5 Steps to Toss Out What’s Holding You Back

Toss It Out

Just as we clean out the closet, garage, refrigerator, vehicles we also need to clean out our lives. How?

Well let’s begin by writing down those actions be it fitness, personal or professional you have been second guessing. You know the ones that no longer serve you.

WRITE IT DOWN. No need to think about them because you will dismiss them and continue to repeat them. Write it down so you can really look at them. Once you look you will know the action or actions that need to be applied.

I am sharing suggestive action. PLEASE do not apply if you already know it is not for you. These are ONLY suggestions.

  1. Fitness – Your current regimen is not working out for you. Ask yourself this are you skipping the preferred time because of your schedule? No worries just be flexible in your timing. If your workouts are not working and you are in a gym how about a trainer (most gyms do have trainers). If not then stream your workouts. I love BODi as I have trainers and programs and yes I keep my workout schedule flexible. Click here to join BODi. Join Bodi You get a free week to workout plus free Shakeology (protein drink that assist with a fitness journey and curbs a bit of the munchies). You can also just join the community for free and see what others are doing. Maybe you need to add on to your current workouts. An add on will offset any plateau you are experiencing.
  2. Personal – This one can be a bit difficult but JUST STOP THE BS. Yes STOP it. You are and probably have been too hard on yourself. That negative talk stop it. You are BEAUTIFUL/HANDSOME. You need to acknowledge that right NOW. You can apply the changes you need with actions but don’t put it off because you don’t meet someone else expectation. So what because if you look closely they may not meet yours either. BUT hey no judgement of each other. BUT for you stop waiting for a particular thing (and you know what it is) to happen before you begin applying actions. ALSO know small steps/actions really do add up.
  3. Professional – Are there classes you need to take; I know sometimes it is the finances but look for community offerings just to begin. See what your HR has available. HR does not post what they can assist you, but if you come to them they will share. Let your manager know what you want to do and ask for suggestions. Write it down stop dragging daily and doing the same routine you know is not serving you and it just maybe stealing positive energy.
  4. Relationships – Communicate, communicate, communicate. Find that time to talk to your spouse/partner/significant other. Set up a date night/movie. Date night does not always mean you have to be in the public. Set the ambiance at home. There is also nothing wrong with seeking professional counseling. Erase that theory, if you are holding on to it; counseling is bad. No it is not. BUT first try communication. Communication open up so many doors and you’d be shock that your thoughts were some what on the incorrect side. Do Not listen to your girl or guy friends they may know a bit about you but in a relationship we are all different. The meter to LOVE is not visible.
  5. Finances – You already know there is a limitation on this topic because…… We already know what spending habits we are over in. Just a quick share. I love make-up and perfume. I am the first in line or near if I know Sephora or Ulta is having a sale or a new brand is coming in. Then it happened. I begin a clean up and out; this is when I realized I had duplicates and I had other brands I had never opened. Wasted monies. Yep I place myself on a NO Buy for months. So know where you are spending a bit too much it maybe dining out, clubbing, clothes, shoes, purses the list can go on. Evaluate do you really need the extra. Sometimes yes and sometimes no. You make the decision and apply the action.

So with the read what are you going to Toss Out?

Create Your Own Trend: Embrace Uniqueness

Really Where Are You Trending?

How easy is it to follow what is trending and it is not really you AT ALL. Just follow to be included in that same old boring talk/conversations you have no interest in. Following the same steps, going to the same shops for coffee etc. looking at the TV shows and so much more. MOST of ALL going to that gym and you are really not working out, well maybe for a few but not to your BEST.

I want you to know at this moment, I want you to create YOUR TREND. Realizing what is trending be it fashion, the new show, that old coffee shop really does not work for you. CREATE YOU. Yep the best of you. Just because it is high in the fashion does not mean it looks good on you. Find your fashion, what makes you stand out, look good, feel good, be UNIQUELY YOU. Well now you got it that is your fashion.

The coffee shop you have been visiting be it daily or once in awhile is it you? REALLY? Do you like the coffee or you really want to check out the one down the block. Go ahead check it out. Quick share. I have switched from a coffee shop because it was raved about and I now have 2 others that works for me, taste better and the pricing so loved by my card. I was following the trend until I decided hmmm. Let’s try this one and so glad I did. The same with TV.

DON’T judge me. I like a good show sometimes especially when I am amongst good company. BUT …. Well I have peeked in on a few shows (never finishing) that was recommended and so not me and the actions were unsettling and I was not happy. We all have our likes and dislikes but me – that’s another time. BUT are you really enjoying some of the shows or do you need to be in the talk with your friends/peers/co-workers and whom ever else. It’s okay to acknowledge the show just isn’t for you. Then recommend your show or what you do- Establishing your TREND.

That gym, are you really working out or are you just going in doing a few reps after you find an open machine or weight bench and leave. Did you ask for a trainer to help you? Is it for you. The gym is good if it is for you. Me I love streaming my workout. It fits in my schedule, which is adjusted several times during the week. Go to the gym is a trend for many. Notice I said for many. There are people that really get the best benefits in the gym. BUT if you are not one of those just click on the link for streaming beyond BODi. You decide your level, and yep nutrition and challenges a community to share plus in the challenges you are awarded. But first maybe you want to just join the community which is FREE.

Friday Fitness Check: Are You a Strong Finisher?

Friday Your Rank STRONG Finisher or Fumbler

How did this week go for you? Rank yourself, be truthful and do not over judge yourself because either way you are a WINNER.

Did you achieve all set goals this week and maybe up leveled in a few, perhaps you surpassed a set goal. Remember your goals are to fit your lifestyle, fitness level, joy and happiness. Also no to be harsh no goal is too small. I’m applauding myself in a weekly set goal (it’s an add on). Minimum of 3 days a week with my other workouts to walk at least 2 miles. It is Friday and I have walked 4 days and a range of 2.50 – 3 miles. I think it it a strong finisher.

NOW if you fumbled, no blame, no guilt. It is time to RECOVER the fumble. Evaluate that fumble, correct it and run the play for a WIN. Which means recognizing, evaluating and re writing the plan makes you too “STRONG FINISHER“

Raise Your Glass To

Tuesday Test It

Yes, let’s Do That. Test It Tuesday. How about raising your glass and give it a test. Test those self sabotaging limits you have placed on yourself. And to let you know, YES, you placed limits on yourself and NOW it is time to remove them.

So today go ahead and raise your glass to the test or tests because I am so counting on you for the win. Fitness, Personal, Professional go do it. I cannot tell you where or what they are but you and only you.

Can you hear me, I just cheered you. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BITTER No – BETTER Yes

Your Decision Will Decide The Action

How many times have you as I have and I know many others (which is okay if we don’t always shout out the bitter) in an action that did not receive the action or views we wanted. And then we look at someone else and see the highlights they are and have received. How easy it is to become bitter and for many will stop actions to level up for the outcome we want.

Have I experienced this? Yes, not just in one area of my life; but in my personal, professional and fitness journeys. I had to learn not to compare, by the way will hold you up. Be the best of you always.

Bitter I had to erase and put that big no stamp on it.

What I did learn and this is through growth and listening to pod casts that apply to my growth, to apply actions to improve to get BETTER. How? First it is necessary to know what you want, evaluate your current actions, self acceptance of the you as you are and put a plan in action. REMEMBER a plan of action needs to written down. Find that one person that is going to keep you accountable to the plan and the actions. I know we hear accountability in fitness a lot but it is applicable in every are of your life you want to grow in.

Find that mentor. Listen to me a “Mentor” not a consultant (not knocking on consultant) A mentor one that is willing to guide, encourage you because they too have experienced similar challenges in growth. Also mentors can be in a community with several people each sharing and guiding one another to uplevel. For the sake of growth make certain these are ALWAYS POSITIVE INPUTS. Time to now say yes to BETTER.

Today and going forward I want you to erase any thoughts, trace of being bitter, it is not serving you. ACTIONS, MINDSET, THOUGHTS for BETTER

For fitness I invite you to join me on positive actions to level up your fitness Join Bodi . When you join I will be there to support, walk you through and there is a free community if you just need that free positive community on your already fitness journey

Celebrate Your Achievements and Those Around You

Love The Now

Yes, I say praise the greatness in all that you have done and also the greatness of all to the people you surround yourself with. Acknowledge to them your appraisal of them. It is always good to self acknowledge. What that means for you to FIRST and be the FIRST to acknowledge all your accomplishments. It does not matter if they are big or small, ACKNOWLEDGE IT. Nope don’t wait on others.

It is good to acknowledge those close to you. No need to think or compare the standings in life, fitness just let them know “I am proud of you and congrats”. I’ve heard many say things such as “I am not sure how they did it, or how did they get there or I think they had help and…. So what, why are you wasting positive energy to negative thoughts and then that energy can turn on you. I say praise and love. Become one in full support of your greatness and the ones close to you.

Okay now that you’ve thought about it, I need you to go ahead and Praise or Applaud you and then call, text, e-mail someone close to do the same for them.

Forgiveness: Key to Unlocking Your True Potential

But Really Are You Still ….

I just encountered a friend that I am certain if they read this may no longer be a friend well… But Really.

How are you dispersing your energy? How can you say Positive if you are still holding on to anger. How can you STILL be angry with someone that hurt your feelings and didn’t ask for forgiveness or say “I am sorry”.

It is the people we love that hurt us more and in a relationship or friendship can hurt us even more. Unless you are still in contact or interacting with the individual I am asking no I’m begging of you. STOP waiting, stop hanging on I need you to forgive them yourself. Holding on and waiting for years has really ALREADY slowed or decrease you elevating yourself to the next level of your greatness. To allow a negative energy keep invading your healthy, positive space is not good.

How about working out be it lifting, running, jogging, dance, or walking. Meditation is great. Surround yourself with a positive community of people. Smile and just smile again. Wasting too many minutes on waiting and you know it ain’t gonna happen so again forgive them and move on. Or you can listen to my daily community Growth Day to get motivational words to elevate you and there are other learnings available. It is time to stop flashing green to yellow. I think you are a champion GREEN all the way. But just in case click here Growth Day

If you are holding on to any negative ENERGY release it. It takes more out of our day and not a good feeling. You do deserve to feel good. Now go ahead and create a NEW level of POSITIVE LEVEL. and feel good.

Need help on workouts, yep I got you there too Free for 30 days , but hurry because it ends the last day of September 2025

Transform Your Mornings: Self-Love Tips

Where Is The Love For You

Where is your self love ? I know you rise in the AM and do the usual, face washing, dental hygiene, shower or bathing. I’m certain women are doing the moisturizing, serum skin care and everyone is moisturizing their skin with their favorite lotion. You get into your GO routine and yet…..

Yet you forget to breathe take time, even a few moments for yourself. How about a few minutes to meditate ( breathe in for a count of four, then hold for a count of four and slowly release in a count of four). How about stretching, even better how about a workout. You can stream your workouts, no need to continue to use the excuse I don’t have time for the gym. Set the clock and begin a change by rising just 10 minutes early.

Yes, 10 minutes to begin loving yourself that is YOUR TIME. After a week or two you will notice the GREAT difference. In another week or two everyone will notice a difference but they will not be able to point it out. Why? Because that glow you are exhibiting is from feeling good and showing the beginning phase of the LOVE you are giving to you. Your smile and behavior, being positive as well as verbal positive response will be mind blowing and could become contagious to those loving the new you.

All because you are now giving LOVE to you, for you. You are taking action in making you a priority. Yes you are and….

As always I stand on the side line and that’s me, can you hear me; I am cheering you on. That cheer is for the LOVE you now show for yourself.

Thursday Transformation: Let Go of Limiting Beliefs

“A Throw Back But A Toss Out”

The cliche is used as Thursday being a throw back. Let’s do a switch and then you can return to the “throw back”. How about “a toss out”.

Making Thursday a day you toss out all the behavior and actions that no longer serve you. The ones you have been hanging on for years and years that includes those years of fear (because you are still believing in things family, friends and others) have told you to and it is holding you. Holding you back no, but in the hold there is a slow release to your challenge of the fear because you just won’t toss it out.

You know you better than anyone and I bet there is someone that probably knows you pretty close and is encouraging you to toss out the fears and be you. BUT that one or two person(s) is out numbered so you still listen to the fear. Toss it out, how about people that no longer serve you. PLEASE don’t do that but I have said and will reiterate again and again you may want to limit your time with them. You know who you are, who you love (we all love differently), you know your realistic goals just as you know a few of the actions you are using today are toward the goals someone else has placed in front of you. TOSS that out too. It’s time to be YOU.

You’re a CHAMPION, UNIQUE and here I stand again I’m cheering you on for the toss out and for those actions you are or will be applying to honor your title.

Until the next read.
