Sunday Story…You Can’t Out Exercise a Bad Diet

You have heard me say this dozens of times. It is the old saying…Garbage in, Garbage out. If you fuel your body with calorie rich and pathetic food your performance will suffer, your results will be stymied, and your waistline won’t be shrinking.

Eating unhealthy food is easy. It’s readily available and relatively cheap. Making healthy healthful choices requires more thought and more effort and more consistency but it is worth it to see the results you love.

The same principle holds true in other places of your life as well.

You can’t expect to have a positive outlook on life if you barrage your mind with negative stories.
You can’t have great relationships if you treat people with criticism, condemnation, and complaints.
You can’t have a successful organization founded on lying, cheating, and stealing.

Doing the things required to have healthy relationships, successful businesses, great mindsets, or amazing fitness is work. They require consistent attention to detail. You can’t just put a plant in the ground and expect it to flourish without some attention. Your life is like that…treat it like it’s in a drought, ravaged by fire, or neglected and it will be a struggle.
Feed your mind positivity, feed your body with healthy food and exercise, nurture your relationships with commitment, communication, and care, support organizations that light up the world and do it consistently. Daily practice will result in amazing results.

You know all of this, there is no magic pill…just sustained, careful, well planned and positive efforts. Overnight success only exists in mythology…real-world results take time and effort.
