New Years Resolutions
by: Bob Osgoodby

Getting in shape and losing weight has been the most popular New Years Resolution since they invented the calendar. The busiest month for new memberships in any health club is always January. If you page through any newspaper during the holiday season, you are bound to see several advertisements which capitalize on the New Years Resolution obsession.

Sad Fact: 84% of the people who make this promise never follow through!

Why?

Because the majority of the people that make this promise have not truly made the decision to get in shape.

Making The Decision

It took me over nine years to finally make the decision. At my heaviest, I weighed 293 lbs. I must have told my wife 500 times, "I'm going to get in shape, I'll start on Monday". Well, 500 Mondays came and went, I did absolutely nothing, and I was still as big as a house! I finally made the decision standing naked in front of the bathroom mirror. It was a scary sight. I couldn't believe how fat I was! When I was young, I was always in great shape. After I got married I started working 70 hours a week, didn't find time to exercise, ate the wrong foods, drank too much beer, and over a nine year period of time, gained about 100 lbs.!

I was sick and tired of the way I looked and felt, and the negative effects that being obese was having on my life. Simple everyday things like tying my shoes or climbing a flight of stairs, were suddenly a challenge.

Getting in shape has a positive ripple effect into every aspect of your life. When you look better, you feel better about yourself. Your self-esteem and sense of dignity improve, your relationships improve, you will have more energy and motivation than you know what to do with. Most importantly, your health returns and your quality of life improves. There is nothing more important than your health: ignore it, and it will go away.

Do you want to get in shape, or do you need to get in shape. There is a big difference. You have to need to get in shape. It has to be your #1 priority. Get obsessed!

Who are the most important people in your life? Imagine that they are kidnapped, and the ransom note addressed to you reads, "You have 6 months to get in shape, and if you don't, you'll never see them again!"

If you knew you were locked in a room with only 20 minutes of oxygen left, you wouldn't walk over, try the door once and then give up. They'd find me slumped over in front of the door with no finger nails left!

It's amazing the feats you can accomplish if you need to. Do you want to get in shape, or do you need to?
