The Secret To Lasting Physical Change

By Evan Sanders


"The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new. " | Socrates

One of the most fulfilling and most challenging journeys you'll ever go on is seeing what your body is able to do. Maybe you are in shape, wholly out of shape, or simply expecting to lose some weight. However, developing a body that you really can be proud, one that's healthy, and allows you to really adore each last piece of it actually is an amazing journey to undertake.

So what is the secret behind making a lasting change with your body?

Consistency and commitment.

There's nothing else like coming to the table every single day and giving it your best shot. Your best effort must be yours and yours alone. Don't start comparing your journey to other journeys or else you'll become unmotivated and daunted by the task at hand. Instead, understand that you are competing with yourself and yourself alone. Will there be times on your journey where you try and fail? Yes, many times. But every time you do, you must come back with a firm dedication to achieving something you've always really wanted. Consistency will keep you in the game and on the field every day. Without it, you may suffer the the unavoidable fact of many new years resolutioners who give up every single year on creating the body of their dreams because they lack the power to keep on coming back again and againand again.

Commitment also suggests itself, but not the commitment you're probably thinking of. In our world, we are fed this concept that everything must take place at this time and if it doesn't happen now, it isn't worthwhile. Your body is going to change throughout all the years, so why don't you make a lifetime commitment to keeping healthy? Is that a sexy sellable idea? Not really. But is it something that could truly change the course of your life? Absolutely.

When you make a commitment to keeping your body healthy throughout your whole life, you'll at last reach whatever goal you wish. It's about seeing the big picture than merely the few months in front of you till summer. It is about developing something you can be happy with forever. For me, that concept made my life different as I was able to ultimately hit my health goals after 12 years of wrestling with my body image and food issues. But as soon as I changed my world view of what I was attempting to accomplish, everything I had wished for came to me. So try it on for size and see if it's working for you. Make a lifelong commitment to staying healthy and watch how much your body will change in the short term also.

Bring some commitment and consistency to the table, in all facets of your life, and things will change drastically.
