Workout Done!
Workout done!!!! I usually take Sundays off but yesterday I UNPLUGGED from everything so had to make up BOOTY day today!!!!
We all need to have a day of self care....and yesterday was that day for me. I researched cute patio ideas and spent money on Amazon....so yea. It's been a PERFECT weekend π
How was yours!?!?! Do you get energy from staying in or going out!?!? I definitely love my sweats and lounging π
Be Nice
It's such a freeing feeling to know you don't have to put up with crap from people! π
As a former dysfunctional people pleaser I realized I would NEVER find true happiness by trying to be everyone's best friend and that meant I had a lot of negativity that I was surrounding myself with. I Had to remind myself some people are mean to others because they are sad, insecure and always want to play the victim so they don't have to take responsibility for the hand life has dealt them.
Its true. I know because I was that way! I was jealous, easily offended and not going anywhere in life until I took responsibility and decided I wanted better for my own life. I'm still nice to everyone but once someone brings up drama, gossip about others or complain about the SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN...Then BUH-BYYEEEEE!!!!! You better be nice or leave because I ain't got time. β
Mediocre
Don't settle for mediocre. If you don't like something, change it. We are ALL people with great ideas and dreams and passions. I've seen too many AMAZING people belittled or judged by others or themselves (for fear of what others think) because they weren't following the norm of society. π
...
Think of your role models or people of history that really changed the world. They lived to thier fuller potential because they believed in a better life. Do you think before the greats became great they were accepted by EVERYONE? No, because they failed over and over before they became strong enough and wise enough to become the people they needed to become in order to do those great things.
..
I say all this to encourage you to realize that YOU are incredible! And I encouage you to become who you were always meant to be. It just takes stepping out of your comfort zone, sacrifice of time (that you get back in years of happy) and patience.....plus a whole lotta belief in your purpose. Find something you love and do it with the END result in mind. OVER&OVER&OVER again. Life is too short friends stop caring about the naysayers. Rise up and above by finding people who rise up and above. They don't got time for judgment, and doubts and neither should you. πππ
The Way We Do Everything
"The way we do one thing is the way we do everything."
...
When I heard this quote it really stood out to me. I thought about it and if I only gave half my effort with half my passion and half of my determination would I get the results I wanted???? NOPE. So why NOT give my ALL with my health!?!? πππ
...
57 days ago I decided to take on a program that needed more determination, more effort and more focus. I NEEDED to do this program for me and my health and future. I also do this alongside my Virtual Fit Club participants to help show them this IS POSSIBLE & WE ARE WORTH IT. π€
...
There are no shortcuts when it comes to our health. You get out of it what you put in. Do you need some motivation? What about help with a meal plan that works for you and workouts that push past plateaus(you can do from anywhere on your own time)?
β My next Virtual Fit Club starts April 2nd.βComment below or private message me.πͺπ We can see if this can work for you like it did for me and my clients!
Ouch
Well that was rough. I'm not gonna lie, I seriously waited too long to workout and probably should have had half my chili from earlier today...but I didnt. π΄ I feel stuffed and tired and today I'm feeling it...πππ
I'm still checking in though, because NO it's not easy, but it IS worth it to me. πDETERMINATION means doing hard things even on the days I REALLY don't feel like it. #virtualfitclub#virtualbootcamp #onlinesweatsesh
Life is Cool
I Love this pic I found today in the Houston airport!!! To me it means keeping a chill but also driven attitude & making the BEST out of every situation I encounter.
β
Remember there will ALWAYS be rough times ahead but if we make a real effort to look for the good in every situation then it becomes more clear to us that happier times are ahead of us. That happiness comes quicker to those looking for it, not just waiting for a better path or door to open for them.
β
Is this happy-cool life EASY!? Heck no! I had to retrain my brain and clear the negativity OUT! I had to get really clear on what I wanted for my life & I showed up to a better life because I NEEDED & WANTED it enough. I had to LEARN from others I was inspired by and not be jealous of thier success. I had to ask questions (lots of them) and fail FORWARD learning from my mistakes. I had to look back on my past only to learn from it. Not to dwell on it and think of the IF ONLYS. I had to Repeat to myself "I CAN DO THIS!" & remember this is MY life. It's MY job to figure out why I am here and find MY purpose for ME. Nobody else can do that for me. But through the struggles I found my strength. I'm happy, I'm grateful and I am so fortunate to now be able to help others the same way I was helped. π€ππ€Find your passion and go after it WHOLEHEARTEDLY friends. Let your struggles become your strengths and continue to search out thay happy and cool Lifeβπ
66yo Boss
Ok, check this out. The lady behind us using the pull up bars(shes 66 btw) told us told us she had not worked out in a while but here she is cranking out knee lifts like a BOSS.π
.
Seriously though she probably DOES stay active. Later we talked with her and she told us we are an inspo to her but really SHE is the REAL GOALS here. πͺππͺππͺπ I mean COME ONNNNNNNN.....just check her out!!!! She doesn't use her age as an excuse for lack of motivation. She showed up to a gym, to workout alone, while on vacay. Seriously, she is my goals!!!!!!!
.
I work out and eat healthy so I CAN rock those knee lifts just like this lady! Btw, to all those mommy and grammys out there, keep rocking it. I'm SOOOO inspired by YOU!!!!!!!! βββ
Your Dreams
You either work for someone to help build THEIR DREAMS... or you work to BUILD YOUR OWN DREAMS. πΈπ΄πΈ
.
A few years ago I was headed down that first career path. But I finally decided to change my of thinking. But I ALMOST said NO to my dreams....Ya see, I used to think "online jobs" were nothing but pyramid schemes, sales and annoying people. π€ Hmmmm yea, I was 100% wrong. Almost 4 years later I'm hosting a retreat for some Coaches on our team and I could have never been able to do this is it wasn't for online Coaching. I've meet my closest friends through this business and I've helped hundreds of people reach goals with REAL NUTRITION and INCREDIBLE WORKOUTS. πͺπ I love my job and always will. I can't imagine my life any other way and I'm so grateful I stopped letting my doubts and misconceptions get in the way.
.
If you are ready to work towards YOUR DREAMS then you know I'm here. I'm already planning next year's retreat! You should totes be here. Just sayin'. ππ΄π
No One Is That Happy
Someone said to me recently they love following me because I always seem happy. And yes, I would say I'm a pretty happy person. Honestly though, when I think about how I appear to others I'm always afraid that they might think...."shes fake...no-ones THAT happy!" π
...
Seriously though, I do try to show my highs and lows as often as I can. Life is not perfect all the time (it's not meant to be) but I truly believe we ALL can become happier, more grateful people when we just remember to do the simple things. Like ...be nice. ππ...
....
If I could sum up HOW to become happier I would do it in my "oh snap, Sarah's got a mean- REAL TALK side"...kinda voice...
So ya'll ready for this?!?!!
I'm only sharing because I talk to A LOT of people and I see what they post on social media too. π¨π¨π¨ And if you are offended then yea.... This message is probably for you π So here we go...
...
#1 stop treating the people you "love" Like crap. What you say behind thier back defines who YOU ARE. Not them.
#2 If you play the blame or excuse game ALL your life you will always be a victim to your OWN negativity. So stahhhp. You ain't going anywhere until you own your own failure. Learn from it, get better and never stop.
#3 ALWAYS show respect for others. Do you take time to get to know everyones name or show courtesy and thankfulness to EVERYONE!?!?! - whether they are a CEO, janitor, teacher, police officer, chef, waitress....etc.!!?!?
#4 Stop WISHING. Start DOING. be true to your word if you say you are going to do something....then DO IT! You are grown. You don't need to be spoon fed anymore.
#5 Be thankful. There is someone less fortunate wishing they had your life. Do your part in this world and leave it better than when YOU entered it.
....
So there is it is... happy rant done πππHave a blessed and happy day friends. Life is too short to not live it happy. XOXO
Closest Five
You are the average of the 5 people you spend most of your time with. So is that a good thing!?!?! To some, yes π.....and for others ....it sucks!!!! So I encourage you - who are your closest 5!? π
And ask yourself....
...
π€Did I treat and Love this person right today and in the past?
π€In what ways today did I uplift or compliment them?
π€Did I show him or her support today?? HOW?
π€Does this person know I love them?
π€In what ways do I show them that I love them??
...
I answer yes to each one when it comes to Eddie and I. We help build each others dreams and support each others passions and goals. This relationship isn't 50-50...its 100-100. I'm not saying we are perfect or we never get upset with each other time to time but what I am saying is that it's SOOOOO important to ALWAYS communicate and ALWAYS take the time to be a true SUPPORTER and true FAN of your people. If they don't know you support them then you most likely feel unsupported as well. I recommend taking extra time to show that love to your peeps. Your life will be so much more fulfilled and you they will mirror how you want to be treated also. It's never too late to change our thinking and actions. πππ
