THE POWER OF CHOICE  

very minute of every day you are faced with thousands of choices. What to eat, what to do, what to think and the decisions you make are what produces your future experience.

Even when you choose not to make a choice, you are actually choosing to recreate the same life circumstances. I hope your reaction to this is OMG and a massive alarm bell but don’t stress…think about it for a second. If you created your current state, that means you are equally capable of making choices and decisions that will shed those unwanted kilos. This is step two. Becoming aware that you are making those choices and learning simple tools to improve your decision making skills will massively change the way you do things.

When I was first presented with this concept I completely freaked out and totally denied I could possibly be responsible for all the things I didn’t like about my life, BTW don’t worry, this is a completely normal human reaction!  

Then I started to think about what this information really meant. Once I realized I actually had a choice over my life circumstances and could choose a different future I knew I had just been given the key to personal freedom.

I was raised in a very strict home where I lived by rules like children should be seen and not heard, respect your elders, do as you are told blah, blah ,blah. I love my Dad and understand he had my best interest at heart but as a result I had absolutely no sense of personal power. I obediently did whatever anyone with an opinion told me to do.

In my early twenties I moved to Los Angeles and despite the fact I was living in Hollyood I suddenly found myself with no one to direct me. Needless to say without this very basic life skill I was completely lost, depressed and afraid. I will never forget the day that my best friend and neighbour Darrin, after listening to me cry about all my problems for the hundreth time, patiently looked at me and said, “This is your life girlfriend, if you don’t like it just do something to change it!”

Those simple words of advice changed my life forever and I have spent my life sharing them with everyone I can. Now I am sharing them with you and even though I don’t know you I hope they will help you as much as they helped me. You already have lots of knowledge about how to lose weight so by being aware of your choices and deciding to make the choices that will help you lose weight you will start to develop new habits.

If you only picked two small things that you already know about losing weight and committed right now to doing just those two, no matter what, you would immediately start to lose weight.

These small steps are the building blocks of self belief and ultimate success. The only thing stopping you from losing weight.

If you do nothing you will just keep gaining weight and losing health but if you commit to taking even a few small actions you will lose weight and improve the quality of your life forever right now is not having the tools to help you take action and make the shift  from what you know you can do to what you know you must do.

The only way to fail at anything is to not take any action. You are at a crossroad right now what will you do?
