"But I'm not in the mood!" Read this...

Fitness is a decision. But here's the kicker: It's a decision we make every day. And sometimes, clients tell me they're not in the mood for it. Sometimes, I'm not in the mood for it, either.

But what's "it"?

Why do we need to be in the mood for something to do the work? And yes, it's work. Existing isn't work. But living? That's work. Thriving? That's a lot of work.

It's called work because it's difficult. Not because we need to be in the mood for it.

Very few people wake up each day in the mood to eat healthfully or in the mood to exercise. People aren't usually in the mood to push themselves harder than they've pushed before or in the mood to be brutally honest with themselves which can be quite uncomfortable.

Of course, what we're in the mood for is irrelevant to how our body performs or how we exist, live or thrive.

Don't pay so much attention to what you're in the mood for. Pay attention to the work.

Then when you're thriving, you'll be in the mood to continue thriving.

And it makes all of the difference in the world - otherwise, it's just too easy to make excuses and rationalize those excuses. Ready for some unwavering motivation? Join MBT today!
