The 4 Laws of Success, aka The Keys to Achieving Your Fitness Goals

Here at Inspire Personal Fitness, we encourage both new and long-time members of our “fitness family” to wholeheartedly embrace the 4 Laws of Success.

I’ve been in this business for 16 years, and have worked with hundreds of clients. And honestly, what sets clients who succeed from those who fall short, is the willingness to adopt these laws as, well, LAWS. Meaning, if you stick to ‘em (LIVE by ‘em, and do not break ‘em!), you WILL achieve your fitness goals.

What are the Four Laws of Success? Glad you asked:

The 1st Law: The Law of Possession

The 2nd Law: The Law of Effort

The 3rd Law: The Law of Consistency

The 4th Law: The Law of Self-Efficacy

So strong is my belief in these laws, I tuck a print-out copy into each Inspire Personal Fitness New Client Pack. I then evangelize the heck out of ‘em, knowing how crucial they are to my clients’ optimal fitness and wellbeing.

I’m going to break these down one by one over the next four weeks. Let’s start with…

The 1st Law: The Law of Possession

This one is about the fact that your fitness journey, and where you take it, is 100% up to… YOU.

It’s not up to your trainer or coach (we’re your guides, your educated experts, your cheerleaders, but we can’t do your work – YOU do), it’s not up to your workout buddies (they’re fun, they’re rooting for you, they’ll challenge and support you – but they can’t do your work – YOU do)… it’s up to YOU.

So, ask yourself: Am I ready to take responsibility, FULL responsibility, for my own wellbeing?

If yes, know that this means there are NO excuses – zip, zero, nada. You must stick to the changes adopting regular exercise means to your work / family schedule, your physical fitness routine, your life as you know it right now. I promise you, if you do, your life’s about to get a WHOLE lot better.

I’m sure you’ve heard the following phrases:

“If it’s going to be, it’s up to me.”

“If I think I can (or if I think I can’t), I’m probably right.”

Could be you’ve tried taking on a fitness challenge before, and failed. Bummer. But that’s on YOU. The good news? When you SUCCEED, that’s also on YOU.

Own this challenge to get into the best shape of your life. We’ll make sure you have all the information, equipment and moral support you need. Bring an “I OWN this” attitude, and it will happen for you.

Make sense? Next week, I’ll share more with you about The 2nd Law: The Law of Effort… um, sounds like a no-brainer, but trust me, it’s worth exploring.

Until then, take charge, work out and know that you’ve GOT this.
