Accept Change as a Positive Force in Your Life
By Chad Tackett, president of GHF
In order to be successful at leading a healthier lifestyle,
you need to have knowledge and a good understanding of the best, most
effective ways to do that. Global Health and Fitness (GHF) will give
you that. But we also want you to know that it's okay to be afraid and
uncomfortable with this lifestyle change; that's natural. Changing old
habits isn't easy. In general, people have a hard time adjusting to
change. Change is made even more difficult when we're not certain we
want the goals we have set out to achieve. Change is impossible when
we set ourselves unrealistic goals.
But it truly is possible when we set realistic goals and
when we make those changes gradually. If you have a willingness to work
through the initial emotional discomfort as you move step-by-step into
this new lifestyle, you'll find the confidence, commitment, determination,
and belief in your own self-worth that will ease the way.
Healthy living means making important lifestyle changes,
changes in the way you eat and exercise and, we hope you're coming to
see, in the way you think. It may sound overwhelming at first, but it's
really quite simple. Remember, these changes will be gradual. They'll
also never be painful or hard to stick with. Many Americans have already
successfully made the change to a healthy lifestyle. You can too, once
you understand how easy it is.
Making the change to a healthier lifestyle is a process
you will enjoy and can be proud of. The easiest way to go about it is
to take it one step at a time. If you try to hurry change, chances are
that it won't be permanent. It's important to understand that once you
put into effect the lifestyle habits GHF is going to teach you, they
are yours forever and will make a substantial impact on your life.
Once you truly believe that you have the ability to find
a comfortable balance of food, activity and life attitudes, you can
break free from fad diets forever. Action creates motivation. Once you
understand and implement safe and effective exercise and eating habits,
you will become successful. Once you start achieving great results,
the excitement and fun you experience will make the change well worth
the effort. Enjoying the many great benefits of a healthy lifestyle
will help provide the impetus to stay on the healthy road you've taken.
