Hard Work
Want to know the secret to getting results? There is no secret. There isn’t a magic pill you can take where you snap your fingers and suddenly you’re where you want to be. It takes work. Hard work. Consistent work.
It means you show up even when you don’t want to. It means you make right choices and decisions that lead you to your goals. It means that you put in the work every day whether you see the results or not.
There is no shortcut to lasting results. A quick fix is only temporary, it isn’t maintainable and it doesn’t last. In order to be where you want to be you have to put in the work.
In July it will be 2 years since I started this fitness journey. I wanted to be the best version of myself by my 50th birthday. (which is less than a month away now)
I have had to work hard with my workouts, with my diet, with everything. When I work hard I see results. When I start slacking, that shows too. Nothing has happened instantly. It’s taken a lot of hard work.
Right now I am the healthiest, strongest version of myself that I have ever been. When I wake up on my 50th birthday next month I’m going to be proud. Because I’ll know I met my goal.
So what’s the secret to seeing the results you want to see? Hard work. That’s the secret. That’s the trick. Nothing else.
