The Decision To Be Healthy Is Yours To Make

by Marva Riley | Jan 19, 2021 | Blog | 0 comments

At the end of the day, the decision to be Healthy & Fit lies with you.

Many years ago when death knocked at my door, my sister was the most supportive person that I could turn to.
She listened to my complaints without judgment, accompanied me to doctors’ appointments, and was just there whenever I needed her.

At first, I dabbled in and out of attempts to change my lifestyle to a healthier one. Inconsistencies led to yo-yo dieting, inconsistent exercise routine, uncontrolled stress levels, and an overall undisciplined lifestyle.

As I became sicker and sicker, it dawned on me that my health is totally my responsibility. Yes, mine to do whatever I wish to do with it.
I wanted to feel better but wasn’t doing anything to accomplish that desire. Well, certainly not enough.
As if someone hit me in the head, I got up off the sofa…as it were. The decision was made that if I wanted to live. If I wanted to survive. If I wanted to enjoy a good quality of life, it was imperative that I implemented the necessary changes. This began my healing.

Too often we bump into friends, family, coworkers, and neighbors who express the desire to lose weight, get rid of illnesses. To sleep better, have more energy. They are however reliant on others…oftentimes their Healthcare providers to make the changes for them.
That Mindset gets us nowhere.

Healthy living is pretty simple. The first step to take in order to achieve the desired Heath & Wellness is to decide that we will do whatever it takes to accomplish our goals.

Once this decision is made, we have jumped over our biggest hurdle.
● Make the decision to get on and stay on the Healthy Path
● Do our best to stay on that Healthy Path
● Know that, although the path is not always easy, it is doable. You’re stronger than you think!
● Make that decision every day to give it your best effort
● When you slip & slide, hit that Reset button and try again.
Your girlfriends, guy friends, family members, partners can motivate you so much. The ultimate decision to be Healthy & Fit lies with you & YOU CAN DO THIS…Yes, You Can!!
