<\/a>So what is your commitment level like?<\/strong> How can you create the urgency to fix your biggest toleration and take steps to be rid of it?\u00a0<\/p>\nI had to dig deep into Why did I want to be healthy?<\/strong><\/p>\nI wrote it out and the repercussions I could face if I didn\u2019t do it.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s my list:<\/p>\n
\n- I want to have energy when I wake up<\/strong> and not feel \u201cold\u201d when I have to work out my kinks and aches by stretching<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- I want to lose weight so I fit better in my clothe<\/strong>s and lower my BMI rating to be in the healthy range<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- I want to take long walks and not be breathless<\/strong> and sore afterwards<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- I want to have a successful career<\/strong> including making lots of money<\/strong> and traveling to new places<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- I want to live a long life<\/strong> and enjoy being with my family<\/strong> in my retirement years in health not in sickness<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- I am at a much higher risk of getting sick<\/strong> staying where I am and\/or continuing to gain weight<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- I had a pre-cancerous polyp two years ago that was removed, I don\u2019t want to get Cancer<\/strong> and go through the treatment process of chemo and all the difficulty that will bring myself\u00a0 and my family<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
To create the urgency I keep my \u2018Why\u2019 list right in front of me in my office and review it daily so I don\u2019t lose focus on what it is I want.<\/p>\n
I have also created boundaries for myself, I use the 80\/20 rule<\/strong> and don\u2019t cheat during my 80% time! I also schedule my exercise<\/strong> into my day just like I do with all the other important things I do in my day.<\/p>\nCreating new habits takes a strong commitment<\/strong> <\/span>so you need to want to change it! Ask yourself honestly what your commitment level is on a 1-10 scale for your business?<\/p>\nIf you say a 10 then that means you will do Whatever It Takes<\/strong> to make it happen.<\/p>\nIf it\u2019s a 5 then ask yourself why it\u2019s so low? These exercises take digging deep and being honest with your answers. \u00a0<\/p>\n
Remember, your conscious mind is listening and will try to bring you back to the comfort level you have grown into.<\/strong><\/p>\nYour Why is what you must focus on<\/strong> to rid yourself of the tolerations in your life.<\/p>\nWhen you are not consciously rejecting something you are sub-consciously accepting it!<\/p>\n
We would love to hear what your tolerations are and how you plan to fix them by committing to the changes necessary. Let\u2019s all live the life we want! Not the toleration life!<\/p>\n

<\/a>I know when I did mine they didn\u2019t come too easily but when I really thought about it more came to mind. Then during the days after I had so many I was genuinely shocked and angry with myself at how many things I was tolerating!<\/p>\n
