Healthy Aging Starts with Positive Thinking
Many people wander the earth believing they lack the intelligence, strength, mindset and power to achieve their goals. This negative mechanism holds them down, and keeps them back. You can gain motivation and live healthier, by simply telling yourself I can do it. The old cliche, that "
ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, IF YOU PUT YOUR MIND TO IT" is so true, if you really and truly put your mind to it.
How to tell self "I can do it" when it comes to life and fitness Goals:
Just say today I am going for a short walk. Tomorrow I will walk a little longer then the first day. You have to be in control of your thoughts, actions, behaviors, etc by building your power of the mind.
Nevertheless, if you do not put your mind to it and you decide that you do not want to become active, then you are only living a life filled with shortcomings. Your negative reflections will defeat the purpose of getting your thoughts in control.
Saying I will do it later, is another negative reflection. This is called procrastination, which leads to laziness. Laziness leads to weak muscles and joints, which gradually builds up to medical problems.
Take control of your thoughts. If you want to do something bad enough you will do what you have to do to get where you want to be. You need to make a goal and stick to it. Create plans that help you to reach your goals, and take action each day to achieve them.
When you give up, it is a sign that you lack faith in self and it is a clear indication of weakness. You need faith to stay strong, just as you need positive thinking to strive.
Good results:
Having a positive attitude will give you a jumpstart to a healthier life in 2018. Keep on pushing. Do not stop once you get started instead keep pushing until you reach your goal. When times get hard and you don't think, or feel you can go on just keep saying, "I can do this" while always keeping your head up in triumph and your mind open. Don't dwell on something you can't change, rather focus on the things you have the power to change.
How to continue positive living:
To stay positive you have to admit your feelings and express them. If you feel depressed or frustrated, just say it aloud. There is nothing wrong with showing emotions, providing you stay in control and learn to express what you feel.
You have to talk about how you feel and don't blame yourself, or others, but instead, try to figure out why you are so depressed or frustrated. Failing to discover your intentions or reasons will reduce your control, especially if you do not understand your "WHY". Do not worry about the cause, rather find your "WHY", and the cause will come to you.
Here are some pointers that might help you to get where you want to be.
- Find a good role model and become acquainted with their way of thinking positive.
- Try to talk positive and avoid any negative talk at all cost.
- Seek some support from friends and family.
- Reward your self with a massage or try meditation.
Make a plan and stay with it no matter if its a change in fitness, or life in general. Just remember you can do whatever you want to do and keep your mind set, and positive energy for the good things and not the bad things. This will make you feel better and make you a happier person.
Being happy, can lead to a healthier life. Don't forget to create a goal. Don't make the goal so high that you won't be able to achieve it, doing this can lead to disappointment and discouragement. Instead ensure your goals are realistic, and obtainable. By doing this, you can foster motivation, keep the fire burning inside, while readjusting accordingly as each goal is met.
