One big block to exercise motivation is about how you see your role in this world.
If fitness and exercise do not fit into what you see as your role, then exercise will not be an activity that you can say is part of what you do.
If it is not part of what you do, then you will find it difficult to carry out.
For example, a man who sees his role as always having to work to support his family and please his boss will find himself working all hours in the office or taking clients to dinner and almost never exercising.
A woman who sees her role as staying at home looking after elderly parents will not exercise unless exercise can fit into that role definition for her.
In other words, your role in life is like a job definition.
Few of us would be prepared to do tasks that are way outside our job definition, say if working in an office.
So it makes sense that we do the same in our personal lives too.
On the other hand, a fitness or glamour model may well see part of her job is to keep fit.
A father may consider part of his role to go to Karate lessons or play football every Sunday with his son.
A weight-loss practitioner may see it as part of their role to be fit and healthy.
So, what is your role in life? Write down the first thing that comes to you.
Then write down a list of 10 activities that your role entails.
Is fitness or exercise one of them? If not, then this is easy to remedy with EFT.
Just tap the following statements a few times, then re-write the list.
Keep tapping and re-writing until exercise becomes a firm part of your role in life.
Setup Even though exercise is not part of my role in life, I accept myself anyway.
Reminder Exercise is not part of my role in life.
When exercise becomes mentally part of what your role in life is for you, you can take this tapping further.
Cement the new role in your energy by tapping daily for 3-6 weeks as follows.
Setup Exercise is part of my role in life, I accept myself and choose to enjoy my regular exercise.
Reminder Exercise is part of my role in life, I accept myself and choose to enjoy my regular exercise.
Enjoy the tapping, the healing journey, and the results! EFT, short for Emotional Freedom Techniques, is a great way to motivate yourself gently and effectively.
It worked for me and many clients.
If you don as yet EFT, you can download a free guide from many online resources and find out more for yourself.
Or you can dive right in and work with an experienced practitioner.
And you can soon be fit, motivated, and strong; as well as a calmer, more centred person.
