OK...
I normally don't like to do this, but I've received so many requests to tell you more about how to use your mind to control your weight that I'm going to devote this article to giving it all to you...
Self sabotaging behaviors cause most people to fail when they try to lose weight or get healthy.
I mean, think about it for a moment...
- What causes you to crave sweets during the day, or crunchy, salty snacks at night?
- What causes you to "reward" yourself by taking a day off from your diet after finding out that you lost weight?
- What causes you to lose motivation or to lose will power after just a few weeks of following a diet?
- And what causes you to jump from diet to diet, rather than sticking to one diet long enough to reach your goals?
The cause of all the above scenario's and almost every other weight loss failure is our own Self-Sabotaging thoughts ...
... But you can put an end to all that and take control of your destiny and the shape and healthy of your body once and for all!
And it's not going to take a lot of effort on your part, or a new diet, or a better exercise video. All you need to do is stop doing the few things that are killing your results, and start doing a few things that will help you develop a tight, lean, sexy body.
There's a technique called D.E.E.P. that we use to help people from all walks of life to reach goals they previously thought were impossible, and I'd like to share it with you in the hopes that you'll use it to reach your goals, and to help others reach their goals.
D.E.E.P. is an acronym that stands for Desire, Expectation, Emotion, and Persistence.
Whenever we come across an individual who's having troubles sticking to a program, or keeping their weight off - we always find that one of those 4 (Desire, Expectation, Emotion, or Persistence) are either missing from their daily lifestyle, or very week.
To start with, anyone who has EVER reached a worthy goal in the past has FIRST developed a burning Desire to reach that goal. Said another way, without a burning desire you cannot reach a goal. And here's the good news, anything that your mind desires, you already have the ability to achieve!
It's impossible for you to desire a better body without having the substance within you to do whatever it takes to reach that goal. If you've failed in the past, it's not because you didn't have the ability to reach your goal, it simply because you didn't understand the D.E.E.P. technique.
But ... you might say that everyone who wants to lose weight or get healthy has a strong desire - so why haven't they all reached their goal?
We'll let's get into the second part of this body-transformation equation:
After you decide that you have a strong enough desire to reach your goal, you need to Expect that you can achieve it. This is where most people fail. Most people want to look great, but they never really believe that they can look like all those other people. You must expect success in order to achieve it.
Your expectations cause you to take specific actions, and those actions determine what your body will look like and feel like.
The second "E" in the equation stands for Emotion. Your emotions play a far larger part in your success than you might think. On a physiological level, every emotion causes your body to release specific chemicals - the chemicals that your body release when you experience positive emotions usually boost your metabolism and help you burn fat. On the other hand, when you're depressed or in a negative state of mind, your body releases chemicals which depress or slow down your metabolism and cause you to store fat.
Mastering your emotions is an easy way to instantly boost your metabolism and your health.
The final letter in our body-transformation equation is "P" which stands for Persistence.
Persistently taking appropriate actions will always cause you to become better and better each and every day. The first 3 letters in this acronym will give you the motivation and will power necessary to persist in the right direction.
The thoughts and actions you take on a daily basis are what determines what your body will look like and feel like. For example - if you persistently skip your workouts, you'll always have a soft body, if you persistently cheat on your diet (a little wine with dinner, or a piece of chocolate every night) then you'll constantly struggle with fat loss. However, if you persistently eat well and live an active lifestyle, your body will have no choice but to get strong, lean, and sexy. And after you reach your goal body the right way, keeping the weight off becomes simple.
