IF BEING FAT WAS SO GREAT, WHY GO TO THE GYM IN THE FIRST PLACE?

After a busy couple of weeks, I've finally managed to find the time to get to the Gym for a session with my personal trainer www.evolvetraininguk.co.uk  

Absolutely killed me, seriously it just sucks, I have 2 options, don't bother going because it's too hard and get fatter.

Go and persevere through difficult and unpleasantness in order to get fitter and thinner, and achieve goals I want.

Funnily enough this is exactly how it is when you first start a business..  it's actually really hard, uncomfortable, deeply unpleasant, with little gains for all the hardwork and effort you put in, you want to give up.

I know I've been there.  

In fact I'm there today.. in terms of the gym. However there does come a point when after pushing through you have a breakthrough moment, when things aren't as bad and you "just get it".

I'm hoping my fitness breakthrough comes soon enough, but if it doesn't I'm going to continue and continue through the pain till it does.

In your life, in your business are you going to bail out at the first sign of pain or keep with it through the hurt till you do.

See if being employed/fat was so great, why did I start my own business/go to the gym in the first place?

Stick with it… you can do it!

It is an exact picture of starting a business. You go through all the stages - hope, excitement, anticipation, getting stuck in, reality, despair.

Its the next word you choose to write in that list that counts, folks. And you get to choose it.
