Keep your eye on the ball. Good things come to those who wait. Patience is a virtue. We're betting you've heard these canned phrases before, especially when it comes to your health and lifestyle goals.
And still, so many people get derailed by the draw of instant gratification. Making the easy choice. Sticking with what's comfortable. What makes the undertaking of long term success so dang hard? How can we shift our outlook to have faith in the value of future fulfillment over the short term comforts that threaten to pull us off course? Join us as we examine the seduction of immediacy and inspire renewed confidence in your ability to commit to your long term goals.
