Small But Consistent
Steps Of Action - Step 5 of 6
I'm sure you've heard of the saying
that actions speak louder than words.
Knowledge and words alone won't get you
any rapid and permanent fat loss results
if you don't take action.
It's easy to talk about what you're
going to do in order to lose fat and feel
better about yourself, but it often seems more
difficult to actually do something about it.
Sound familiar?
But trust me, taking action is only
as difficult as you make it!
After activating those new and
empowering decisions, I'm sure you're now aware
that there's more actions you'll need to perform
on an everyday basis.
Yes, this will take more personal
effort, but if you don't take the necessary
action that's needed now, it will take far
greater effort in the future to start living a
healthier lifestyle and to deal with the painful
consequences that follow.
So, don't get overwhelmed by
looking at all the work that needs to get done.
Instead, I encourage you to focus
on taking everything 1 day at a time or shall I
say, 1 step at a time!
By taking small but consistent steps of
action on a daily basis, you'll succeed in
adopting all 10 "Insider" Secret
Habits of Action.
A Tip From Rich: To participate in
this step-by-step component of my psycho
fat loss program, simply print off the
following assignment and question then write
down your answer, or create a text file and type
it out as you go.
Your Goal For Step 5: To learn how
to improve your chances of taking the right
steps of action on a consistent basis so you can
achieve rapid and permanent fat loss results!
There are 2 main reasons that
people use to justify the fact that they aren't
taking the action that's needed in order to
realize the great physical and mental results
that they want to experience.
Let me re-phrase that:
There are 2 preventable and potentially DEVASTATING reasons...!
The first one is called procrastination.
When people procrastinate they
normally have a list of excuses as to why they
aren't acting in a productive manner.
They feel that those excuses are
legitimate and try to live guilt free.
Maybe they are legitimate excuses, yet
they are still excuses!
From the way I see it, the only way
a person can't start to take small but
consistent steps of action in order to work
towards their rapid and permanent fat loss
results is if they're in a grave!
We all have the same amount of time
in a day and it's up to us in terms of how we
use that time.
There are no dress rehearsals in life, so
we should all strive to use our time as wisely
as possible.
The 2nd preventable and potentially
devastating reason is called giving up.
By giving up there is absolutely no hope for a person to
realize their fitness goals and the only thing
that they can do from there is to dream about
what could've been and deal with the regret and
painful consequences to follow.
It's obvious that you haven't given
up since you're reading these words right now. Therefore, we'll focus on the main excuses people use to
cover up procrastination.
Question 1: Identify all of the
excuses you've used in the past and present to
avoid taking the appropriate steps of action so
you can work towards rapid and permanent fat
loss results.
Below, you'll see the top 3 reasons to
write up to 3 related excuses under.
Remember, that these excuses are all a form of the 1st
preventable and potentially devastating reason
known as procrastination.
Afterwards, I'd like to know how you were
affected by using those excuses instead of
working towards your goals.
Lastly, I'll provide a few tips that will
help you to eliminate each excuse.
Excuses related to time
Example of an excuse related to
time: I told myself in the past that I didn't
have the time to exercise.
With the kids, work and my other
responsibilities it seemed impossible to take
the time to look after myself.
Excuse 1:
Excuse 2:
Excuse 3:
How I was and will continue to be
affected from using those excuses:
Example of how I was and will
continue to be affected from using that excuse:
By using that time related excuse I missed out
on 2 years of my life when I could've been
healthier while looking and feeling better about
myself. If
I continue to use that excuse, then I'll gain
more body fat and lose more energy as a result.

Tips from Rich on how to drop your
excuses related to time
Tip 1:
Ask yourself how you can afford NOT
to have the time!
Making the time to exercise should be
near the top on your list of priorities since
your body is your most precious possession.
It's a possession that you'll never be
able to replace. By taking the appropriate action steps to improve your health
and lose fat, you'll gain more energy and will
become more efficient in the day, and as a
result, getting more done!
Tip 2:
Look at your calendar and block off
all the times when you're booked up with usual
responsibilities.
Fit in 3, 20 minute time slots for your
Flex-for-Shape and Cardio-Burn workouts that are
found inside my psycho
fat loss program, on
alternate days of the week, or even on the same
days if you wish.
If you can't find the time for exercise
then you'll need to cancel something else out
that isn't as high of a priority.
Also, I'd encourage you to workout in the
comfort of your own home, since this is more
convenient than training at a gym.
Make sure to use the success journal
that's also found inside my psycho
fat loss program to
schedule in your workouts ahead of time so
you'll have the peace of mind knowing that you
already fit them into your schedule.
Excuses Related to Money
Example of an excuse related to
money: Currently, I don't have much money to buy a gym
membership and the food I need in order to lose fat. I
can't look after myself since I need to look
after my family first.
Excuse 1:
Excuse 2:
Excuse 3:
How I was and will continue to be
affected from using those excuses
Example of how I was and will
continue to be affected from using that excuse:
By using that excuse I now can't fit into my
good clothes that I used to wear. If I continue to blame my lack of activity and proper
nutrition on my lack of funds, then I'll gain
more fat and won't feel as good about myself.
Not only that but I won't have the energy
needed to deal with my family.

Tips from Rich on how to drop your
excuses related to money
Tip 1:
If you can't afford to purchase a
gym membership that costs roughly $25 to $45 a
month, then I suggest looking for ways to fit it
into your budget.
Also, this applies to you if you're
looking to purchase in-home workout equipment.
Simply think of all the ways in which you
can save money during the month.
You can cut down on going out to eat,
coffees, smoking etc.
Keep cutting out unnecessary expenses
until you can afford to use the tools that you
need in order to achieve your fitness goals.
As far as eating the right food goes,
this shouldn't be a problem for you financially
since good food doesn't cost more than unhealthy
food and you can always cut coupons!
Tip 2:
If you're truly living on a
shoestring budget then I encourage you to invest
in a reasonably priced set of free weights, a
bench and a stability ball that should have a
one-time cost of $200, or less.
This way you won't need to buy a gym
membership or more expensive in-home workout
equipment and can still take the action that's
needed in order to get great results from using
my psycho
fat loss program.
Excuses Related to a Lack of Energy
Example of an excuse related to a
lack of energy: At this time in my life I don't
have the energy to exercise, due to my hectic
work schedule.
Excuse 1:
Excuse 2:
Excuse 3:
How I was and will continue to be
affected from using those excuses
Example of how I was and will
continue to be affected from using that excuse:
By using that lack of energy excuse I haven't
gained energy in the day and it's only got
worse. If
I continue to use that excuse then I fear that
I'll become heavier and my performance will
suffer as a result.

Tips from Rich on how to drop your
excuses related to a lack of energy
Tip 1:
If you have a lack of energy, then
realize that there's a reason for that.
Could it be possible that you have low
energy due to the fact that there's not enough
activity in your life?
Yes, a more active body is a more
energetic one.
The new activities that your body isn't
used to, force you to become stronger and more
fit. Everyday
activities become easier as a result.
Tip 2:
Follow the Nutri-Sizzle plan that's
coming up inside the physical factor of my psycho
fat loss program to fuel your new and
active lifestyle.
The extra nutrients and the more
efficient way of eating will provide you with
the extra energy needed to complete your
exercise sessions and the day with ease.
Great job!
Hopefully you've now decided to
eliminate any excuses that you've been using to
avoid exercise and healthy eating.
After standing up to your own excuses and
dismissing them you're now free to take the
small but consistent steps of action that lead
to rapid and permanent fat loss results!
How
can you ensure that you’ll continue to take the correct steps of action
on a regular basis? The
answers lie in the 6th step, which will help you to...
