✨Do you INSIST on doing something...even if it hasn’t gotten you the results you want?⁣ ⁣ 👉🎙Swipe to listen!⁣ ⁣ Here are two very tangible and frequent examples:⁣ ⁣ 1️⃣“Counting calories gives me a sense of control.” ⁣ ⁣ ...Even if they aren’t as lean as they’d like and feel stressed about “not screwing up” at each meal. ⁣ ⁣ These perceived feelings of control don’t automatically equate to achieving the goal.⁣ ⁣ 2️⃣“I need to workout for X amount of time and just want to sweat in workouts or it doesn’t count.” ⁣ ⁣ ...A common thing a diehard cardio lover may say even if their joints hurt, hormones are thrown off, and they can’t seem to reshape their body in the way that they want. ⁣ ⁣ There’s nothing wrong with having preferences and certainly there are lots of things that can work (for a short period of time). ⁣ ⁣ However, if you’re sticking to your guns with a certain philosophy and you’re not getting the results you want and/or you hate it and/or it’s driving you insane... Perhaps it’s time for a new approach.⁣ ⁣ You are the only master of your body. ⁣ Not a calculator. ⁣ Not the clock. ⁣ Nothing and no one else.⁣ ⁣ If you insist on doing things a certain way, how is that working for you?⁣ ⁣ 💛It’s ok to not have it mastered yet. It takes practice, but allow yourself the time and space to understand the intentions behind why you do what you do.⁣ #thedailykelsey⁣ ⁣ P.S. Crazy hair don’t care.
