“Back it up 5, and kick it AGAIN!”

by admin

Fitness is a bit like brushing your teeth.

If you brush, your teeth stay looking sharp.

If you don’t, they start to look crusty after a couple days.

I always wondered why I LOVE working out.

Why do I consistently treat myself to the daily grind, pushing and pulling weights, almost everyday of my life. Is something wrong with me mentally? Some would dare say, ‘yes’.

No really, I can’t go more than 3 days without sweating, and feeling the burn or my body starts shutting down, a slow and dangerous crawl. It’s that ‘energized’ feeling I get, like a drug, I must do, religiously.

And if I don’t workout, negativity starts filling the air.

Before you know it, I’m rattling off non-sense at my wife, the kids and my dog. I’m human.

Sound familiar to you?

Fitness (physical activity) has become a personal commitment, a kind of challenge to myself, an oath of oaths to myself – to stay as strong as I can be. Because my family depends on me. A personal core value.

If I CHOOSE to skip a workout, slack on the eating – who am I really doing harm to?

Some people say it’s selfish to want it all. Well, I want it all. I want to be healthy, fit and strong. So I don’t go down the road of spiraling death cycle of despair, backaches, headaches and negative, self-inflicted mind bugs.

Fitness is like brushing teeth to me.

Which leads me to this…see if you get the message.

I recently got a text from a client, (let’s call him Joe) who has done tremendously well (lost a lot of fat) in our program in the past. Ate really great. Did his off-day workout homework. And he felt like a million bucks.

But here recently, it’s been extremely ‘difficult’ for him to make his appointments.

First, it was coming in late. Two weeks later, turned out to be showing up 15minutes before his session ended. Now, it seems Joe has given up on himself. He texted ‘I’m quitting for a while. Just too busy right now’. Perhaps, for more important matters he feels are of greater priority – than his health.

And if I was just an average ‘Joe’ counting rep trainer, (no pun intended), I probably wouldn’t care.

But I’d be doing a dis-service to him as his personal trainer and accountability coach. Right?

But you see, I care, as most successful people do, about my customers/clients who’s well-being depend on me. It’s in my blood to want to be the person you turn to.

So I texted back, told Joe ‘you’re not quitting’. And continued asking myself, ‘where did I fail with him’? Can’t I just brush his teeth for him?

My daughter is 4 years old. She started brushing her teeth now. So I answered myself, ‘No’.

Moral of this story is…

You can BE anything you want to be. But the ‘catch’, is it must be something you commit to 100%. Things will always get in the way. Nothing will be perfect ALL the time. Your plans will be disrupted some days. But you gotta just ‘back it up 5, and kick it again’, as my dad always says.

Furthermore, LOTS of people spend their entire life chasing money, only to spend it on getting their health back. Before it’s too late.

In the end, their life was devoted to making as much money as they could, only to spend it all on health care bills, never truly enjoying the life of happiness/health they wanted.

You’ve got to really set in your mind why you want to do something. Go through the temporary pain to get there.

Your ‘WHY’ must be so dang strong, there’s nothing that can stop you.

I recommended to Joe, we sit down and talk. Hopefully he reads this. And we re-establish his commitment to his health. I’ll keep you posted to what turns out.

What do you have to say? I’m curious what comments you have for Joe. Or maybe you’ve been here before, as we all have. Any feelings you have about Joe or yourself, and how you overcame ‘life’ interruptions in regards to your fitness routine.

I’d love for you to share those comments below.

If you never quit/give up, YOU WIN.

Client Success Story

by admin

Boy, do I have a story for you.

Please NOTE: I’m not here to ‘raise my like status’. I simply advise, recommend and help provide you with tools you need to be successful. The doing comes from, well,…. see below.

There’s some great take-aways you should always remember, if your to continue to improve your life.

I’ve been a certified personal trainer and lifestyle coach for roughly 12 or so years, now.

And witnessed 100′s of folks finally achieve their ‘ideal life-style’.

Beautiful memories I’ll take to my grave…

One memory comes to mind is of a man named Bob (above) who’s performed VIP Private workout sessions with me for over a year.

But before I share ‘how he did it’, let’s examine some FACTS.

He is 58 yrs old…

And -

*He did not do 1500 situps a day

*He did not buy ‘diet pills’

*He did not ‘hire a hypnotist

*He did not eat broccolli, everyday

*He did not say ‘I can’t, I’ll try it or I’ll see if this works

Bob made a commitment to himself, and happiness.

He’ll be the first to tell you how bad he hated looking at himself in the mirror. And how livid it made him feel when he did.

But what changed Bob’s mind, wasn’t from a ‘shy’ I don’t like myself, I want a change, statement.

It was the hurt, shame and low self-image deep down inside of himself, he came to grips with.

And when he did come to grips, and recognized the frustration… it was really THE hidden POWER he needed to ultimately make a change.

You see, if you want to lose 50lbs., it has to come deep down if you want to really achieve it.

You MUST ‘dig’ to find your frustration.Sounds weird, I know.

Maybe take some time to reflect what go you where you’re at today.

Bob’s transformation (as with any success) stems from ‘bad feelings’ about something in your life.

The Good News:

Bad circumstances in your life can actually (and are) FUEL you can use to push yourself to the next level, ..that being, commitment.

Bob stayed committed, we put together a plan and he found his purpose (his why).

And that’s why I think Bob has achieved what some call, ‘AMAZING’ transformation.

Heck, anyone can achieve a perfect body. It’s not rocket, do 3 sets of 8000 reps in the transverse plane’ science like so many make it out to be.

With a little will-power, lots of commitment, motivation, showing up, and the right plan for you, you can achieve whatever body (life) you want to lead. Throwing out the ‘bad, self-destructing thoughts’ always helps, too.

It all boils down to ‘finding’ your demons, and fighting them.

Trusting in yourself, everyday, you can do this.

You CAN do it, and believing it into fruition.

So, what’s Bob’s training program look like?

Bob trains 2XWEEK, on Monday’s & Wednesday’s. Just 30 Minutes.

He’s a celebrity, he’s done it all, and he don’t even know it.

That’s just icing on the cake when you talk to a guy who’s destroyed the ‘age card’, and every other ‘label or gimmick’ you want to paint.

If you like what you read, I encourage you to please share any personal weight-loss victories you feel could help others.

Congratulations to Bob, and for giving us the opportunity to believe in you.

Can’t fight this feeling

by admin

Who sings this song?

The chorus goes, “I can’t fight this feeling anymorrrreeeee, I forgotten what I started fighting forrrrrr….”?

My mother used to play this song in her car, almost daily.

Do you know the artist?

Here lately, there’s an 80’s epidemic of song choices go off in my head.
Anyway, if you know the artist who sings ‘can’t fight this feeling anymore’, please post below his/her name.

There’s REAL significance in the song tied to today’s blog post.

Ok, here goes today’s quick TOD (Topic of Discussion):
Are you ‘unhappy’ with the way you look and feel? The ‘bombshell’ question.

If you looked in the mirror right now, naked, would you LOVE what you see?
Pick one. Yikes! Or Yea Baby!

Are you UNHAPPY with how you look and/or feel?
Yes? (keep reading)

Do you ever ask yourself seriously WHY you feel like that?

Your negative self-image usually stems from a MAJOR (but hidden) problem that has NOTHING to do with your 8-5 job, eating habits or lifestyle.

And MORE about a much bigger problem running rampant in today’s society.

What’s the MAJOR Problem….?

CONFUSING SOMEONE ELSE’S GOALS, AS YOUR GOALS!

No one ever talks about this! Most folks would rather you follow them!

But let’s look at closer…
If you’re feeling lousy about who you, first, consider this may be a result of listening too much to what other folks think about you! Maybe you’re trying to fit into their ‘box’.

Think about it…Goals of 6 pack abs, and buns of steel, size 8, may not even be ‘right’ for you.

Yep, I said it.

I’m going to harp on this more…

Let’s assume you don’t like the way you look and feel anymore. You join ‘Globo-Shmoe’ gym. Buy the membership. And join your ‘size 0’ co-worker to fiddle with the weights for 30minutes, 3 times a week.

You and her (co-worker) go workout because you want to wear size 0’s like her.

But, …back it up a second.

Have you slowed down, and asked, “Is this really what I want for myself?”

And am I going about it the right way? Right exercises, Sets, Intensity, etc.
Or is this goal of wearing really skinny jeans, really realistic?

If your goal is to wear a size 8, and you believe it with confidence, then more power to you.

But point I’m trying to make, is to just be careful. If you’re fitness goals happen to be someone else’s goals, and not what YOU really want, then re-clarify what they are for you to be happy. And find what MUST BE the fruit of your efforts.

It can sound rather scary at times, when you finally wake up living someone else’s ‘wants’ in life. All the efforts you put in were a waste when all you really wanted was to feel a better quality of life, minus the size 0.

It’s easy to ‘go with the flow’ of what others are doing, and think you got to follow in their footsteps. But make no mistake, find out what you want, first.
And heck with everyone else!

And whether it’s because ‘King Tut’ told you, or the latest reviews from Reader’s Digest says, be sure you know the ‘feeling you feel (bad self image), is a feeling only YOU know to be true (not from your peers opinions), and can ONLY THEN, be worth the fight (your effort)’.

Stop fighting the feeling (of unrealistic goals), (as the song suggest) if you forget along the way what you’re fighting for. You may forget because the goals you chose weren’t really yours to begin with!

I’m writing this to illustrate a very good reason why it’s important you always look from ‘within’, on what you want out of life.

Let you inner voice decide what’s right for you.

Pick your friends, business partners…anyone you come in contact with, WISELY.

Know your goals are YOUR goals. Understand WHY you have those goals. And then commit to sticking to the plan for long-term success.

And also, if you’d like more information on how you can ‘stick to YOUR plan’ for long-term success, on your terms, towards your fitness goals (not someone else’s), then call (832) 279-3565 now for free initial diagnostic fitness and nutrition consultation, for a limited time only.

Committed to your Success,

Is Your Life Out of Control?

by admin

Great lessons learned. Make time for yourself. Put yourself first.

Listen, when you see your life spiraling out of control, HIT the pause button.

My dad says, if you are unhappy with life, work, or <insert your unhappiness here>. Just say to yourself, “back it up 5 and kick it again”.

Maybe it’s time you start with a clean canvas. Start over.

I admit as a business owner, I’ve dealt (and personally deal with) these out-of-control lifestyles at times, like everyone else does. And I’m learning.

And I’ve also met 100’s of clients who initially joined Texas City Boot Camp with very similar ‘out of control’ circumstances in life. I’m digging this ‘out of control’ topic into the ground because I see fit you acknowledge it ASAP, if you’re life is out of control.

Here’s why….

Do you work 8 hours a day in your professional career? Yes.
Take your kids every day to daycare and pick them up? Yes.
Have ailing parents who need help at home? Yes.
Prepare dinner for the family at 6PM? Yes.
Put kids to bed after the 3 b’s – baths, brushing teeth, and bedtime stories? Yes.
Have a pile of work (house cleaning, etc.) that needs tending to? Yes.
Did you find yourself sleeping less than 5 hours? Yes.
Is your self-esteem low? Yes.
If this sounds like you (up to this point), can you honestly say you’ve made time and put yourself first?

When I meet with someone about their health and fitness goals, usually it boils down to the above.

You make all these commitments putting everybody else, first.

You DO all this stuff for others so you don’t feel you’re pegged as a bad mother/father, boyfriend/girlfriend or wife/spouse.

And sure, it’s also because you love your family.

But don’t get it twisted.

Yes, supporting your family is important. But if you’re all jacked up in the head, walk with your head low, living in a body you’re unhappy with and life out of control, what good are you really doing?

Why is it that you do for everyone, sleep less and every year there’s another bump in your pant size? Could there be a correlation?Make time for myself?

Sadly, as bad as it sounds, when you’re feeling you ‘do’ for everyone else and not yourself, then really ‘you’re no good to anyone’ (Thank you Sean).

And that’s exactly why you’re not happy the way you look or feel anymore.

On top of that, it can be hard to pull yourself out, or even recognize you’re in deep water when you have put everyone first, for years.

But where you’ll eventually end up, if continued, is a dark, resentful, terribly cold place.

Yes, I’m digging this one into the ground.

And that’s why an ‘intervention’ (coaching, mentors, emails) must be really read, heard and taken to heart if you’re to change any bad lifestyle habits or poor perceptions of yourself, that you may be forming.

So that’s why when I sit down with a client, first thing addressed is ‘who is number 1?’

You’ve been living under a rock of ‘you’re # 2’, and it’s my job to snap you out of it.

No more #2!

Your life must exist by you putting yourself, your fitness (and your spirit) first.

How you manage to make time for you, isn’t always easy, by a long shot. I’ll be first to tell you that.

You must work. You must care for your family.

I continue to learn, through school of hard-knocks, you must come first, to be your best to others.

My ‘must haves’ in life -

Workout minimum 3 times a week
Form a solid eating schedule
Plan out your day (family/work)
Hire a coach and/or mentor
Make it a habit to do something for you, daily.
Doing just 1 thing everyday, for you, not the kids, hubby/wife or anyone else, will pay off huge dividends in the long run.

If you FAIL to recognize when your life is out of control, or find unhappiness, first look back at yourself and ask – Am I taking care of me, first?

And also if you’d like more information how to help ‘make time for yourself putting yourself first’ by living a healthier, purposeful life, give our office a call at (832) 279-3565 to schedule a free initial diagnostic health and fitness consultation. Our service includes Meditation, Pilates, Yoga, 7 day nutrition plan, Personalized fitness coaching – all rolled up into Texas City Boot Camp for Women.

Make time for you, create a plan, set some goals, aim high, and the rest will follow.

Back it up 5, and kick it again,

Jerremy

Billboard Reads Lose 10lbs in 2 Days…What!?!?!

by admin

After driving back to the studio, I ran across a billboard that read “Lose 10lbs in 2 days!”

And having read that, as a member of my fitness community, I’m going to ‘dive into’ this because, as funny as cheesy as it sounds, ‘I really do care’.

(WARNING: I’m a nice guy. But I’m not sugar coating anything here…this stuff burns me, and here’s why.)

In January, there’s more gym memberships sold than the rest of the entire year.

And AFTER a membership is sold, the average person’s membership is used only 2 visits per year!

Why you think that is?

Because most folks want 10lbs gone in 2 days like it’s a rat race or something!

And sadly, most companies will prey on folks knowing you’ll buy it, especially in the month of January.

And so they will write clever ads, sign you up with gimmicky, ‘dance in your living room’ gadets, or the latest ‘trick’ – give you ‘Doctor Prescribed’ needle injections promising you overnight success.

Truth is, most of it don’t do did-duh-ly squat.

Sure, you may lose 10lbs of water and more frightening, muscle.

(Your HEART is a muscle…Hmm…..That must NOT be good.)

But long-term happiness (which is what you want from yourself, your family and life) will not come from these kinds of plans.

It just burns me to see ‘junk’ people put out there luring people in off lies like 10lbs in 2 days.

‘TAKE WAY #1′
Your view towards your fitness goals today should be – NOT as a ‘quick fix’….

..but a life-with-style change.

But I still hear some of you….

You train hard and only see your waist line go down every once in a blue moon….

Ok, I understand that can be down right depressing at times.

However, I also understand it’s sometimes EASIER to just blame your
‘outside’ circumstances as to why it didn’t come off faster.

Unfortunately, it’s a common place thing.

Buy the product/service/membership, then do it so-so for 2 months… then blame the product/service as to why it’s not ‘working’.

Crazy as it sounds…some of the time, it’s NOT an ineffective product or service, it’s our FEAR to admit our own faults or mistakes.

Not just your faults related to your fitness goals, but any goals in life.

Because when you admit your faults, you MUST take full responsibility for your actions.

And most folks ‘cringe’ at the thought of responsibility.

Just as I took responsibility to quit feeling sorry for myself, the sooner you take responsibility for living a healthier life – the sooner your waistline should change for the better…

And a 10lbs in 2 days ad must not change the way you see your investment in your health.

‘TAKE AWAY #2′
If you are someone who wants to live a happier, healthier life you MUST – admit your faults and take action towards attaining your goals.

Point of today’s email:
You only get 1 body, 1 life and 1 family to spend your life with…and only 1 chance to make it your best.

Think in terms of today, not tomorrow.

Right now, there’s more ‘gimmicks’ out there to make your head spin.

Protect yourself, and keep your eyes on the road of success.

Committed to Your Success,
Jerremy

Buy Into This And Get What You Want

by admin

Do you have something you want REAL bad?

Would you do ANYTHING to get it?

If you want it bad enough, you will get it.

I’m going to tell you a brief story of a lady I met, and steps on what I think is vital to anyone who wants to lose weight.

I sat down with a lady last month who’s tried dieting for 10 years, paid a health club membership for 7 years (used it once), done some weird drug that involves poking yourself with a needle and spent who know’s how much trying to lose weight.

But crazy as it sounds, she didn’t lose any weight.

Not one dime.

She went on to tell me how tired and scared she was to try anything else to lose weight.

Perhaps, maybe because she fears if she tries anything else, it would result in another heart-wrenching failure.

Truth is, most people don’t like failure. Puts a bad taste in our mouth.

And it’s FEAR of being wrong, or failing, that can keep you from ever losing weight or ever really getting what you want – if you LET FEAR TAKE OVER.

But something funny happens to people who really want something BAD enough.

They don’t give up at defeat.

They plug away to lose 100lbs.

Most folks call it ‘luck’. Or by chance. Or it was the gizmo that did it.

But what’s really happening is this person made up their mind, before ever investing their time and energy into losing weight, that they were going to win!

Sure, having a great coach and system that supports your goals is very important.

But you having the right mindset is a MUST to your success.

Something we coach daily here.

As my conversation with the lady continued, turns out the lady hung with ‘loser’ friends. People who brought her down everyday, mentally and physically.

I recommended she ditch those friends.

Because her lifestyle habits consisted of poor out-to-eats, partying too much and zelch on exercise.

Do you know the reason why you eventually win? Why some you can lose weight while others don’t?

It’s because you know inside, and believe you’ll have what you want. You decide to pay the price to get it. And see yourself already in possession of it.

The turtle eventually wins the race, not the hare.

Sounds weird, I know.

But if you’re open minded, and know what you want, and believe you’ll do more than ‘try’ to get it, that you WILL get it, you set yourself up for success from the start.

Say to yourself, ‘I will do it’.

And when you do, somewhere in your life, you begin to see your failures as opportunities as to why you want to achieve (you fill in the blank) in the first place.

Problems are merely illusions to try and temporarily push away folks who allow it to happen.

But underneath problems, if you’re strong and clear about what you want, you will find opportunity.

Maybe that’s the Entrepreneur spirit coming out of me…

Point I’m trying to make is this…

In order to achieve any worthy goal, before you buy anything to help you, you must first BUY into yourself.

BUY into you with confidence about what you WILL accomplish.

Really focus hard on what you want, everyday.

I told the referenced lady above something along these lines.

Finally, it ‘clicked’ to her what I was trying to say.

If you’re experiencing similar situations in life right now, and you’ve struggled losing weight in the past, and you’re serious about getting help, feel free to send us an email to support@tfthouston.com or call us at (832) 279-3565 for a no obligation, free diagnostic health and fitness consultation now.

Charity Can Food Drive This Thanksgiving

by admin

(Above: A picture of our group on Day 1 of Turkey Busting Workouts Can Food Drive)

Last Week was one of the most rewarding feelings.

Over 200 cans of food were raised to benefit the Galveston County Food Bank. And help the less fortunate.

Thanksgiving morning, we had over 30 men and women attend the 2 day charity event called the Turkey Busting Workout Event.

Each person brought 1 can food for 1 free bootcamp session to feel great before spending time with the family on Thanksgiving.

Special thanks to Jenny Senter & Galveston County Daily News for publishing the newsrelease about the event.

I met some great people who want to make a difference in their health. And in the world.

Thanks to all for attending, giving back and giving your body a great, heart-pumping workout!

As I Got Older, I Gained More

by admin

When you think there’s nothing else you can do, you think, and do, again.

I share you this email from Texas City Boot Camp member Lynn Byram. Her story is something I feel a lot of people can relate to when it comes to fat-loss. Not so we can say how ‘good’ we are! No.

Instead, let this email inspire YOU – no matter what age, sex, religion, color, hobbies – YOU deserve to look and feel your best.

**********************

“I just wanted to shoot you a short email of my happiness to be at your facility. When I signed up I had told you I was not over weight, just over fat. I think that is true of most women my age. I’ve never had a weight problem, but as I have gotten older, my metabolism has changed drastically and my waist has grown accordingly. I have tried to exercise in the past, tried every diet pill imaginable, even going so far as to join a weight loss clinic. Nothing worked like what you’ve been able to do since I signed up. Even though I went to a weight loss clinic under a doctors supervision, my weight loss was minimal and it took me four months to lose 10 pounds. Since I joined your facility, I lost almost as much weight in one month that it took me four months at the weight loss clinic. I’ve never been a fan of exercising, I’ve always though I was too busy. Well, that has changed under your supervision. We may only be there for 45 minutes, but it’s a very productive 45 minutes. I look forward to my workouts and it is absolutely wonderful to be able to put on clothes that were once snug around the waist and not have red marks all over my waist from the fit. Like I said, when I finish the workouts, I’m dragging out the door, but when I get home and get ready for work, I feel great. I honestly can say that I feel better than I’ve felt in a long time.

Right before my Mother passed away, she told me how concerned she was about Rene’s (my younger sister) weight. Since I was so happy with my time at your facility I decided to sign her up for her birthday present, When I initially talked to you about her being special needs, you had no hesitation about her coming to the work outs with me. You had said you’d work with her and you have. In todays world, some people do not spend the time necessary to work with someone like Rene but you have. You’ve gone above the call of duty working with Rene. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your time and patience with her. Even though she might have some difficulty with an exercise, you’re always there to modify it so that she can continue with her work out. Rene has been very sedentary since moving in with me after Mother’s death. It’s hard for her to do anything with everything is done for her. Since she has started coming to your facility, she’s up and moving more than she has in over a year. It has made a remarkable difference in her activities through the day.

I think one of the things about the facility that makes it all work is your positive and up beat support. This means a great deal and I think I can speak for everyone this positive support helps us all reach our goal.

Again, thanks for everything you’ve done.

Lynn Byram”

Client Success Story – The Brand New Becca Cash

by admin

Awesome story to share with you.

That’s Rebecca Cash with me at 213lbs in January of this year (far left).

Becca when she started Texas City Boot Camp: 213lbs, Size 22

Becca October 27th: 148.5lbs, Size 8

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of interviewing long-time Texas City Boot Camp member Rebecca Cash.

In case you didn’t know, Rebecca started out Texas City Boot Camp after attending one of our fitness speaking events at a doctor’s office, about 10 months ago.

(Click the video to watch Becca tell her story)

At the event, I remember vividly she was one out of 14 ladies who signed up to Texas City Boot Camp.
She felt miserable, hated how she looked in the mirror.

I begged her to let me take a picture of her (top above) on her first day of bootcamp.

“I’m ready to do this”, I remember her saying.

Listen, it’s easy to be a complainer, whine about your problems and flat out give up.

But she was different. And little did I know Becca would rockout like she has….I mean 213 to 148lbs is no easy feat. It took guts, support, accountability and most of all, people who care about you.

Not only that, but her 76 year mom joined too, and losted 8 inches in her waist, …more on that later.
Becca went against the grain, overcoming personal problems and things which once held her back.

And she showed the world how when you have a strong reason why you want something, you do it, and you do it with focus, determination, and most all committment.

She’s worked HARD exercising, but she does it because she knows doing it, will help her life. And so she’ll do 2, 3, sometimes 4 days a week exercising.

Listen as she spills the beans on how she went from 213lbs to 148.5lbs…the video above.

And if you’d like to join Becca, Test Drive 1 Free Week of Texas City Boot Camp with No Obligation & No Strings Attached. And if it’s right for you, great.

If not, we depart as friends.

Committed to your Success,

Jerremy

Find Your Why, And The Rest Will Follow

by admin

Last week, I went to Orlando to give a
15-minute presentation of our company evolution.

But I left the stage not too sure if I communicated the
message I really wanted to convey and how success
is really made.

I feel it’s important you know my message,
and some lessons I took away from
my event.

So I wrote this email (below) right after.
******** *********
The 1 million dollar SECRET to you achieving ANYTHING
in life depends on what I’m about to tell you.

So please read carefully, it’s NOT what you think.

Follow me here…

Have you ever tried to run on a treadmill everyday or
bought some kind of yo-yo diet?

If you have, then I bet 3 weeks in, things got BAD (you missed your
workouts & skipped meals) and found yourself pissed off
because you fell off the wagon, and decided to quit.

Ever been there?

America has become a ‘TRYING’ something society. Fast, easy and yesterday.

Unfortunately, this ‘trying’ has lead the masses to using ‘I was tired’
excuses to justify why eating junk as a family every stinking night,
is considered, the norm, and OK.

But why is that? Why do we (most of America)
continue feeding ourselves
and our children poison?

Why do we make lame excuses
of why we didn’t do something, instead
of achieving success?

I’ll tell you why….(no pun intended)

It’s because your ‘WHY’ isn’t strong enough.

When you commit to do something, there has to be a strong reason why,
before you can harness the true power it has on
commitments you honor, thus, resulting in a
change of habit or behavior.

See how this helps you attain your goals?

You must re-program your mind, life and change -
because what you care about the most depends on it.

Truth is, sometimes it takes near death experience (like in my life)
to give you a strong enough WHY to
build a company as Texas City Boot Camp.

Success is from Suffering.

Soon you get tired of suffering,
and either run from it your entire life (give up)
or do something about it (success).

WHY you commit to do anything must be so strong it
creates emotion, fire, power and ACTION!

Simple ‘trying’ something wastes people’s money, time and it won’t cut the mustard.

More often, you simply end back up at square
one trying the next best thing.

Ask yourself, “Do I want to avoid being ill-stricken,
bed-ridden and gulping pills 20 years from now?

Stay healthy so I may one day watch my grandkids graduation? You bet I do.

Your WHY must mean something special to you.

It’s why you invest your money, time and commitment to something.

My point is this…
I met very successful people in Orlando last week…close friends of President George Bush Sr.,
fitness industry icons, people who went through strife, suffering and heartache before they really
found their ‘WHY’ in life, and self-made their success.

To sum it up, I want you to find your WHY in life.

And when you do, you’ll know it. Not just in numbers (body measurements),
but you will attract things to help you continue on the straight and narrow path.

Why do you want to have, do or be (you fill in the blank here) and
see if that doesn’t raise some hairs on your skin.

The secret to success, weightloss, business or anything else
isn’t just about goals, it’s more importantly about WHY you want to accomplish them.

I know this email is really intense, but I want you to get what I’m saying.

What is your why?
Now, go write it down.

Get clear and set sail….

Committed to your success,
Jerremy
