Twitter topic of the day: Do you blame others for not getting your diet & exercise done?

This post is my twitter daily tips / topic of the day. Follow me on Twitter @ezhomefitness

My #questionoftheday is do you use others as your scapegoats & excuses for not getting your diet & exercise done?

You have to learn to hold yourself accountable to whether you succeed or fail with your diet & exercise program. Stop blaming others! Too many people look for scapegoats to blame for their not dieting properly or going off their diet & also for not exercising. There are exceptions but the exceptions are far & few between. If the will is there then so will be the progress. Time is certainly a factor, so is your job, your responsibilities too but it still all is up to YOU and only YOU whether you succeed or not. Diet & exercise for a lot of people is something totally new so you have to change past behaviors that only got you into your current state. Instead of blaming people for your failures, try including them on your new diet & exercise program. Your scapegoats can become your greatest allies in your diet & execise journey. If they can't or won't help, look for someone who will help! You have to make that choice to look for help instead of excuses! Excuses will get you nowhere. You have to change that mindset. That excuse making mindset has gotten you to this place in your life. It did nothing for you. Time to trash it and begin anew. Just as you look to change your body & health with a new diet & exercise program, so you must look to change your past mindset & behaviors. I know this is easier said than done. Old habits die hard but you created them, you can create new better ones in their place! The question is will you? How badly do you want to change yourself? It's all within you to do. You can do it. Make up your mind that u will.
