Why health and fitness...why now??





As Beachbody coaches, we talk a lot about our "Why."  Why did we decide to become a coach?  Why are you a coach now?  Why is it important that we succeed?  Why this business versus another network marketing company?  These are important questions because our "why" helps determine how successful we will be. Without a strong why, we wouldn't have the drive to keep going.  It's our why in life that drives us in everything we do.  Why do you get up in the morning?  Why do you go to work everyday?  Why do you go to church every Sunday?  Why do you volunteer at your kids school? Why?

Our whys can change just as our lives can.  The reason I became a BeachBody coach is not exactly the same reason that drives me now.  I became a coach because I wanted the accountability for myself.  I loved being a part of a challenge group.  It helped keep me motivated and on course.  I wanted to run my own challenge groups to help others do the same. I chose health and fitness because I'm passionate about it.   I didn't think I would earn an income from it.  I had no idea how much I would enjoy it.  I never realized that it would change me in so many different ways.  I didn't know it would make me want to be better in all areas of my life.  I didn't know the drive for success, that it would ignite in me.  But it has done all of these things. 
I have been a stay at home mom for over 12 years now.  I wouldn't trade it for the world!  I love that I have never missed a first step, or first word or any other firsts.  I love playdates and meeting other stay at home moms!  I love that I get to volunteer at the kids school and go on field trips!  I realize that this is a luxury that not all moms get or maybe even want.  We are all different and different is good.  But as moms, working or not, we all make sacrifices, and at some point we question the decisions we make.  As a stay at home mom, especially in the early years, my husband and I sacrificed a lot!  It is not always easy to live off of one income and there were many, many times that I felt so much guilt because I wasn't contributing to our family's finances.  I was always looking for a way to save money or make an extra few dollars here or there without giving up the time with my kids.  I have no regrets about staying home!  My point is that it's not always easy.

The point of this little story is that I have found a way to contribute to my family financially.  I have found something that I'm passionate about!  I have found something that allows me to help others!  I have found my "why!"  I will succeed in this business so that I can give back to my husband all the things that he sacrificed for our family!  Not because he's ever complained, because he certainly hasn't.  But because he has worked so hard to support us the last 13 years and has given up so much for our family.  It's time for me to give back to him!  My husband and my family are my "why."

This "why", coupled with my passion to help others get healthy, is what drives me everyday and keeps me going strong! 

I want to share my passion with YOU!  I want to help YOU make your why come true!  We often get signs in life.... HERE IS YOURS!  DON'T INGNORE IT!
