Thank you so much for sharing Jason! This is so true! Especially in the fitness and nutrition world there is always advertising going on for that next life changing program, the magic pill or the potion that you can take and be on your way to tremendous results without as much as a minimal real effort on your end to watch what you eat or how much you move. Same does apply to those get rich quick schemes.

But I guess we know better that there is always effort and work involved if you want to get lasting results you can enjoy for the rest of your life. And the key words are the gradual changes, not something as dramatic as overnight success,

There was always something new when it came to fitness, nutrition, and professional growth that guaranteed results way quicker and with less effort than I knew was actually possible but it was so shiny and I couldn’t help but be drawn to it……What’s that saying?….”If it looks too good to be true….” Looking back, these fads where setting me up for failure before I even started and it’s no wonder why I would lose interest after the novelty wore off. Years ago I made a commitment to change my lifestyle. Rather than focus on fads that come and go with the promise of dramatic change, I focused on smaller, more gradual change over the long term. I learned the benefits of hard work and persistence as the best way for me to gain real results and avoid the dreaded SOS.

Hi Melissa, it’s funny that you ask :). Actually my New Year Resolution for 2017 was to start this very blog, which I have continued so far thanks to all the readers.
