What’s on your mind?

Research shows a person can have as many as 60,000 thoughts in one day. From the time we wake up, to the time we sleep, we are constantly thinking. We reflect on our past and envision our future. We react to situation and carry conversations. We read and we talk. We multi task. Every action requires some kind of thought.

Have you ever noticed what you are thinking? Are your thoughts positive or negative? The thoughts we think can have an impact on our end result. Our thoughts create emotions that ultimately drive our behavior.

The good news is we have control over our mind. We can control the thoughts we think and the information we put into our mind. In order to reach our fullest potential we must be disciplined and keep our thoughts under control. Take some time to evaluate what we allow into our minds and the environment we are surrounded in.

This is applies to our fitness and weight training program. How you percieve yourself has an impact on the way you perform. Next you are about to start a workout, take a quick note of the thoughts in your mind. Create a positive mental picture of the outcome you would like to receive. Hold that positive thought in your mind and begin your workout on a positive note.
