What if I told you there was a tool so powerful and so helpful that it can almost put your quest for fitness here in Spokane on auto-pilot,The Most Powerful Tool In Your Weight Loss Arsenal Articles well, I would be telling you the truth.

Without sounding like an infomercial for some miracle pill or magic juice, what is this mystery force. Simply put, it is your mind!

Like Albert Gyorgyi says, “Whatever a man does he must do first in his mind.” I wholeheartedly agree with that statement, it's the truth. You can't write without thinking about what you are going to write about first, you can't say anything unless you think of it first, well at least anything meaningful. Every single thing that you do originate in your mind.

Whether that be an easy task such as writing your name, hopefully easy for most of you, or a harder task - when you may not know the path to your goal.

Apply this process to fitness - and we can say that you have to see yourself thin and an ultimate outcome of weight loss in your mind first - before you can even begin the process.

Why is it for some people that being heavy is a frame of mind rather than just a temporary condition. I have to say as a Spokane Fitness Coach - if you are going to be fit and healthy you have to start thinking like a fit and healthy person. This can be summed up by a quote from Mike Todd, “I've never been poor, only broke. Being poor is a frame of mind. Being broke is only a temporary situation.”

You must believe it yourself before you can actually do something. You are never going to be able to do something if you don't think you can or don't believe you can't. If you are stuck in a “heavy mindset”, your body will stay the same accordingly.

Planning is indeed a guarantee for reaching your Spokane Fitness goal. When you go grocery shopping do you have a plan? Or do you go around the isles letting your stomach decide for you what you will buy at the time.

I always advocate shopping with a list when you are full. If you plan out your grocery shopping trip you are much more likely to get only what's on your list. Then you don't have those extra boxes of twinkles or bag of cookies sneaking into your shopping cart - which would be a very bad temptation to have lurking in your hosue - unless you eat everything on the way home in the car.

The title of a great book, “Battlefield Of The Mind”, says it all in the title. Why have a battle take place in your mind each time you need to make a decision. You are tempted to dive into that freshly baked double-triple fudge cake at the office party, are you going to sit their staring at it and try and decide what you should do, weighing the pro's and con's in your mind.

Or are you going to let your goals decide for you. You say to yourself I already thought this out, and this won't help me reach my goals, so you happily reject the temptation and move on to the delightful broccoli casserole.

Let your mind decide what your future will be rather than your stomach.

Plan out and determine what you want to happen in the future, and how you are going to go about getting there. If you don't decide yourself - your circumstances will shape what happens. Use your mind to create the right circumstances in order for you to succeed on your journey to Spokane fitness.What if I told you there was a tool so powerful and so helpful that it can almost put your quest for fitness here in Spokane on auto-pilot, well, I would be telling you the truth.
