Ever poured over magazines, the Internet and watched a movie again just to get a picture of what you want your perfect hairstyle to look like? Then took that picture to the hair dresser, set it down right next to you, explained it was simple, "Make me look like her!", and expected just that? Ever done all that then had the end result be "just not the same"?Sometimes I feel like people come to me as a trainer with a picture of someone else's body in their head. Sometimes they even verbalize it...if I'd just look like "x".
The end result of this type of thinking is the same as the hairstyle...disappointment. Why is that?
When we strive to be anything other than the best version of ourselves we set ourselves up for failure. This is in all aspects of our life. When you focus becomes outward and your only goal to be the same or better as someone else you quit looking inward. You quit learning, growing and changing!
It may be messy and no where near "magazine worthy"...but focusing on transforming yourself into the best version of yourself is the ONLY way to succeed at your goals.
Today, take a moment to visualize the best version of yourself. What are you doing? Who are you with? What have you accomplished? And yes, how do you look? See it, believe it and be it!
