@mattwalterfit: The HARD truth about getting IN SHAPE… I read this quote by Author Shane Parrish the other day and it couldn’t explain the process of getting in shape and the pursuit of becoming healthier any better. He said: “Success comes down to doing the obvious thing for an extraordinary period of time, without convincing yourself that you’re smarter than you think you are” Whether you’re trying to lose body fat, build muscle, make better food choices, or even training for a marathon or any competition they all require the same basic principal Consistency. Doing the same “obvious” thing every single day for a long time. Staying consistent and showing up on the days where you don’t want to eat the same meal, showing up to the gym even though you’re tired, going for that run, or putting the work in towards whatever goal you may have. Along the way, you are going to try to outsmart yourself or try to reinvent the wheel because you might think there is a better/faster way to do it. Majority of the time, the things that worked in the past still hold true today and trying to find a better way will lead to inaction, procrastination, and ultimately failure. Obviously, trying to find more efficient ways to do workouts or when it comes to dieting are great but most of the time you end up running in circles. The most basic and fundamental thing that you know to be true is what you should focus on and get CONSISTENT with. Embrace simplicity and humility. In a world where we want everything right now, having a little bit of patience will put you ahead of most.
