Preachy Chad - Staying Motivated


Stay Motivated.
                Everyone has, at one point in their lives, thought to themselves "Why am I putting myself through this? It would be easier to quit." This terrible mindset can cause personal goals to become unreachable, and will ultimately lead to failure. Here are some ways that I keep myself motivated, both in the gym, and in the real world as well.

                Focus on the positives instead of the negatives. If you can't make gains, just keep trying until you do. Take pride in all of your achievements ( even the tiny ones), and don't take anything for granted. Don't allow failures to discourage you. If anything, failures are just stepping blocks to success, and every time you try to overcome the obstacle again you will learn more about yourself.

                Be proud of the sacrifices that you are making to accomplish your goals. It takes a lot of perseverance to achieve greatness. Give yourself a pat on the back every once in a while!

                Most importantly, I ask myself why I started in the first place. Remember how passionate you were at the beginning of your journey? Your reasons for starting must have been good. Remind yourself what your reasons were in the first place, and realize how much distance you have covered.

                A positive thought process yields positive results. Never stop chasing your goals.
