Tony Robbins is one of the worlds leading motivational speakers. His book “Unlimited Power” was a critical part of me starting my own weight loss journey.
I attribute my past successes in both fat loss and muscle building to my unstoppable mindset. I set big goals and mission statements, I visualize, I adopt positive beliefs and attitudes, I incorporate support, accountability, and I find role models and mentors to help me along the way. All of these things have motivated the heck out of me in the past. Now I’ve discovered something that has ignited a flame under my butt and has taken my motivation to entirely new level.

Ida Wasserman just celebrated her 100th birthday and she’s heading to the gym. From a walker to walking by herself, Ida shows that it’s never too late to start exercising.
Ida’s favorite cardio equipment is the rowing machine which reminds her of rowing in Central Park with her late husband.
Her advice to seniors is
keep active because once you stop being active, you’re no longer much of a person
I might ask that you use Ida as inspiration to continue your own workouts with vigor, or begin exercising. If she can do it, you can do it.

One of the most powerful lessons I learned years ago when I was starting my weight loss transformation, was from Anthony Robbins’ book Unlimited Power. In it I learned of the principle CANI, or Constant And Neverending Improvement. I became a student of small improvements compounded upon one another and knew that I’d never stop growing.
My mentor T. Harv Eker has a phrase, “if you’re not growing, you’re dying”.
Success and Improvement are not destinations, they should be thought of as journey’s.
I’ve recently met a few people in my weight loss forum who have taken on a personal attitude of success and simply will not let anyone or anything stand in their way of getting the results they desire.
It’s like a switch was flipped.
