Tip #17 The Power of Positive

Have you ever uttered the words, "I'm too fat," "I'm too out of shape," "I'm too flabby," or other negative, nonproductive thoughts? If you're human, the answer is probably a resounding "yes!" Most of us are pretty harsh when it comes to our physical attributes. We forget about all the good things we do and pick at ourselves by saying things to ourselves we would never say to someone else. And what good does it do? Does it motivate you to go do something positive? Not likely. Picking on yourself gets you down making you think and do negative things like "Oh, forget about it. I'm a fat slob and there's no hope, so I'll just eat this whole pint of ice cream."
So today your job is to be positive about yourself. Don't say anything negative about your physical shape or size. Think about your positive attributes today. Those good attributes deserve to be taken care of. That's the motivation to make the healthier choices.
