Don’t Let Your Self Doubt Make You Lose Your Goals! - insidefitnessmag.com

2020, just as the pandemic hit, I made one of the scariest decisions of my life! I stepped away from the gym atmosphere I had been training and teaching at for 10 + years to build my own brand! It was something I think subconsciously I’ve always wanted to do, but when the gyms shut down, that gave me a little nudge to dive in.

I was terrified; I felt so insecure. What if this didn’t work out for me? Am I making a huge mistake? Can I really do this? What if I fail? These were just some limiting beliefs I had swirling around in my head. Yet, as scary as it was, it was the best decision of my life. I am my own boss! I had a vision, and I brought it to life!

From the ground up, I build a 12 Week Transformation Program that is accessible to anyone and everyone around the globe… literally!! I work with some of the best coaches; I am truly blessed to be doing what I do.

Sometimes those limiting beliefs come back though, and I’ve been told they always will in the life of an entrepreneur! It’s a terrifying feeling that these thoughts can be so powerful that they will come true if you allow it. Things like:

“People don't care about what I have to say...”
“No one wants my program...”
“I can't do this anymore...”
“I'm tired...”

Again, just thoughts. Here’s the trick you have to know, though: Those thoughts can easily be turned around and by positive action; we don't have to let this get in the way of our true potential! Some things that help me keep my vision clear have been:

  1. Self Care - My workouts, eating right, sleeping, and taking care of my body!
  2. Mindset- practicing gratitude, journaling, and surrounding myself with like-minded, goal-driven people!
  3. Following a plan of action- a support group, a coach needs a coach!


Maybe you can relate this scenario to something in your life too. It's scary and hard as hell but try to remember why you started in the first place, and things will align as they should again! That's when you are rewarded for all your efforts!!
