Day 28 Motivation Monday – Be Congruent, Be Happy!

WOOHOO!  It is MOTIVATION MONDAY!

It is the FIRST MONDAY OF JUNE so if you are just joining us – YOU ARE VERY WELCOME! Jump in and have some fun and let’s give June all we have got. x

I started the plan 2 weeks ago myself (if you are new to the blog, I have lost around 8 stone altogether and this is my final push to get to my ultimate target).  I wore this dress the night before I started the plan, and then when I tried it on again today, it was soooo much looser! I love seeing the changes and I am motivated to keep going and get to my ultimate goal!  My Ted Baker jeans are looking much better on me now, another week or so I am sure they will be fitting me better.  It is my wedding anniversary on 15th June so I definitely want to be wearing them on that day!

If you are HAPPY when you are dieting then everything just flows, it feels easy, you feel in THE ZONE, and life is good.  If you are not happy when you are dieting then it really can be a struggle, you are fighting yourself every step of the way, you feel frustrated, deprived, negative, and generally down in the dumps.  What way would you rather feel?

Today’s challenge topic and task is AWESOME!  I think this is a very important concept to grasp, so please do take the time to read it and do the action task today.

It is Day 28 Of our Challenge! It is an open challenge so you can join anytime, if you want to join today, CLICK HERE, and get started!  A warm welcome to everyone who has joined the challenge for the start of June!

[quote]Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in Harmony.[/quote]

So let’s think about YOUR DIET….

What are you thinking???

“I want to lose weight”

“I want to be slim”

“I wish I was size 10”

“I need to get healthy”

“I need to change my eating habits and lifestyle”

What are you you saying??

“This is too hard!” OR “I can do this!”

“I have too much to lose, it’s impossible!” OR “Day by day I can achieve ANYTHING!”

“A little won’t hurt….” OR “Nothing or noone will stop me!”

“I can start again tomorrow….” OR “I want to wake up in the morning feeling slimmer and proud!”

“Feck it!” OR “I am worth it!”

 What are you doing?

Are you being 100% OR blipping your way to kingdom come?

Are you lying around feeling lazy OR taking every opportunity to get some extra activity into your day?

Are you forming healthy habits to set up a foundation for a new you OR counting the days to get back to your old lifestyle?

Are you doing the daily tasks and challenges to help keep you focused OR are you opening the fridge door every 30mins?

Are you rewarding yourself with pamper treats OR rewarding yourself with food and drink?

If you want to be happy creating your New You and doing the diet, then you need to have all 3 in sync. What you say, think and do all need to be working in unison towards your goal.  This is when you feel unstoppable.

If what you say, think and do are all the same, this is called BEING CONGRUENT.  Being congruent means sticking to what you set out to do.  If you set out to lose 10 pounds this month, then NOTHING, will stop you from achieving that goal, especially not yourself.  Every part of you will focus on achieving that goal, your thoughts, words and actions will all be in harmony.

Think about it…

If you are thinking “I want to be slim”, then you say “It is too hard, I can’t do it!” and then you order a chinese takeway.  There is no harmony here.  If there is no harmony then there is unrest.  And this is why some people really struggle emotionally.  Noone likes conflict.  And if you are in conflict with yourself… it really is emotionally hard.

So many times I see people say – that’s it… I am giving up… this diet is not for me. They think that by not doing the diet they will be happy again.  But really want needs to change is they need to be in harmony with themselves.  Most people who say they do not want to do the diet anymore can enjoy a guilt time… but more often than not they will soon start wishing they were slim and healthy and able to change their habits, and they will feel unrest again.

When all 3 parts of us are in harmony, momentum builds, excitement builds and the feeling of being unstoppable builds too.

Like everything in life, it takes some commitment and perseverance to make this happen.

When you start to be aware of what you think, say and do, and be aware of BEING CONGRUENT & BEING IN HARMONY.  Then you can start to check yourself when you are going off course, and YOU WILL GO OFF COURSE…. A LOT!  The key is getting yourself back on track pronto.

You can only think one thing at a time.  So anytime a thought comes into your head that is not in harmony with where you want to go… you need to replace it with something that will take you to where you want to go.

The more you build self discipline into your life, the more self esteem you will have.  The easier it gets and the better it feels to be self disciplined.

When you know what you want, and every part of your being is working towards that goal.  Life just gets easier.  If you have the mindset that nothing or noone will stand in your way… you will soon find that nothing or noone is even in your way.  It’s the way the universe works… if you have a clear mission, and get out of your own way… exciting things can happen in your life.  The more you go after what you want, the more you get what you want.

If you are thinking one thing, doing another, and talking about another, then you are not on a mission.  You are confused.  You are stuck.  You do not know what you really want.  You are in conflict with yourself.  And if you do not know what you want…. then how can life give you want you want??

Get clear on what you REALLY want.  And make it your MISSION to get it.  

And understand that SELF DISCIPLINE is choosing about what you want NOW and what you want the MOST.  You are going to sometimes feel tempted by the NOW…. but you need to stay focused on what you want the MOST.

What is EASY now is HARD later.

What is HARD now is EASY later.

Invest the work, effort and determination NOW.  Be Congruent.  Be in Harmony.  Be Happy.

What do you want your life to be like when you are slim, healthy and wearing all your fashionable summer clothes?? Imagine it, feel it, see it… it is a very short time away really.  If you can BE CONGRUENT this month you will achieve it.

So today our task is…
