Don't Come to Me for Results

PREFACE: In order to see results in aesthetic form, you must spend time developing a foundation of certain habits based around performance, lifestyle, and mentality. Anything less is a use of the band-aid approach - mindlessly treading toward results and forgetting about them once they are reached; not considering how you achieved the results, or strategizing a way to retain them. Results come in many forms. The most powerful results you can get are the ones that don't even show. Pay attention to what you're actually doing. Don't get Band-Aid results.






I hate the term "results". 

It is an overly used fitness-related buzz word. 

"The results speak for themselves."

"I get my clients results".

"Look at those results!".

If you come to me on day one and you are only interested in how I can get you an end result, I'm not going to be much help to you.

I'm not interested in getting you results. 

I'm interested in teaching you how to get better at things. Things that will allow you to get your own results. 

Lots of things happen between "day one" and the day you "see results". 

Some days you get better. Some days you don't get better. But you can learn lessons on both of these days.

If you fail to recognize the small victories and losses, you're doing it for the wrong reasons.

Don't go about the process unconsciously. 

Trust the process (the ups and downs) of working toward your goal. 

Acknowledge the challenges along the way. Take note of how you overcome them.

Do better than you did yesterday. Some days you won't manage to do better than yesterday. So make sure to do better the next day. 

If you do this you will be in a great position to reach your goal. 

Once you reach it, you will have an understanding of what it actually takes.

You will be better. 

You will have results.
