I spent 3 days at a fitness conference in Louisville, Kentucky last weekend. So awesome to be around people who are so passionate about what they do and want to share their knowledge.
One of the most impressive speakers was a sports psychologist named Dr. Haley Perlus. Part of her talk was showing us this game she uses with her athletes called The 60 Second Brain Game. It’s a really neat game and I encourage you to try it out today.
To be successful in the game you have to forget your mistakes and move on. When you are so busy worrying about messing up, you can not focus on the task of getting the next one right. Hint-if the game got really fast while you were playing that means you were doing great. If it slowed down, not so much.
Achieving your weight loss goals works the exact same way. You have to forget past failures and only focus on the here and now. So what if you have failed in the past? That has nothing to do with what is going to happen next.
Don’t let your past control your future. Don’t let it be the reason you are afraid to start an exercise program or try to eat healthy again. You might just need to try something different, rather than just not trying at all. You can do this, I got your back.
