“You could ask for CLARITY” – a spiritual counselor once suggested when I couldn’t figure out the next step in my life.
Fast forward 30+ years and CLARITY, the quality of being coherent, intelligible, clear, lucid and unobstructed, still shows the way.
We specifically can apply CLARITY to health and fitness goals which elude us.
A booster call for CLARITY can be found in sentences below from the book, Willpower doesn’t work, Discover the Hidden Keys to Success, by Benjamin Hardy.
“You need to have enough clarity to have high motivation to move forward. The more clarity you have of the path set before you, the more motivated you’ll be to go down that path.“
Motivation, the force for getting it done, is found in CLARITY itself!
CLARITY pulls us toward what we want.
CLARITY removes the “should” from that which we tell ourselves about health and fitness goals.
The work is not to be found in certain exercises or food choices. That comes later.
The effort first is in asking ourselves “Why” – over and over – even going through the stage of “I don’t want this after all.”
Finally murkiness will settle and mind/body will have compelling CLARITY about what we want.
Then keep looking at it. There is a Bible verse that says “By beholding we become changed.”
CLARITY works. Sixty-five pounds ago I pasted a photo of my face onto the magazine picture of a fitness physique model.
Thirty years ago when running slow and cumbersome early in the morning before work, I “saw” the benefit was not only for that day – but for the exuberant quality of life waiting for me way years ahead. WF!
