I have been thinking about just how competitive this world is. Whether we like it or not we are all competitive. It is part of our nature---our survival instinct!
We compete in school for the best grades, to get into the best college....we compete on the job for promotions and in our personal lives for the best mates.
It's no wonder we sometimes have a hard time getting up in the morning to start a new day with a smile and loads of optimism!
Please, if you haven't read the insider blog today on the www.bodyforlife.com website posted by 2004 Champion, Julie Whitt..take a moment to read it. It is so lovely and she speaks from her heart!
In it Julie touches on our natural instinct to compete to become better people and talks about how she has channeled this instinct to become the best she can be.
One thing I have learned since adopting my new Body for Life lifestytle is that most of my new buddies are indeed competing, but they are competing to top their personal best! They are working hard to become the people they were intended to be! Happy and Healthy.
What is also wonderful is that these same people are eager to celebrate the victories of others who are reaching higher. BFL to me is really a group effort. When one person succeeds we all succeed! BFL buddies are there when you need them...and the favor is returned. Support is essential to our success.
If you have been struggling during your transformation---you may want to consider taking a bigger part in the BFL community. Celebrate the successes of others. If you are moved by someone's entry in the guestbook...drop them an e-mail. Offer encouragement, an electronic high-five...a vote of confidence.
If you are struggling... post a plea asking for help in overcoming the roadblocks you're encountering on the path to the new, healthy you.
You will be amazed at just how many people are here, ready and willing to cheer you on to the finish line!
Have a great BFL Day,
Your Buddy,
Michelle
