YOU ARE THE SUM OF YOUR DECISIONS
In the grand scheme of life, it’s the small, seemingly inconsequential decisions that often hold the greatest power. Every choice we make, from the mundane to the monumental, contributes to the way our life plays out. We are the sum of our decisions.
I think most of us realize the power of the big decisions we make - our jobs, where we live, who we attach ourselves to, etc. But what about the small ones? Every day we make hundreds of decisions that affect our trajectory.
Every day most of us have the choice to:
eat nutritious, nourishing foods or eat junk that makes us feel like crap
sit on our butts or move our bodies
order takeout or cook at home
scroll IG or get to the gym
. . . . . . these are just a few that are specific to fitness! There are so many more choices we’re faced with on a daily basis.
If you want to change anything about your life - how you feel, look, perform, etc. - you have to change your ways. You can’t expect to continue making the same decisions you always have and suddenly get different results.
Is it easy to make healthy choices all the time? Absolutely not. And am I saying you have to make the healthy choice 100% of the time? No! I don’t even think that’s possible. Just remember that you are a culmination of the choices you make. So if you’re ALWAYS letting yourself off the hook or making excuses for yourself, you’ll continue down the same path. And maybe you’re ok with that. . . but if not, start paying attention to the decisions you make every day.
It’s the little things that add up.
Small changes = big results!
