Coach Training and Finding Your "Why?"

I recently joined a coach training group. When I first signed up to be a Beachbody coach I did not ever think I would be interested in being a coach. I never thought I was in good enough shape or was the kind of person who looked like a coach so how could I be one? But Beachbody coaches are not nutrition experts or fitness gurus. They are normal people just like you who have found something that they LOVE and they cannot help but share it with others!!

Part of my coach training was to get outside of my comfort zone and make a video to share with our training group. The video was supposed to be about your "why." Your "why" is your driving force- it is the deep rooted reason for doing what you are doing. 



What is your "why?" Typically people will first respond with weight loss or getting healthy. But this is probably not really your "why." These are actually your goals. Your "why" is the thing that will help you preserver when you lose your motivation (because this happens to everyone!) Your why is the reason why you get out of bed each morning, the thing that you would sacrifice to protect without thinking twice. Your "why" is what helps you to achieve your goals!

Today I want you think about your health and fitness goals. What are they? Write them down. Then I want you to take a good look at your goals and think, why is this so important for me? Why do I want to reach these goals? And write that down as well. 

If after doing this activity you feel empowered, I want you to take your goals and your "why" and I want you to hang them up in a place where you can always look at them. Maybe it is on your mirror in your bathroom, or on they wall next to your computer, or next to your kitchen sink where you wash dishes. Hang it up where you will look at it everyday and it will help you on those days where you can't help but think, "I don't want to try today."

I want to help you to achieve your health and fitness goals. Please reach out to me and let's find a way for you to work towards them every single day!
