I\u2019m sitting in church Sunday morning and the priest begins to talk about people being equal. Which, in this world, could definitely be a lengthy discussion. He described working people doing different jobs but getting paid equally the same. How do you feel about this? Controversy at its best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDeveloping a good work ethic is key. Apply yourself at whatever you do, whether you\u2019re a janitor or taking your first job, because that work ethic will be reflected in everything you do in life.\u201d<\/em> Tyler Perry<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Couldn\u2019t we apply this to health in general?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just because 2 people work out the same length of time each day, do they get the same results?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If 2 people ate the same thing for 30 days, would they look the same?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If I go to the gym 6 consecutive days, but someone else goes 3 consecutive days 2 times a day, would their results be the same?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These questions have no right or wrong answer because we are all different people with different goals. The question you should be asking yourself is AM I DOING ENOUGH?<\/strong> Are you working and striving to meet your potential in the gym, at the dinner table, or at your job?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s not about being perfect. It\u2019s about your effort. When you bring your effort every single day, that is where transformation happens. That is how you change my friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Think of these 6 criteria for exceptional work ethic in the gym (or in life in general):<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Do you care?<\/strong><\/li>
- Are you doing what you said you would do?<\/strong><\/li>
- Are you focused?<\/strong><\/li>
- Have you taken the initiative?<\/strong><\/li>
- Are your goals attainable?<\/strong><\/li>
- Do you have a timeline?<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
People, stop wasting your time being \u201cthat\u201d person in the conversation that is saying, \u201cWell, if I\u2019d get back in the gym\u2026\u201d or \u201cI just gave up because I didn\u2019t see results (with a cookie in your hand).\u201d Or \u201care you a trainer? I need to call you.\u201d My phone works. If not me, then call someone else that can get your butt to the gym. I just want you all to find what moves you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Think of your job for a second, do you give that your all? Do you show up late? Is your lunch break longer than others? Did you speak to those around you? Are you cordial? Did you do something extra for someone else? Do you even care you have a job? The work ethic that you put forth towards your job flows right over to your health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Make a difference in your own life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBe humble. Be hungry. And always be the hardest worker in the room.\u201d<\/em> The Rock<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
