When you set out on a plan to lose weight, reduce fat, tone up and get fitter your actions and habits need to be congruent with your goal.

If you make excuses for not reaching your health and fitness targets then you must be wasting time doing the things that aren’t congruent with your goal.

Successful dieters and gym goers don’t make excuses because they implement the steps required to get the results they want. This can involve managing time more efficiently to prioritising elements of their lifestyle that are important for their goal.

You need to remember that you are accountable for your goals. Act like someone who wants to change and not like someone who doesn’t want to change.

Write down the things that need to be done so they stay at the top of your mind and this will help you get the important things done.

Daily disciplines matter in health and fitness. Stick to your plan 80% of the time and results will follow.
