Take Charge Value yourself. If you only do one thing then ensure its to improve yourself, maybe start on that programme to get your body in shape. When you genuinely value and respect yourself, others around you do the same. Start by thinking of all of the good and valuable things about yourself. Think of all the wonderful things you’re good at all the things that give you peace of mind etc. Knowing that you have your own unique strengths and talents makes it so much easier to value yourself but working on those attractive strengths is also something to value.

    • If you’re feeling down maybe it’s because of the way you see your body in the mirror and you’re having trouble finding value in yourself, try this. Take a piece of paper and draw a vertical line down the middle. At the top of one side, write “positives”, and at the top of the other, write “in progress”. Begin to write your positive and in progress attributes in the appropriate columns. For each “in progress” you write, try to write 2 “positives”. When you’ve filled your “positives” column, stop and review your list. Your positive qualities should be bigger than your in progress ones. Now with you in progress attributes make a definite date to turn these around so that in 12 weeks they are in the positives.

Take Charge Become Physically Active. The way you treat your body can have a dramatic and noticeable effect on the way you view yourself emotionally. Exercise has been proven time and time again to release endorphins in the brain which will help you feel inspirational. Regularly devoting some time to your fitness will help you feel more relaxed, confident, and with more energy to want to do more and influence others in doing so., We all know exercise is the best thing for combatting our struggling weight issues so it makes sense to improve our fitness and overcome the issues you have with your body. These proven qualities make exercise a leading option for you and ensure you make that lifestyle change.

    • You don’t have to have a body like a professional athlete to be happy with yourself. Everyone’s fitness needs are different, I recommend that adults should aim for about 1 1/2 hours – 2 1/2 hours of cardio exercise per week (depending on its intensity) in addition to strength-training exercise on two or more days each week or combining both cardio and strength exercise for 20 -30 minutes 4-5 days per week to achieve fantastic body transforming results.
