THE PSYCHOLOGICAL JOURNEY OF FITNESS

THE JOURNEY IS THE REWARD
 
STAGE-1
The very first thing includes the decision to improve ourselves. In this stage we make a decision to improve our self and attain a fit and healthy body.It is just a thought, which may have flashed in our mind for just a few seconds but has the tendency to change our entire life. Now, once we have entered a fitness program, it takes at least a month  for us to make it a part of our daily routine, a habit and a necessity.In this stage every thing we do is an experiment. All we need is to stay motivated and have patience.

STAGE-2
Expecting more than what is real, is a basic human nature. This is the reason, why the second stage is the stage of doubts. We expect unrealistic changes in our body and set unrealistic goals.We are in a hurry to loose weight and see the results, but we need to understand that fitness is a way of life, not a matter of two-three months! Doubts are a part of this journey and overcoming these is something that keeps us going.

STAGE-3
Conquering our fears and doubts is one of the greatest achievements of our life.This is what  the third stage is all about. In this stage we strike a balance between our mind and body, we train both ,our mind as well as our body, when we try to achieve something again and again without bothering much about the failure. During this whole process, we find ourselves turning out to be stronger and more positive towards our goal. The feeling of excitement reaches a new level!

STAGE-4
Transformation! yes, the fourth stage is when you realize that your body and mind, i.e. your personality has changed completely! Finally you got what you always wished for.Now, is the time when you make them regret the day they called you unhealthy. You will now be a role model for someone,who is gonna someday turn up to you and say " because of you, i was able to do it". This is that feeling...the feeling of ultimate satisfaction!

STAGE-5
Remember! Fitness is a journey... so it doesn't end up in the fourth stage, there is lots more! Now, its time for you to discover more...
