Muscle Building Goals: Stay in the moment

At this particular moment, you’re doing one thing at the expense of something else.

If you’re in the process of setting goals related to muscle building, then the previous sentence is an important one to consider. What do I mean by this? Simply put, building a muscular physique will take great dedication and commitment, and it will almost always require sacrifices along the way. If you really stop and think about this before you begin working on your goals, you’ll already know what obstacles to expect along the way. When you reach these obstacles, you’ll be prepared to overcome them because you’ve already done so in your mind.

So what does it mean that one thing will always be at the expense of something else? Examine your current lifestyle and ask yourself what you would have to give up to accomplish your muscle building goal. After you determine that, ask yourself if you’re willing to give these things up. Would you give up an hour of TV every day to begin strength training? Would you give up on fast food to prevent gaining fat? Are you too lazy to get up earlier each morning and force yourself to have breakfast? The real question here is –are you willing to make the commitment on a daily basis to overcome your obstacles and achieve your goals?

It wasn’t until I asked myself that critical question that I made serious headway in achieving my goals. Here is that critical question: Are you prepared to work diligently towards these goals? If so, what are you willing to give up in exchange for these objectives?
