What Does “Get Your Mind Right & Your Body Will Follow” Really Mean

Get Your Mind Right and Your Body Will Follow!

What does it mean to get your mind right and your body will follow?

Your unconscious mind, most people call it your subconscious mind, is the primary driver in your life. It’s the thing that controls 90% to 95% of your actions. Any time that you are unaware of what you’re doing, that you’re going by reflex…That’s your unconscious mind. Any time that you fail to get the results that you consciously want, and that you consciously know that you’re capable of, that’s also your unconscious mind.

Your Unconscious Mind is The Primary Driver in Your Life

So, when I say “Get Your Mind Right.” It means:

Do What You Need to Do to Get Your Unconscious Mind Aligned with Your Conscious Desire to Have Success in Any Given Area of Your Life.

When it comes to your health and fitness; once you get your unconscious mind aligned with your health and your fitness goals, you’re going to start seeing some amazing results. And you’re going to start seeing them really quickly. It may still take some time to get to where you want to be as your end goal or your primary objective at this moment, and getting your unconscious mind on-board will cut out the things like self-sabotage. It will cut out the negative thoughts you night have around your health and your fitness. It’ll cut out the beliefs that are failing to support your health and your fitness.

Get Your Mind Right - It's like Turbo Charging Your Mind!

Simply: It’s like turbo charging your mind when it comes to getting your health and your fitness to where you want it to be. So learn how to turbo charge your mind. Learn how to get your mind right and then your body will follow!

One of the best things you can do to start that is, every night as you’re drifting off to sleep, spend ten minutes visualizing yourself with your health and your fitness exactly how you want it to be. When I say visualizing yourself, what I mean specifically is; as you lay there, when you are relaxed and getting ready to go to sleep at night, you can imagine that you are seeing yourself—through your own eyes—in the condition and with the health that you want to have. See it through your own eyes. Hear everything. Feel everything. Be completely aware and involved in this exercise as you drift off to sleep. And just imagine yourself living your perfect day with your perfect health and your perfect fitness that you want.

Do this for ten to fifteen days. It might be a little hard at first but you’ll figure it out and it will get easier, and easier, and easier as you do it more and more.

So give this a try!

Every night; start visualizing yourself with your perfect health, your perfect fitness, living the perfect day that those allow you to have and watch what starts to happen.

Always remember. Get Your Mind Right and Your Body Will Follow!

What is a Mind, Body, Fitness Coach?

What is a Mind, Body, Fitness Coach?

You might wonder, “What is a mind, body, fitness coach?” What’s up with that? There seem to be coaches for everything these days, from life coach to success coach, to almost anything you can think of…

What a mind, body, fitness coach is, what I do is help people start winning the mental game of fitness. Why is that important?

Everything, all the results you get in your life, everything that you’re experiencing in life, starts with your thoughts, with your mind. If the results that you’re getting—with your health and fitness—are different from what you want, if they are failing to match up with what you want your results to be, then that’s because there’s something in your mind, your thinking, that needs to be changed, to be fine-tuned, adjusted, modified in some way.

For long term health and fitness, you must address your whole mind

What I do is help you get to the point where everything that’s going on in your conscious and unconscious mind matches what you want. When that happens, you can start getting the results that you want!

Your unconscious mind is what’s driving the show. 90% to 95% of everything that you do every day comes from your unconscious mind. Understanding that makes it easy to see that if your unconscious mind isn’t completely aligned with what you want consciously, your results are going to differ from your desires. Simply put, your unconscious mind wins. And that means that regardless of your conscious desires, you get the results that your unconscious mind thinks are best for you.

For clarity, let’s agree that unconscious mind and subconscious mind are the same things. They both refer to all of the thinking that goes on out of your awareness.

If a person has champion thinking, then they’re going to get champion results.

When You Have Champion Thinking, You Will Get Champion Level Results!

Likewise, if a person’s thinking is mediocre, they’re going to get mediocre results.

Change Your Thinking, Change Your Results!

We want to get your thinking where it needs to be for you to get the results that you want with your health and your fitness!

If your health and fitness is currently different from how you want it to be:

  • If you know there’s room for improvement
  • If you know that you could have more energy
  • If you know that you could experience a higher quality of life physically
  • If you know that your productivity could go up and be increased by having more energy, more stamina, more zest for life

Then it means that there is currently something going on in your unconscious mind that is failing to support the goals, the aspirations that you have consciously. And that’s okay because we can get you where you want to be.

That’s what I do. Using behavioral engineering, I get people from where they are to where they want to be by helping them engineer their behaviors and thinking to get the results that they want.

If for any reason, with your health and fitness, you’re failing to get the results that you know you can get and that you want, or even if you’ve had the results you wanted in the past but for some reason you just aren’t motivated anymore or are trapped on that fitness yo-yo, we can fix that. We can help get you to the point where you have the motivation, the desire, the drive necessary for long-term, sustainable health and fitness. We can help you create the mindset necessary to experience long-term, sustainable health and fitness in your life. Once your mind is onboard with the results that you consciously want, you’re going to get those results.

I will help you get the results that you want with your health and your fitness, long-term. When that happens, you can start having the quality of life and the time that comes with that. What happens when our energy is low? It takes us longer to do things. Time is a really valuable resource. When it takes us ten times longer to do things than it should, because we’re lacking the energy and stamina that come from great health and fitness, that’s a lot of wasted time!

You’ll Never Get Back Wasted Time!

When you get your energy dialed in, when you get your health and fitness where it needs to be, and you start taking more control of your time! You start getting more motivation, you start being able to enjoy life more!

When we’re working together, we’ll help you get to the place where you can experience that wonderful quality of life physically, which creates a wonderful quality of life in all areas.

Your body is your temple. Are you taking care of your temple? Are you doing the things that you need to do so that you have a wealth of energy and stamina and productivity and passion and joy in all areas of life?

If your health and fitness and your energy and stamina are things that you could improve, then send me a private message or an email and let’s talk to see what we can do for you.

When to Double Down on Your Health and Fitness

Share

Why You Must Double Down on Your Health and Fitness!

I was taking to a good friend just a few minutes ago about the times when we feel like taking it easy or the times we feel like taking a break. And that reminded me of when I used to do bodyweight exercises all the time because with bodyweight exercise especially, as with all exercises and truly all areas of life, you can workout every day, doing the same exercise, if you want too. The trick is, you adjust your intensity every day. Someone who runs can run every single day. There are days when it makes sense to run harder, to push yourself more and there are days when it makes sense to be easier and have a relaxed, healing kind of a run.

Same thing with working out. There are times when you can blitz the bodypart(s) you’re working and there are times when you can take it easier. I worked legs really hard and have jelly-legs as I record this video. The weak feeling that anyone who works out really hard knows, when you have to grip the handrail for dear life when walking down stairs to keep from falling.

When you feel like taking a break, it's time to double sown on your health and fitness!

After that workout I decided to go have some nature time. I’m out here enjoying this gorgeous scene and I was talking to my friend on the phone and we were talking about how sometimes people say they want to take it easy. Coaching clients will say, “I just need to take a break.”

That’s When You’ve Got to Double Down!

When you feel like you need to take a break, that’s when you’ve got to double down because pushing through the resistance, that’s what’s going to help you bust out to the next level!

Pushing through those times where you’re thinking, “I just really don’t feel like it.” Or, “I don’t want to do it.” Or whatever other excuse your mind throws out at you… Those are the times you’ve got to completely and totally double down on it! Get your butt going where you need to go! Get yourself doing what you need to do! Find a way to push through it!

And pushing through it can be taking it easy in the sense that you are working out more gently than you would otherwise but you’re still there! You’re still showing up!

Showing Up Makes a Massive Difference!

Showing up makes a massive difference because showing up tells your unconscious mind how important it is for you to do what you’re doing!

When you show up on the days when you feel like skipping or during the months that maybe you feel like skipping, when you show up now, more and more during those times, you’re programming your grey matter that that’s a non-negotiable. That you are going to go and do the work. That you’re going to put yourself in the situation. That you’re going to grow your way through it.

The people who are on the fitness yo-yo; those who go until they reach the edge of their comfort zone and then they stop exercising until they reach the bottom of their comfort zone—when they are fed up with their lack of fitness—and then they start getting in shape again… And on and on and on they go, bouncing within the walls of their comfort zone. They are always in that narrow window of growth.

To break through that window, to break through to the other side, to get the true success and the long-term health and fitness, you have got to push yourself to show up on the times when you feel like you want to take a break! Even showing up in a way that’s gentle on your body is still showing up.

Sometimes you just have to remember that doing something smaller is way more important than skipping. If it’s a scheduled day, if it’s a planned day, if you have a workout that you’re supposed to be doing, regardless of the type of workout, if it’s your day to workout and you feel like taking a break… I strongly suggest that you SHOW UP ANYWAY!

Why People Fail And How To Use Failure to Grow

Share

Why People Fail


Before we get into that, let’s discuss, “What is Failure?” Because when you think of the statement, “Why People Fail.” You’re most likely thinking of failure as a horrible result—where the person gets the worst outcome that could possibly happen from the efforts that they’re putting in.

It’s true, that’s one kind of failure. That’s a massive failure. And it happens.

There’s another kind of failure to notice and be aware of.  And that’s the type of failure that happens all the time. It’s the failure that’s a definite and necessary part of the learning process because we can never learn how to do something if we aren’t failing.

When we try something and it works out differently that how we’d expected, that’s a failure.

Right?

How To Use Failure To Grow

You take the results you got. You figure out what part is working and you keep that. The parts that weren’t working you throw out. Then figure out what you need to do differently, and start either over or build on it. It’s taking what works, remembering it, learning from it, and letting go of the rest.

When someone experiences a normal failure that’s a part of the learning process. That’s okay! That’s just part of the gig. That’s how we learn. That’s how we grow! And when we are learning and growing, then failure’s okay.

Failure is part of the normal learning process.

What about the other failure though, the type of failure that happens when people totally self-destruct? Or when everything falls apart? Or something goes horribly wrong and just totally off the rails?

That’s failure’s a problem. That’s a real problem. There are opportunities to learn from that. You have the ability to take what worked and run with it, and grow and build and figure out what you can do differently next time. And there’s also your ability to completely throw it out and start over. Your ability to be the phoenix rising from the ashes—of your life or the event or whatever happened.

What Causes Massive Failure?

That kind of failure though… The massive failure. That kind of failure comes from a mindset that’s unsupportive of what the person is trying to do. It comes across in things like self-sabotage. That type of failure comes around when the unconscious mind is completely unsupportive of what the conscious mind is trying to do. It can also happen when the unconscious mind forgot to unlearn something that it learned in the past, something that seemed to make sense when it learned it but now isn’t working. And maybe it never worked!

Sometimes, our unconscious minds, learn how to do stuff that never really works. But it fills a need and it’s what we know. So we run with it. The way to overcome that kind of failure is to master your mindset, to start doing things that help support your goals, support your dreams, and support the results you want.

We control our efforts 100

We have no ability to control the results we’re getting. But we can control our efforts 100%. And when our efforts are amazing and they’re brilliantly building on what we want to do, then the results are going to come.

We may get the results we want. We may get better results than we want. It’s our job to make sure we have the mindset necessary to get the results we truly desire. And the way to do that is to start paying attention to what you’re thinking.

How To Overcome an Unsupportive Mindset

This is one of the very first steps. Pay attention to your thoughts. Do your thoughts support what you want? Or are you tearing yourself down? Are you your own worst critic? Or are you your best cheerleader?

It’s good to notice what you’re doing that’s working and what you’re doing that isn’t working. It’s great to give yourself feedback and to get feedback from other people. As you know, there’s a difference between giving yourself positive, critical feedback and being critical of yourself.

What are you doing? How do you talk to yourself?

If you were walking down the street and you heard someone talking to a friend, a loved one, or a stranger the way you talk to yourself… What would you think?

What would you think if you heard someone talking to another person the way you talk to yourself_

Consider that for a moment…

What would you think if you heard someone else talking to another person the way you talk to yourself?

That’s what I want you to work on this week. Pay attention to how you talk to yourself. Start noticing, what you say, how you say it, and the emotions that are driving it.

Always remember, you are the master of your destiny!

Love is a Choice-3 Powerful Tools to Help You Deepen Love in Your Relationship

Share

The Power of Understanding that Love is a Choice

I want to talk about the power that comes from understanding that Love is A Choice. Did you know that you can choose love every day? I’m specifically talking about your relationship with your spouse, your significant other, your partner.

Love is a choice. When people first, “fall in love,” it’s the biological reaction, the excitement, the hormones, everything that’s going on that has them feel like, “they’re in love.”

What happens when the initial chemical reactions, when the initial biochemistry that’s going on—that creates that feeling of excitement—wears off?

That’s when the power of choosing love really comes into play.

Choose Love Every Day

We Can Choose Love Every Single Day.

How do we do that? How do we choose love? Start by recognizing what choices increase and decrease the feelings of love that you have for your partner.

What are the feelings that you have about things that they do every day?

Do you remember why you fell in love in the first place?

Are you thinking about things that they do that you find attractive and exciting and things that encourage that wonderful feeling? Or are you thinking about the things that they do that maybe are a little bit annoying? Recognize what choices, recognize the thoughts that you’re having that are either increasing or decreasing the feelings of love that you have for your partner.

As an example, from my relationship with my beautiful wife who I’ve been married to for almost 18 years now; she has some things that she does that, I’m sure if I were to really think about them, I might find annoying. But the thing is, I made the decision a long time ago to let those things just slip on by. And because I put no energy and no focus on those things they’re non-issues. If I were to focus on those things, then it could have an adverse effect on the love that I feel over time. But since I focus on the wonderful qualities that she has, and she’s got a lot of wonderful qualities, then that really helps enhance my feelings of love toward her because I’m choosing love every day. I’m choosing to focus on her good traits. I’m choosing to remember all of the wonderful things that she does. I’m choosing to remember and focus on just how beautiful a person she is and how much she loves to help others and all the amazing things about her.

Thinking about the amazing things about my wife, they are countless and the things that are perhaps less-than-ideal are very few, minuscule in number. So why would I focus on the few things that might be less-than-ideal when there are countless amazing things I can look at?

Are you making choices that strengthen your love?

Are You Making Choices that Strengthen Your Relationship and thus Increase Your Love Every Day?

Do you tell yourself wonderful things about your partner? Do you tell yourself about the things that they do that are less-than-ideal?

Ages ago I used to drive semis, doing construction work. This was in Chicago. There was a man who would routinely complain about the lunch that his wife packed him for work every day. He would sit down at lunch time, pull it out, and he would just whine and complain—quite violently—about what she was making him to eat.

I stopped him one day and I said, “Man, you’re lucky she’s making you lunch!”

What are you going to focus on in your relationship? So, instead of complaining about little nitpicky things, start focusing on the good things.

What are some things that you can do to improve your relationship and increase your love?

Here are a 3 powerful places to start:

1. Remembering Why You Fell in Love:

Remember why you fell in love. Remember all the good things about your partner that you initially fell in love with.

There are some relationships, let’s be honest, there are some relationships where things come out over time, that no matter how much you love the person, are things that you just can’t abide. Okay, if that happens, it’s healthy to have boundaries. It’s healthy too protect yourself, if necessary, and to do things like that. So, this is in no way saying to overlook major things that are dangerous or harmful or that are hurting people. Alright? Let’s be clear on that. Those things need to be taken care of and dealt with accordingly.

What I’m saying is, in a normal relationship where there is just the normal ebb and flow of life; remember why you fell in love. Remember the amazing things about your partner. Remember that initial spark, that initial POW! Remember that. Start thinking about that on a regular basis.

2. Gratitude Journaling About Your Spouse or Partner:

Take a gratitude Journal, and for 30 days I want you to write down at least 10 things every day that you’re grateful for about your spouse. That helps shift your focus to all the wonderful things about them. So for 30 days, start writing down ten things—at a minimum—every day of things that you’re grateful for about your spouse.

Stop taking things personally

3. Stop Taking Things Personally:

And stop taking things personally. People do things, people do things that are weird, that don’t make sense… It isn’t about you. What people do is about them. Stop taking it personally.

For years when my wife, Vauna and I were first married, in the beginning she would have this expression on her face and I thought I was in trouble all the time. I thought that I had done something wrong. Now, that was me. That was my interpretation of what was going on. But one day I wised up enough to ask her, “Hey, what does it mean when you get that expression on your face?”

She said, “I’m just concentrating.”

So, for all that time I had felt I was in trouble, like I’d done something wrong—and again that was all my internal garbage that I hadn’t cleaned up yet. Okay, so let’s be clear on that. That was me. The way that I felt like I was in trouble was about me. Just like when you do things that have you feeling a certain way about yourself, it’s about you. It’s how you’re processing the world.

I was assigning a meaning to a behavior, that my beautiful wife was doing unconsciously, that had nothing to do with me. And once I learned, through asking, that all it meant was, she was concentrating, that alleviated so much stress and frustration that had been caused by that for me.

What is it That You’re Taking Personally That You Can Let Go of Today?

Remember, the things that you can start doing, right now, to increase the love you’re feeling for your spouse, your partner in your relationship.

  • Remember the reasons why you fell in love.
  • For 30 days write down 10 things, or more, every single day in a gratitude journal—that you’re grateful for about your spouse or partner.
  • Stop taking things personally.

Always remember: You Are The Master of Your Destiny!
