Candace’s BodyBlog

If there is one thing I’m intrigued with during any body transformation is has to be the power of the mind.  Yes, lifting form and technique is important.  Of course, nutrition is the catalyst of making proper gains.  But getting into someone’s mind and trying to find out how to change their way of viewing their life, so that they can reach the next level… is just plain fascinating! Time and time again I see people putting obstacles in front of them…reasons why they can’t do their cardio, cook their food, eat all their meals, the list goes ooooonnn.  I say "Get out your fly swatter!" Shooooo away, whatever it is holding you back from your goal!
The power to change your life lies within you this very minute..this very second. And most likely you know what you need to do. Let go of the fear, hesitation and excuses and just simply start. One simple change, just one, can can set off a wonderful chain reaction you never could have seen coming. You are more powerful than you know. Stand up straight, push your shoulders back, chin up, and go make your life happen.

Don’t take life so personally. Afterall, life is just doing what life does…it throws things at you. It’s up to you whether you allow it to beat you down, or if you’re going to kick it back. Just stop thinking so much and come to grips with the fact that you may simply need to duck and dodge some of life’s hassles, and face head-on the more challenging difficulties. Tying up your mind with the "injustice of it all" is such a waste because most of the time, it’s more how we see it, than what is truth.

Keep your head up, and your eyes straight ahead because answers and possibilities are all around you..that’s what life does too!   Have a terrific weekend everyone!!
