Keeping our Mental Dialog in Check - Part 2
Now that you’ve completed your own mental dialogue inventory you can see the actual thoughts and feelings out of those 60,000 – 80,000 per day which are specifically focused on exercise.
You now have conscious awareness of those thoughts and emotion force fields that control your decision making to exercise or not.
How strong are your emotions and what is the length of your list on the “Moving Towards” side versus the “Moving Away From” side.
If your Moving Away From side has greater than 50% of size (list length) and emotional strength as compared to the Moving Towards side then the chances are this is going to be pushing you towards the gutter or to hit only a couple pins at best.
If your Moving Towards side is greater than 50% list length and emotional strength than you’ve already got a strong foundation in which to propel you into action with the alignment to knock down many pins.
Although, with your mental fitness as is also true with your physical fitness - you’re never really done!
It does get much much easier to stay fit once you become fit but it’s a life long journey that comes down to the 99% objective of personally shaping your own mental dialogue so that fitness actions happen with ease and really becomes part of your life you are aligned with, attracted to, and even as far as falling in love with the process and its affects.
So, How do we improve our mental dialogue regardless of where it is now and keep it in check for obtaining desired results and keeping those results
(Warning: If applied the next 5 steps are likely to forever improve your physical fitness!
Becoming super aware of our Pain and Pleasure attached to this area of our life is the first step and you’ve already completed that 😀
Realize a cold hard fact that none of us humans are escaping from: We all have inherited gene predisposition to produce pathologies (moderate – severe disease and sickness conditions, chronic illnesses).
These genes are heavily sensitized by physical inactivity (Not exercising or not being physically active enough) and activated when in combination with other poor health risk factors (such as emotional stress, work stress, poor diet, obesity, pollution, toxins, smoking, alcohol, etc.).
The reverse is also true – every time you exercise your muscles literally send messages to all parts of your body to improve things like producing energy, killing cancer cells, improving your sleep, elevating your mood, and increasing your brain power just to name a few.
This means that just from your decision making to exercise regularly or not you can either increase your chances of sickness, disease, and shortened lifespan or you can choose to have a well functioning body, mind, and improved quality of life.
If there was anything from step 2 that you could emotionally attach to your Moving Towards side of your mental dialogue add it to the appropriate section of your inventory.
