Monday Morning MOJO 1/7/08

Good Morning MOJO,

It’s the 2nd week of the New Year and now is when it starts to get hard to keep those New Years Resolutions. When I went to the gym over the weekend, I was shocked by the number of cars in the parking lot. I’m not sure why…I shouldn’t have been…it was the same thing last year. There must have been 10 times the number of people there compared to last week. There where gyms all around the world with millions more people in them last week than the week before New Years. The unfortunate thing is, it’s the same millions more people who where in the gym the first week of January last year….and the year before that…and the year before that…and the year before that.... And by February 1st it will be back to the old regulars. So, why can’t we keep it up? Whether it is going to the gym, spending more time with our kids and/or spouse, eating healthier, losing weight, whatever it is…what can we do to keep those resolutions and make them changes for a lifetime…not just a week. It is good old discipline and accountability. If we are truly committed to having a better life, we need to tell everyone we know about our resolutions and ask them to help hold us accountable…we have to burn the boats, so to speak, and don’ t give ourselves a way back to the old us who hits the snooze bar. Because if we don’t burn the boats so that there is no going back when the going gets tough, we are going to revert back to all our old bad habits.

Now, when you are too tired to keep your commitments…to tired to keep inspired…to tired to keep being discipline and accountable, play this video and ask yourself…what would Lance say?: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hi7sPSOTErY

Make it a GREAT week!!!!

Happy New Year,
