Goal!!!!!!

One trait that all successful seem to have, persistence. A quality that I try to implement in my daily life and training routine. In my opinion persistence is the most important factor in reaching your goals.

The first step is clearly identifying what you want 

examples 

1) lose 15 pounds by june

2) Gain 6 pounds of muscle in the next year 

3) Do 10 pull-ups by April 

Once you have a specific goal tailor your nutrition and workouts to reaching it. Many people start working towards a goal but go about getting there the wrong way or don't have the persistence to stick with a program. Instead of going to the gym and "going through the motions", work for a purpose and constantly test yourself to ensure your moving in the right direction. 

My advice, find someone that has accomplished your goal, and figure out how they achieved it. In other words if you want to be stronger, hang out with stronger people, if you want more money hang out with richer people. I promise with a solid plan and consistency all your training goals can be reached. 

Change your mentality to instead of "can i do this", to  "am i willing to put in the effort to do this". 

A winning mentality is the crucial in determining the success of your health and fitness endeavors. 

Remember the word of the day is persistence, the key that will unlock any obstacle in your way. 

Step 1- Set a goal

Step 2- Work your ass off to get it

Step 3- Don't stop till you get it

As Charley sheen would day "Uh winning".... 

Now the only question is, what are your goals?
