The Secrets of Transformation

Hey there!
I've been sharing some of my new challenge group posts I've saved with a challenge group I'm in with my fellow coaches. Yes, we totally need each other in our own journeys to our best selves! (If you're thinking: cool, but uh what is a challenge group?? click here)
Today I'm sharing something from Chris Powell's book "Choose More, Lose More For Life". Anyone else love watching Extreme Weight Loss? Anyone else cry every single episode? Anyway, these are his secrets to transformation. Of course, in the book there is way more information on each step, which I'll elaborate on in my challenge groups... but I did a pretty good job at outlining a good message you!

 1. вєℓιєνє:
"Believe you can and you're half way there." Believe in yourself. Believe in the process, and believe that your transformation is possible. Not just transformation of your body, but lifelong transformation of yourself. If you don't at least believe "maybe I can" then transformation isn't going to happen for you. But when you believe transformation is possible, it is.

...to yourself. The more you honor your integrity, the more dignity you have. Your promises to yourself must be so important and so easily kept that you reach out and grab them every single day because you want what you promised yourself. Keeping each promise to yourself has to be your focus, because it shows you that you are your own top priority. Each promise made is another step toward valuing and loving yourself, and a brick in the foundation of your transformation. Each promise kept —your integrity —is the mortar that holds the bricks together, and the more promises you honor, the stronger the foundation gets.

Look, nobody's perfect. We're all human, and life happens. We're all going to fall sometimes. In fact, we're going to fail many, many times in our lives! If you remember this -if you expect to fall once in a while - you wont be surprise when you do you'll be prepared. Once you own up to your mistakes, reassess the promises you made to yourself. To keep falling from turning into failing, ask yourself if your vision is realistic and attainable. Refer to S M A R T goals!

My fellow coaches and I believe I this so much. Humans need one another. We find strength in numbers so we do everything together, as a group. The support and encouragement of others helps you believe in yourself and keep your promises to yourself. The connections with other people create a safety net that lets you fall without failing.
THE POWER OF YOUR TRIBE EMPOWERS YOU!
It keeps us accountable, helps keep us motivated and there's a healing element too: when you reach out to your crew in tough times, they'll be there for you. Their support makes it much, much easier to get back up and go forward.
 
Happy Hump Day! Hope this little post gave you a push to finish out the week strong!
