Visual Motivator
They say “you have to see it to believe it”. So what’s your motivation? Why do you care so much about healthy cooking or fitness?
I read a post on this topic and relized two things:
- my primary motivator is clothing – a black tone-on-tone pinstripe suit to be exact.
- having Steve as my accountability partner is awesome – he doesn’t judge me but asks plainly whether I’ve worked out or not and before I recognized the issues with my eating habits, he would do things like quietly suggest I move away from the food or ask how many appetizers I had eaten already (I admit it’s a weakness). Sometimes I took it as judgement and was offended but I know now that it was a sign of his caring and a gentle push to get back inline with my goals because I had lost sight of them.
Oddly enough, he thinks I look uncomfortable in fancy clothes (so this may be a conflicted goal) but I appreciate his daily encouragement and am thankful to have someone who loves me so much 🙂
