Top 3 Ways to Trick Your Mind Into Weight Loss Forever

By Andrew Hamill

It's estimated that 80% of all people who quit a new weight loss of fitness regimen, quit within the first 60 days. Why is this? Why do we naturally return to the same habits and routines that doom our results every time? How can we stay disciplined and completely focused the whole way through?

The main reason why we never stick with anything or really put forth any effort is because there is a dispute between our conscious and sub- conscious minds and what they are focused on. The laws of the universe state that whatever you focus on expands in your life. Here are the 3 most important techniques that you can use to not only accelerate your progress, but to keep you fully invested and motivated on accomplishing that new you.

1. Never ever take your eye off the ball.

We get inspiration to lose weight from experiences in our life. Something happens that makes us look into ourselves and re think the way we should be living. We lose the inspiration to continue or even start because we go back to thinking about the usual garbage.
Make it a point to spend at least 10 minutes everyday visualizing yourself accomplishing your goal. Sit by yourself quietly with your eyes closed, and take long deep breathes until you are in complete relaxation. Then begin to paint a picture in your mind of you losing the weight or whatever your goal may be. It' s crucial to be detailed about the differences and to feel the emotions that you would presumably feel at that moment.

2. Sweep yourself off your feet.
When does it not feel good to get a compliment or praise from someone we trust, respect and we like? Never! In order to influence your mind to make the necessary habitual changes, you have to do a little sweet-talking to yourself.
Do this next step at least twice everyday for 5 minutes at a time. Go into a room alone and repeat to yourself over and over again, " Your looking stronger, younger and healthier everyday. "

3. Plan to reward yourself.
The most important reason why people never get anywhere in life in general is because they choose to go nowhere! Make a definite choice of what you want to change about your health or appearance and write it down.
Start with the big picture. What is your fitness goal in the next year? Whatever that goal happens to be, break it down into smaller and easier monthly goals. Then make a plan to reward yourself at the end of the year with something awesome. Cruise, vacation, sky diving, just think of something that will excite the hell out of you. Then plan smaller reward for each month that you accomplish your smaller goals. This way you can always look forward to each month and really stay motivated.
