10 Fun Ways to Get Motivated
1. Buy a cute, expensive outfit a size too small…..then hang it where you can see it in your closet, or better yet, next to the fridge or treadmill. Oh, and lose the receipt. You don’t want an “out”.
2. Compete…..with your neighbor, your bff, your enemy, the checkout girl at Shop Rite. Competition works. My clients in NYC live for it!
3. Come clean and get accountable. Tell everyone about your new quest to get into shape. They’ll constantly ask you about it and you’ll feel guilty not following through.
4. Try on a bathing suit. I tell all of my clients when they’re feeling extra confidant in March, to go try on a bathing suit in a department store. The fluorescent lighting along with pale skin is enough to make you sprint to the nearest gym.
5. Get a cute new workout outfit or cool new sneaks. When you look good, you feel like working out! And nothing gets you motivated more than a new pair of springy kicks!
6. Get a boyfriend or girlfriend. I’ll say no more.
7. Sign up for a race. The training schedule will make you workout daily.
8. Host an event or accept an invitation to a party. Most of the people that I’ve trained love looking great and getting in shape for weddings, bar mitzvahs, communions, etc. You want to look awesome at these events!
9. Book a vacation. Get in shape just so you can show friends and co-workers the pictures from your trip.
10. Post photoshopped pictures of yourself on Facebook and then book a reunion event with your old school friends. You’ll work hard to live up to the photos of yourself!
Haha. This is a funny one. But whatever works for you!!!
Hope these gave you some ideas to get motivated (and gave you a chuckle on Monday morning).
