NFPT - Update

So how is school going? Do you want the truth or something sugar coated? It hasn't been smooth the last two or three weeks. It's not the fault of the program, let me say that right off the top. It's me. Doing an online school for sure has it's tough moments for me as I don't have to show up to class with an assignment finished or I get scolded by the teacher. It's all up to me.

Most of us who choose to do an at-home study program, do so because our schedules are so full we can't possibly fit in the actual time of classes. So we opt for something we can fit around our personal lives. But what do you do when your personal life (work, church, family, fitness) keep getting in the way of that moment alone with your workbook? You make a decision to do it anyway.

What's different about NFPT? The fact they care if you succeed or not. I have received emails asking me how things are going. They kindly remind me not to stress and slow down if I have to, to get other things done. Behind NFPT are people who really care.

Organization Tip: Making a list of life's priorities is a good way to stay on top of everyday chores and fitness goals. I have now laid out a plan for which night I study, which night I blog, and a few nights for other things as well. Part of your success is not just to lose the weight, but to stay organized and on top of things before you slip into your old ways of eating fast food on the run.

With each thing you do in life, the ultimate result shows in your physical appearance. Are you taking care of yourself or not? Are you eating properly, sleeping adequate hours, and freeing your mind of stress. Take a moment this weekend to sit with an old fashion pad of paper and pen and re-organize what you are doing. I did and it's already helping.
