Living a fit, healthy, and impactful life.

15 Feb

We all want to be live a successful life but most of us struggle with realizing our potential.  We flail about with no real purpose.  We fail to intentionally design our life and following through with our plan.  Exercise is a key component to living life by design.  Charles Duhigg, in his book the Power of Habit, describes exercise as a keystone habit.  Keystone habits unlock the mystery to building other successful habits.  Here are the secrets tucked away in a successful exercise program.
  1.  Vision - For an exercise plan to be successful you need a clear vision of what you want to accomplish.  Are you trying to lose weight, build bigger biceps, run a marathon, or simply improve your quality of life?  Vision helps clarify what you actually want to accomplish. Many athletes use their vision to develop an actual mental image that propels them forward.  They visualize what a perfect game or race will look like, building purpose into their actions.  Visualize what you want your ideal career to look like.  Picture in your minds eye how you feel with a well developed social circle.  What area of life do you want to improve?  Develop a clear vision of what it looks like to have success in that area.

Add black beans and avocado for healthy fat, fiber, and an iron punch!
