Mistake #1: Stop Thinking Other People Are Better Or More Gifted Than You
The healthiest people in the world are no different than you.
If you think I’m any different, or Jillian Michaels is any different, you’re wrong.
We’re all the same.
If you believe you’re just average or ordinary, you’re not taking responsibility for your life.
You have to be better than that.
You owe it to yourself, your family, and the world deserves better.
Every time you get out of your comfort zone you:
- exercise self-control
- increase your willpower
- release a powerful neurotransmitter called dopamine
All in all, that dopamine is the natural happiness drug.
Dopamine is released when you accomplish a small win, or many small wins throughout the day.
Small Wins Provide The Road Map To Living Lean
Small wins are everything, especially when it comes to Living Lean.
It’s less about doing one big thing and more about consistently getting small wins, and building them up daily, over time.
This is what leads to stunning success and that is what leads to Living Lean.
Hopefully you are consistently making these small wins, and building on them over and over again.
Also, don’t forget to celebrate these small wins throughout your journey.
Here’s another thing.
Mistake #2: Your Results Are Like A Mirror Of The 5 People You Hang Out
You become like the 5 people you hang out with most.
In other words, your results are the mirror of the results of the 5 people you hang out with most.
Take a look right now at the 5 people that you tend to hang out with.
Are they Living Lean or encouraging you to Live Lean?
Are they living the life that you want to live?
If not, I’m not telling you to stop hanging out with them.
I just want you to become more aware of your surroundings.
Mistake #3: Stop The Victim Speak
No more “victim speak”.
Your words are powerful.
Stop saying I can’t, I hate this, I’m weak, or I’m not a person that exercises.
You become your conversations that you have with yourself.
Get those positive affirmations going.
Start using empowering words such as:
- I can workout
- I’m a disciplined person
- I can find time prepare my meals.
Repeat this to yourself.

Although it’s better to repeat these empowering affirmations out loud, if you feel uncomfortable doing that, repeat them in your head.
Hopefully you enjoyed these motivational tips.
