** TOXIC INDIVIDUALS **

** Toxic People **

Seriously you dont ever have to feel guilty about removing so called (toxic) people from your Life. 

It doesn't matter whether someone is a relative, a romantic interest, an employer, childhood friend, or even a new acquaintance. You don't have to make room for people who cause you pain, or worst make you feel small.

It's one thing if a person owns up to their behavior and makes an effort to change. But if a person disregards your feelings, ignores your boundaries, and yet still continues to treat you in a harmful way, they need to go ! . . . 

It's not selfish to love yourself, or to even take care of yourself & to make your own happiness a Priority. It's actually necessary. Your circle of friends must match your own kinds of aspirations and dreams or even personalities , why? You will find little support when you need it most. As They may disregard something of which you wish to do. (Although !! I stand corrected as you do get a Select few, who no matter what their aspirations same OR different will support you know matter what.) 

Remember focus on the things you can Change and let go of the things you can't. But always !! keep in mind that things will happen to those who work for it!

** Sleeping Patterns ** 

- Have a read, some thought provoking points...-

Listening to Phil Learney's Podcast this Morning and he makes a Superb point in regards to sleep patterns. Too many people DO NOT ensure that they get themselves up at a set time or get into a set sleeping pattern. For example I always wake up at about 5:30-6:00am . What's even more important is because I'm so used to this sleeping pattern (this will happen to others) is that your Body Clock will and should naturally wake up just before that set time (before your Alarm actually goes off) Why? . . . Because your body associates STRESS with the Sound of your Alarm and so wakes itself up about 3-5 minutes prior to it actually going off. 

So why is it at the Weekend we see people Sleeping in or Lying in ? When actually they should still even at the Weekend , wake up at their set time . Why ? Because it's the same theory as with Food. What your actually doing to your Body is 'BINGE SLEEPING' just like how people Binge Eat on Food. They're forcing their body back to sleep into an un-natural pattern of which it is NOT used to. Hence why we feel more groggy afterwards. Even worst what your really doing is making your Body Switch time zones. (from what it's normally used to) You may as well have been on a plane flight from New York to London as basically your giving yourself 'Jet Lag'. 

Better to wake up at your normal time and have a 30 mins Nap in the afternoon then force your body into another time zone off which it will have to try to go back to it's normal sleeping pattern on the Monday again. Have a think about that ? . . . 

- ** What makes a Good Coach/Trainer in a Nutshell ? ** -

I think it's time to tell a lot of people on here and to be fair it's something that many people are afraid to say but it needs to be said. What is good coaching ? . . . 

Is it results ? Maybe . . . 

Is it helping someone achieve their goals ? Maybe . . . 

Is it helping someone realize that they need to change their Mentality and habits towards food ? Maybe again . . . 

The FACT is . A good Coach or Trainer should realize that ' All Results Will Be Different ! ' Why ? . . . Because everyone is different. Everyone is Unique. And because, ' NOT EVERYONE NEEDS THE SAME THING ! ' 

There is NOT one Chosen Correct Method ! And most certainly any Coach should not implement what works for them MUST CLEARLY work for their Client ? NO ! This is Wrong you have to work to THEIR NEEDS ! Being a Trainer should make the individual or client understand more about themselves and learn to understand how THEIR own body works . Ensuring that they soon become at Peace with their own Bodies. That IS REAL COACHING / TRAINING !

Not the one's who put pressure on Clients to feel like they MUST PERFORM a set * DIET or TRAINING in order to make them feel like some sort of Circus Animal, for the sole purpose of before and after photo's . They should be able to maintain and slowly develop their own Physique, understanding how, why, and what effects their own Body creating a longer / lasting / and overall more Confident Individual who is Confident for who they are, and not trying to be someone else for who they are not ! FACT ! 

Stop Striving to be EXACTLY as someone else ! You are NOT THEM ! try to be the BEST YOU CAN BE ! That's Good Coaching ! That's Good Training ! Your Fix starts with Mentality 1st ! The rest all fits / slots into place . . .
