Back to School, Back to YOU - Mindset part two

Back to school, back to YOU!

You’ve probably heard, “attitude of gratitude,” which is great! Being grateful can totally revitalize your mindset - and day.


I want to shift perspective here, though - because a lot of our goals make us feel like we “get less” on the way to achieving them. Better job? Less free time! Weight loss? Less delicious desserts! New car? Less Starbucks!


Abundance thinking is an intentional focus on PLENTY. While a “gratitude attitude” might say, “I’m grateful I have food to eat” when one is upset about diet restrictions that go hand in hand with fat loss, abundance thinking is an intentional reply to the “less” mindset that leads to failure.


Here’s how to “rewrite” this thought - and rewire your brain for success:

FAILURE MINDSET: “I can’t have those brownies because I’m doing a fitness challenge!”


ABUNDANCE THINKING: “I can have such a delicious variety of fruits and vegetables during this challenge!”


BONUS ROUND: To really set this mindset shift in stone, act on your abundance thinking. 


In the example above, you could head over to our local farmer’s market on Saturday (ideally after you've hit a workout class at Results!) and splurge on decadent organic peaches that wake up your taste buds with their tart-sweet nectar. 


Forget about the brownie - you’ve got ripe plums, roasted brussel sprouts, artichoke hearts, crisp watermelon and asparagus spears to enjoy!


When we think about all we HAVE, and CAN HAVE, we’re focused on bringing more good - and success - to our lives. So turn that frown upside down and think abundantly!
