Hello and welcome to this episode of the ESG Fitness Podcast.

This is a bit of a pep talk episode about getting started, kind of off the back of getting everybody started on this intake of commit sticks.

And if you are listening to this and you still want to join, and this is the day of the release. I might let you in. Anyway, this applies to

any area of your life, like getting started with anything. It's not just health and fitness.

So there are two reasons that you don't achieve your goals. One, you don't even start. Two,

you give up. And both of these are quite simply solved and many people

never even start. So something I was thinking about as I was reading through all of the commit to six

questionnaires that we get people to fill out before they start so that I can

set their targets was that all of these goals are 100% achievable. So when people are writing

down, this is what I want to do, this is what I want to achieve, these are my goals, all of them

are achievable. It is not an ability problem. It is completely within your capabilities.

The likelihood is you just haven't had the right support or accountability.

So you either didn't start at all or you gave up.

And we can definitely help you with not giving up,

but the starting part has to come with an

initial commitment from you. You only get cheese-eat-ready-for-the-chease, you only get one life.

And I can guarantee that the pain of regret from not trying is far greater than the pain of trying and failing or as I like to see it

learning. I've I've had many a learning curve in my life but each time you try again you're

you're starting with more experience now so So you're never really starting from scratch.

If you've been yo-yo dieting your whole life,

then you're actually a pretty experienced dieter.

You probably already know what doesn't work.
