One of the BIGGEST excuses I hear on a DAILY basis….
‘I haven’t got time’
Or
‘I’m too busy to exercise’
I’m not gonna lie here, I’ve used this excuse myself
Work, kids, shopping, cleaning, ironing…
The chores seem to be endless!
And the time just seems to disappear
That’s why, last week I tried a little test on myself…
The TIME WASTER Test
To see if i could free up some of my time and stop feeling so overwhelmed.
Everyone feels like this time to time, right?
Anyhoo, all you gotta do is get yourself a stopwatch or a smart phone
Then time how long you spend on unproductive stuff that wastes your valuable time.
For me, although i love it FACEBOOK is my achilles heal
I’m on there like an 1-2 hours some days!
10 min here, 30 min there, it soon adds up
For some, it’s the TV
Try adding up how many hours per week are spent in front of the box
You’ll be WELL surprised!
I’m not saying stop doing all the things that relax you
All I’m saying is
Could you actually be MORE productive to your cause?
If shedding FAT is your goal
Use some of that time to plan, prepare you next meals
Do an extra home workout (Like this one, click here)
At the end of the day, it all comes down to priorities
And it all comes down to HOW bad you actually want something?
Do you want it more than watching your favorite TV program? could you catch up with your program at a different time?
Do you want it more than an hour on Facebook? could you have a set time or reduce the amount of time you use Facebook?
You gotta weigh up the benefits!
Remember, the fitter you become and the more fat you lose, the healthier you are.
FACT!
The return of investing a little time to yourself?…..
Stronger Immune system so you are are likely to catch colds/flu
Increased confidence (Feel better about yourself, turn heads and get more sex)
Have a positive mental attitude (More productive, Improved work relations and fun to be around)
Fitter/stronger (more energy to play with the kids)
The benefits are ENDLESS!
So, can you see WHY spending a little more TIME looking after yourself is so important?
Do yourself a favor
Use your time to INVEST in yourself!
