WORST WORD EVER...

I can’t do this…

I can’t do that…

I can’t afford this…

I can’t make time for this…

How about stop making those excuses and focusing on what you CAN do??!!

Using this word CAN’T in your everyday vocabulary engrains negativity into your subconsciousness. It becomes a part of you; your go-to answer. It literally stops you from being the best version of yourself.

“Can’t afford a gym membership…” -what of the thousands of free exercises on you-tube and the internet?

Example:

10 squats

10 push ups

20 sit-ups

20 skips

Repeat as many times as possible within 15 minutes and you are done.

“Can’t make time…” –you have the same 24 hours like everyone else (who is making time for it), it is your priorities that are misplaced and you CAN choose to make better use of your time e.g watching less T.V, waking 20 minutes earlier, spending less time on Instagram and Facebook etc. like I always say, you make time for what is important to you. A man, no matter how busy will make time to chase a girl around and woo her when she is still doing her “shakara” (of course we all know what happens later when she finally says yes. Lol) My point is, if you want it bad, you will make time for it.

“Can’t cook…”- oh comm’on! You are not a child anymore. It irks me when I hear ladies say that. Some even think it’s a thing of pride. SMH. My dear, get some basic skills, brush it up with the countless cooking guides anyone can find online. Recipes, how to make simple and complex dishes, where to even shop for them. Everything is on the internet now. You can’t claim to be that ignorant!

The instructions you need to achieve ANYTHING you want to achieve is out there. You just ain’t looking yet.

You CAN achieve your goals, you just need to ditch the negative mindset and do ONE thing today that can help you move towards a better position for yourself.

 Believe in yourself, and surround yourself with others who believe in you also.

 If you want to make a change you might need to drop a few people along the way, you know, the negative naysayers who aren't achieving anything and want to drag you down with them.

 It's not easy, but sometimes people just have to go. Yes.

 After all, it is said (and has been proven) that you are the average of the people you surround yourself with.

 If you surround yourself with negativity, bitterness and stress, how do you expect to break free and achieve YOUR dreams?

 So this is your call to action. A wake up call.

Do you want a leaner, healthier body and mind set?

Are you frustrated with where you are right now?

Have you been contemplating whether or not to start that business idea? 

stop waiting.

July is already over. Just 155 days to the end of 2014. More than enough time to start doing something. Stop sitting on the couch and giving excuses while waiting for a miracle to happen. That miracle you want will be done through you.

THERE IS NO BETTER TIME TO START THAN NOW!

Love, always,

ELLA…xxx
