Week #2 Our 2 Responsibilities in life

Hey! So Resolutions and goals are made for 2020, right?! Awesome, Although I recently heard that ONLY 8% of people actually STICK to their goals throughout the year! WHAT?!?!!? Yea, I hate to admit I have been that 92% and it’s SOOOOO frustrating... I mean, heck I STILL don’t see certain goals met, but one thing I learn year after year, after year...…. I CANNOT GIVE UP. Seriously we just can’t guys. And here is WHY...We have 2 responsibilities in our ONE life. 

> Care & Love for ourselves. 

> Care & Love for others. 

When I make goals for the year- I have those 2 things in mind. If they DON’T align with that- then it’s outta the list. It makes me realize that certain goals are just SILLY & they shouldn’t even be on the list!!!  (((I mean yea, this girl REALLY wants a jeep- so Imma just throw that out there- buuuut there are more important things I need to spend $$ on- but you better believe I'm working towards it....year, after year ;) ))) Ok, I digress & honestly, at the end of our lives I think we will want to look back and be GRATEFUL that we didn’t waste time or energy on the drama & the negative & we weren’t too afraid to try new things. Instead we want to look back and see the POSITIVE impact that we had on our friends and family members. Ya feel me?!!?! With that said, I would love to hear YOUR goal or in other words, YOUR RESPONSIBILITY for 2020. Does it fit into your plan for your life? Is it something you are working towards daily? And HOW are you making time for it?

I am here to help you do that ya know. We are friends and I want you to know I CARE about you. Even if your goal is to drink more water- that is AMAZING!!!! I think ONE positive behavior makes a domino effect so embrace EVERY positive habit you create as a HUGE WIN!!!!! Brag about it and tag me on the socials ;)

One of my goals is to impact YOU to make that positive change. So that’s why I am committing to more weekly emails. Sorry if you will get sick of me, but hey- if it encourages you and reminds you that at least ONE person in your life cares about you then IMMA DO IT!!!!!!! <3

I Love you and I hope to hear from you soon. And if I don’t hear from ya- we still friends boo. Have an awesome rest of your week!! Talk soon!!!

Love,

Your friend and Coach

Regret. Anger. Heartache. Sadness. Thankfulness

Regret, anger, heartache and sadness and thankfulness. All emotions I'm going through right now. I always want to be honest with you guys and if Eddie can cry on his twitch stream today then heck I can share with you guys too. Eddies got a huge heart and I now know how sad he feels for me because of a recent loss.

My heart aches for my friend for the loss of her man whom she's loved THROUGH IT ALL over the last 12 years. My heart also aches for him and what could have been & I wish I would have shown him more love....

My last encounter with him was not something I'm proud of. Yes, we were friends and hung out but as of recently I had become angry with him & he knew it. Things happened that made me very upset with him. I am filled with sadness and guilt and anger and in my heart I want so bad to go back and make things right. I am a fixer and a problem solver and I want the best for others but I'm afraid he thought I gave up on him and in those moments I think I did.

And I know I can't say I'm sorry and know I can't hang onto this and I know I won't in time but if you can learn anything from me, please reach out to those who need help. I think we all have someone in our life struggling. Please don't give up on them. Always choose to be kind. Life is way too short & you never know when the last time is the last time. 💕

Btw, thank you so so much to the Married to the Games community. I had no idea Eddie shared what he did and your love and kindness is much appreciated. We both love ALL of you so much. Thanks for showing and sharing love. It will never be forgotten.

Raising the Barre

Tbh, from working with a trainer who taught NBA athletes to a trainer whose background is Ballet, Yoga, Barre and Pilates I was a little skeptical if I would feel challenged enough...um yea guys. I'm just gonna swallow that humble pride pill RIGHT NOW because I was SO wrong. The WHOLE 30 minute workout is freaking kicking my butt!!!!

And @elisejoanfitness thank you for such a positive uplifting & CHALLENGING program!!! I so look forward to sweating to a different barre workout everyday with you!!!I will probably stick with 2lbs though. Apparently I'm not ready for 3's 🤣😅

We are at the end of PREP week in my private Virtual Health Club & YOU have until SATURDAY to still join this first Test Group (next one begins Feb) You want in!?!?!?! Go here  for the Virtual Health Club Application & we can see if this program fits in your schedule too👌🏼😘😘😘

Fear of Failing

Fellow fitness instructors & trainers & healthy living enthusiasts....it's Day ✌🏼 and it's Not too late to join!!!! 😘.....

I hesitated for almost 2 years not because 44 cents a day was too much to invest in myself & start this online business but because I was afraid I would fail in front of people.😭

But ya know what!?!? Our mentors, people we look up to and the people living their best life have failed THOUSANDS of times MORE than any of us....and that's because they JUMP, they RUN and they LEARN and DO what it takes to get better!!!!!

When it comes to success you MUST get out of your own way!!! Stop talking yourself out of a better life. We either make excuses for staying STUCK or we have reasons to show up and FIGHT for what we want.

It ain't selfish people!!!! Because when you are happy, healthy and more financially stable then you can inspire and also help SO MANY PEOPLE AROUND YOU!!!! But it starts with the decision to TRY.

Enough jib jab...Here's where YOU come in👉🏽👉🏽👉🏽👉🏽....I need help running Virtual Health Clubs and if you want to be paid to inspire people to live healthier then let's have a convo. Fill out my Fit-Influencer/ Online Coach application and we can chat about YOUR goals for 2020!!!! I’m going to the top, wanna join!?!?! #letsdothis #bossbabes #virtualhealthclub #allin2020

Compassion

When we show ourselves compassion and love, then we accept nothing less from others. (Boundaries are a great thing) Be sure you put YOU and your needs at the top of YOUR list. When you DO take the time for yourself you are more loving and kind and compassionate to yourself and others. 💕💕💕
How are you showing yourself compassion today?

Commit to Change

Always looking for the easy way out. Slacker. Procrastinator. College drop out. Business failure. Anxious & Scared.....all words that I thought defined me until I did something about it. Wanna know WHY those words don't define me anymore? Because I decided that if I wanted to have a different life, I had to Think and Do differently. And the BEST way to do that!?! COMMIT TO CHANGE.

That's why I have been SUPER committed to these programs. I started to see change as soon as I stepped up and DECIDED I was going to be one of "those" people I so admire. (& kinda secretly hated🤣)....And Guys, YES....today was our LAST WORKOUT!!!!!! 🔥😭🔥

At rep #80 on the burpee slides, the trainer asked us WHY we weren't gonna quit. And my reason for starting & Finishing this program is.....
🔥It shows me I CAN stay true to my word.
🔥I prove it to myself to be one those committed people.
🔥 It shows I'm DONE breaking promises to myself.
🔥 It proves to me that I CAN accomplish not just bard workouts, but also hard times in life.
🔥When I show it works for me I hope others see that there's hope for them. I show up for them too.

Tomorrow starts a new Program & I'm beyond excited to be ALL-IN with this one too!!!!! & I’m SO FLIPPIN PROUD that we've completed the hardest program everrrrrrrrrrr🙌🙌🙌🙌😭😭😭😍😍😍😅😅😅
If you are looking for CHANGE & COMMITMENT then I'm here for ya babes. You ready?!?!

Your Reminder

If you don't REMIND yourself to love who you are NOW then you will FORGET to show yourself love, strength and compassion when the going gets tough.

So this is YOUR reminder you are and always HAVE BEEN worthy of a healthy & happy life. Set boundaries and remember if you want to ADD ON good behaviors then you can't do that to an ALREADY full schedule. Instead what can you sacrifice to make self care work for you?

🤔Earlier bed time?
🤔Less Netflix?
🤔Workout from home instead of driving to the gym?
🤔Meal prep on Sundays?
🤔Limit social media?

If ya need help prioritizing & creating time for this, then ya know where to find me. You got this boo😘

Best Year Yet

Happy January 1st everyone! Anyone else stay up until 4am making a vision board!?🤦🏽‍♀️🤣

If you would have told me 6 years ago this is what my life is, I would have said✋🏼 YEA RIGHT.

Ya see, my confidence was low and my doubts were high but I had a small glimmer of hope that my life COULD look completely different, but that meant I HAD to take chances.

2014 Sarah wouldn't think the goals on this board are doable, & had NO idea how to get there but 2020 Sarah CAN & Already has the mindset to achieve these goals....but I realize NOW that EVERY new challenge that arises means I have something to learn from it. And that's a GOOD thing.

We NEVER get to where we want to go with who we are NOW, it's who we BECOME along the way that matters most.

So going forward into this year I want you to dream but even more importantly I want you to GROW.
☆Become so obsessed with becoming nicer to yourself and others.
☆Ask for help.
☆Take a training.
☆Stop comparing yourself to someone's highlight reel. They working hard, ya just don't see it.
☆Step outside your comfort zone.☆ EVERYDAY.
☆Learn from others as often as you can and never NEVER give up on your dream. ☆

The future you is rooting for you. And so am I. 💟 Happy 2020 friends. Lets make it our best year yet

Be A Brave Horse

Welp 2019, you have shown me I CAN achieve dreams of posing like a horse🤦🏽‍♀️🤣🤦🏽‍♀️ I'm sorry but please don't take this the wrong way, but does anyone else feel like an idiot doing "sweaty selfies"!?!?.......I mean ya, I get it. I want to inspire people to get up and move but if ya think after 5 years of doing this ONLINE THANG you would assume I would be more comfortable....but I'm NOT. I take 50+ pics to get one "OH KAYYYY ONE".

And even then, I judge myself.....A LOT. But then I remember, everyone goes through this..there's something about being connected to those that know what it's like to put yourself out there on the interwebz. And dude, I commend you. I feel you. But we do this NOT for ourselves. We do it for the lives we will inspire. We do it to show that fear does not stop us. We do it even when we don't want to. We do it even if we feel judged because at the end of our lives I'd rather be a brave horse than thinking I shoulda gone for it. #keepgoingbabes #wegotthis #allin2020
