How to Get Your Goals Even If You Hate the Gym

Accountability is the Key to Success

LOL! So, on Tuesday, I sent out my regular weekly love note and talked all about how The Seasons of Success are like taking your manifestation muscles to the GYM.

And how that’s really important.

Well! I heard from you!!

You don’t like the gym! You don’t like working out! And why the hell would you ever CHOOSE to do courses voluntarily that are like going to the gym!!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Oh! Goodness gracious!! It’s so true!! You ARE my people.

How do I know?

Because, before I went full-time into Coaching, I was a Personal Trainer for over a decade.

It was my JOB to get people into the gym and working out – or I would go to their homes and we’d work out there.

And while there were a few exceptions, the vast majority of them told me that they hired me because:

I knew if I didn’t have you showing up to kick my ass I’d NEVER work out.

Sound familiar? 😉

Y’see, the truth is that most of us do not have the natural discipline to do what we need to do to reach our long-term goals. And we’re ashamed of that. So we hide from it.

And that’s why we don’t have our goals… because we turn away from the shame.

My personal training clients were smart: they knew they didn’t have the oomph to get to the gym by themselves EVEN THOUGH they also knew that if they didn’t work out regularly they would EVENTUALLY suffer terrible consequences with their health and bodies.

That’s the problem.

It’s EVENTUAL consequences. They’re not short-term. They’re long-term.

If you don’t get to the gym TODAY, you’re not going to die TOMORROW.

But, we all know that we’ll be healthier and better able to LIVE our lives if we’re strong and fit as we age.

We know that there are consequences in the LONG-TERM if we neglect the SHORT-TERM.

But, because they’re long-term, we can ignore them now.

And since most of us are crazy-busy and overwhelmed and stressed out, we sacrifice our long-term goals and health for our short-term busy-ness.

We do it with the gym and we do it with our goals.

We choose FATE over DESTINY because we’re not willing to get uncomfortable and put in the effort required to make something differenthappen.

My PT clients hired me for 5 main reasons. I made sure their workouts were:

1. Safe

2. Fun

3. Effective

4. Building momentum toward their goals, and 

5. Consistent

And that’s exactly what I’ve built into The Seasons of Success. I’ve turned the sometimes overwhelming and usually neglect-able process of setting and getting goals into a SYSTEM that you can follow and WIN.

More than anything, I’ve also built in Accountability – the biggest reason my clients hire me.

I’m right there with you, think of me as the Personal Trainer for your Dreams.

I will see through your bullsh*t. I will kick your ass – with love, of course. 😉

And I will show up and walk with you every single frickin’ step of the way.

Why do you think my clients work with me for YEARS?

Is it because they’re not making progress? Um, no. It’s because they ARE making progress and they don’t want to lose momentum. They’ve realized that they CAN win and they want to KEEP winning.

That’s what I’ve baked into the Seasons of Success.

So, are you ready to get your very own Personal Trainer for Your Dreams?

Are you ready to get to the gym? Even if, after you drill down past all the excuses, the truth is that you’re terrified to be seen not being perfect?

I promise I’ll meet you at the door and welcome you in. 

You don’t have to do it alone anymore.

I hope you’ll join us at this Introductory Special Rate – you can get it here until Saturday.

Remember: You’re here to build a new world.

It makes life so much easier. 😍
