I would like to thank a very close friend of mine for showing this video to me and I would like to share it with all of you with the hopes that it will inspire you to never give up on your hopes and dreams.

I think we’ve all been at a point in our life where we’ve felt like giving up or we stop believing in ourselves.  This can happen not only with our fitness goals but with any goal.  You might be at a point right now where you have a lot of weight to lose and/or you have injuries that prevent you from doing a lot of things.  Your goal might seem so far away and unattainable that you think you can’t possibly ever get there.

So what do you do?  Give up and let things get even worse or do you make a decision right now to do something about it?

The first step is making that decision with so much enthusiasm that you feel like you’re going to explode!  Many people never achieve their goal because they can’t make a definite decision about what they want or they don’t have a clear picture in their mind of their ultimate goal.  Sometimes people set themselves up to fail before they even start due to fear of having a different life.  It can be easy to get caught in your comfort zone and change can be very frightening to some.

Like the wonderful and inspiring man in the video above, you could have an injury that you think might stop you from reaching your goal or you might have a lot of weight to lose but don’t let this be the reason you give up.  There will be times and it could be many times that you fall down but please, always get back up and keep going.

Be consistent…be determined…be persistent…never ever give up!
