Becoming healthy can be a struggle. Have you been trying diet after diet and don’t seem to arrive where you want to be? Or have you achieved what you wanted and return back to your earlier life?
A healthy lifestyle is not being build with an extremely strict and a tight workout schedule that you can never step away from. This is not a healthy lifestyle but rather a prison sentence. No wonder that you are only able to maintain this for maximum 4 months to a year. How about building a lifestyle that you are able to maintain for the rest of your life and that allows you to stay healthy and living longer so you can see you grandchildren grow up? As you see on the picture above living healthy doesn’t have to be a punishment. Rather it can be an enjoyable switch in your life that helps you to be healthy and happy at the same time.
Looking good and feeling good go hand in hand. If you have a healthy lifestyle, your diet and nutrition are set, and you’re working out, you’re going to feel good. – Jason Statham
Being healthy and being happy are a great combination. If you are healthy it’s easier to become happy and if you are happy you are more inclined to become healthy. Lots of people attempt to follow a strict diet to become healthy. Unfortunately what the strict diet lacks is the level of happiness that it will get you. Why do you think people call it a diet and they explain that they are “on” a diet. When you are “on” the diet you’ll probably end getting “off” the diet as well. Instead of doing it this way, add some healthy options in your current life. The less of a burden it seems the easier maintainable it is.
Everyone knows that family member, colleague or friend that looks and has been healthy for many many years. Ask them why they are so healthy and if they have some tips. Pay close attention to what the tips are that they give. Once you received them ask whether or not they find it difficult to stay healthy. If they have been doing it for somewhere between 5 and 10 years you can be sure that the asnwer will be “it’s not so hard (anymore)”. Everyone has difficulties when they first start out, if they don’t say they have they might have forgotten the start or they want to motivate you by pretending it was easy. It’s commendable that they want to motivate you. However you have to know that everyone has some moments of struggle or doubt. But that doesn’t have to stop your journey to a healthy lifestyle.
