Excuses? Look for Opportunities Instead

SolCore Therapy and Fitness

I hear people tell me that they really want to get on a program to correct their issues because they want to stay active, but then right after they start, they decide that “their body is different,” and they can’t do it.

Or people who are“so, so busy” at work.

Or others who are “just too tired all the time.”

🧐

These excuses are common – and frustrating to hear. I’ve had to accept the fact that there’s only so much I can do to encourage someone to stop using them. But, when they’re ready to make a change, here’s a tactic that works well.

I encourage them to think of these excuses as opportunities for improvement in their lives rather than as insurmountable obstacles.

For example:

👉🏽 Instead of having the uninformed reaction that they somehow are incapable, try and accept that this is just where you are now and that this is a change they need to make and new skills they need to learn.

👉🏽 Instead of feeling overwhelmed by your professional obligations, learn better time management techniques.

👉🏽 And if you lack energy, then you need to experience the energy boost you’ll gain from exercise and proper eating.

If you take advantage of these “opportunities,” then you’ll gain health, time, vigor – and skills you can apply in other parts of your life, too.

If you really want to do something, you’ll do what’s necessary to get there.

If you don’t, you’ll keep making excuses.

The choice is yours.
