackle the week ahead.

  • As the weekend approaches, here is a quote that will keep you focus.

    “If you are positive, you’ll see opportunities instead of obstacles.” – Confucius

    Being positive is an action we all can take and it’s completely in our control. We can’t stop anything that happens outside of us but our thoughts.

    When you start to enlighten yourself with more positivity, your world begins to open up.

    The opposite is also true with negativity, if your mind is consumed by it nothing will ever feel right.

    Your mind is the gateway to the direction you want your life to go. Once you learn to control it, no obstacle is too big.

    True opportunity awaits those that are willing to see them. Your thoughts are the key to unlocking your potential, don’t let negativity take hold of you.

    Positive thoughts are made to transform you.

    Have a great and blessed weekend and I’ll see you back here on Monday.

  • Sometimes strength training gets a bad rap, for example, some woman don’t do it because they feel it will make them bulky or strength training can hurt me. These false assumption can be holding some people back.

    If done right, strength training is one of the most, if not the most, beneficial activities you can do for yourself.

    As we age our muscles and bone density begins to decline. To help your body fight this problem is to strengthen those muscles and bones.

    It’s unfortunately going to happen to all of us, it’s no way we can be 20 forever. Our muscle mass is going to decrease, our joints are going to become less flexible, and our heart is not going to have the same power.

    Strength training will not eliminate these things, but it will make sure the decline is not too severe.

    If you want to keep moving into old age, start strength training today. It doesn’t matter your age, just start slow and gradually increase as you go. Your older self will thank you.

  • Subconscious, even though it seems invisible we all have it. Deep inside us it quietly reinforces what we think of ourselves. This is why it’s necessary to control the narrative of the conversations we have with ourselves.

    The first thing that must be done is to eliminate negative self talk. These are the bad things you say about yourself or the situation you find yourself in.

    Once negative self talk is out the way, you start to build on the positive side of your life. If you think you don’t have any, then this is the thing you must change.

    In order for you to improve your subconscious mind you must feed the right information. This means the people you allow in your life should be right for you, and that goes to the environment as well.

    Once you get these things in check, you will slowly, but surely get your subconscious to react in a more positive light. And like most things it will take time, but it’s time worth taking.

  • With so much negativity out in the world it’s easy to get sucked into it. We need to be mindful of what, who, and where we spend our time.

    Being around more positivity will fuel you to take on the days most difficult tasks. Using the right energy can make a huge difference in your life moving forward.

    You can determine how your days, weeks, months and even years go with your energy selection.

    Your Goal This Week- Look closely at your life, is it filled with negativity? If so, decide to make the switch. Start to look at life through a new lens. Everything around can be positive even if it doesn’t seem so. That job that turned you down can just be the set up for the next. That relationship that never quite worked out can be just what you need to make the next one better. Feed off the positive energies of your life and it will turn out to your favor.

    That’s it for Monday Motion, remember you don’t need motivation, you just need to keep moving forward. Let’s go out and tackle the week ahead.

  • As the weekend approaches, here is a quote that will keep you focus.

    “One can choose to go back to safety or forward toward growth. Growth must be chosen again and again; fear must be overcome again and again.”- Abraham Maslow

    Every step you take forward is one that’s taken toward discomfort. The future is uncertain and that what makes it scary.

    Stepping back into your comfort zone can seem good at the time, but can also leave you with regrets.

    Regret of what you didn’t do, regret of the opportunities you let slip away, regret of where your life ended up.

    You don’t want that for your life so you must embrace the fear, embrace being uncomfortable.

    This is the only way to grow, this is the only way to step out and transform yourself.

    So forget safety and go after what makes your heart beats the most.

    Have a great and blessed weekend and I’ll see you back here on Monday.

  • We live in a society that praises the person that skips a goodnight sleep to get to the office first. What we don’t take in account is that person is eventually going to burnout, and it’s not going to be good.

    We are not meant to be a slave to the work, sacrificing sleep to get ahead. It’s always a better way, and getting enough sleep is that way.

    Without good sleep our health will suffer and we will start to decline. When this happens our work begins to take a turn for the worse.

    Sleep is just as important as the food we choose to eat, and the fitness we do on the regular. In fact, without sleep those two things can be hard to do.

    This is why it’s called beauty sleep, because without it, it’s no beauty in life.

    The work can wait, and will even be better if you prioritize sleep. So make it a point to get to bed on time.

  • You hear a lot about routines and most about them are positive. But sometimes it can do some harm, here are a few routine traps you can fall into:

    Time Doesn’t Match- If you get too fixated on a routine and the time doesn’t match, you can find yourself missing a lot. Missing workouts, missing journaling because it’s not at the time you want it. Listen, life will happen, sometimes you have to squeeze that workout in a little later than usual. Don’t let a routine stop you from doing what must be done.

    Can Lead To Boredom- Setting routine everyday can lead to boredom. No one can stick to the same old routine and not get sick of it. It’s always good to mix things up, keep it exciting. For example, you can change up your workout routine, this way you not just going through the motions.

    Can Become Stressful- At times a regular routine can having you stressing if you happen to miss it. You start to beat yourself over the head, making the situation even worse. If you learn to adapt to life instead of being rigid, you can find peace of mind.

    I’m not knocking routines, they can be great, but you got to realize not everything will go as planned. Being able to be change up when life throws you curveballs is your best bet. Keep your routine, but don’t let them control you.
