4 Steps to Nix Negativity!

Hold your head high & do the RIGHT thing!

There’s no room for negativity in my life! I have been told that I am annoyingly positive.... well THANK YOU!  Attitudes are contagious, and I work hard to surround myself only with people that lift me up. You ARE who you SURROUND yourself with... right? You must protect your positive attitude, as negativity will only detract from your destination... and no one wants that!  Do you have negative people in your life? Well, I have four tips to help you deal with negativity and stay focused on the positive.

 FIRST you have to know that it is not your responsibility to make another person happy. I have been learning this more and more through my time with personal development. Negativity comes from those who are unhappy with themselves or their own circumstances. However, it might be directed at you because you have triggered something in them… For instance, your success may trigger negativity from a less successful friend, a spouse in poor health might express negativity toward your new healthy habits, or a coworker might nitpick at you because of their feelings about their own unmet potential. These are their problems, not yours.

But there are ways to deal with these people without letting it affect your own positive attitude…and you may even encourage them to be more positive themselves! While some people recommend simply ignoring negativity, here’s what works for me…

4 Steps to Nix Negativity

1. Respond in Kindness.
Always respond in kindness and with love in your heart. Don’t match negative with more negative. Be kind. You can have empathy for their situation or what they might be feeling, but also know it’s their “issue” not yours.

2. Respond with a Smile or “Thank You.”
If someone has a negative comment to make, just smile, or reply with a “thank you” to put an end to the conversation. Disputing or arguing with them only heightens negativity. Remember, while you might not be able to change the person’s attitude, your reaction is the one thing you can control.

3. Let it Go.
Hanging on to a person’s negative remarks or the jabs they’ve taken only gives their negativity more energy and brings you down. You must decide to let it go.

4. Ignore it.
Finally, when all else fails, just ignore it. Sometimes a positive response just won’t do the trick. And in those situations, you must simply ignore it. Don’t let it the negativity affect you. Remind yourself that it’s not your issue, let go of whatever was said, and move forward. Stay focused on the positive and do your best to surround yourself with more people that fuel that positivity.

There is FAR too much in life we have to be thankful for!
DIG DEEP & be the person you want to be!

Bombshell Dynasty 14 Day Clean Eating Challenge

When of my friends messaged me on Facebook talking to me about some recent news her doctor have given her, she was diagnosed PCOS. She knew from that moment she had to change her lifestyle. I began to do some research on PCOS and treating it with diet and exercise and some of the stories I read were amazing. I know many of us struggle with nutriton and it's hard when we are surrounded by commercials 24/7 of high calorie, high fat foods! Even if you were exercising 1-2 hours a day and not watching your diet, lets face it you are not going to see as much results as you would with a healthy sustainable diet! I think that the hardest part of any journey is the first step. So I am working on putting together a 2 week, yes 14 day, FREE clean eating challenge! We will be starting on September 30th!  Working together as a team to motivate one another and get each other started in the direction is the plan! I'm hoping to start with in the next 2 weeks and I would absolutely love for you to join us!

First off clean eating means eating food in their most natural state! For example you want apple juice, the clean choice will be eating an apple! Look at ingredients they should all be things your able to pronounce and that are grown or raised NOT processed!

Requirements!

- Every meal you eat should be a Clean meal!
- Drink 8 glasses of water a day or more!
- Aim for eating 5-6 small meals!
-Eat meals 2-3 hours apart!
- Watch portions! I am OBSESSED with My Fitness Pal, its a website and they also have an APP! All of my meals are on their, so if you are interested in what I am eating you can add me, Kellystjohn88

How to promote your Beachbody Business?

I've been doing a lot of researching lately and trying to find out all the best ways successful Coaches have promoted their business and give you all a complete list to help you reach your goals! Now we all know being a new coach can be overwhelming and trying to hit SC5 can be difficult at first especially in your second month! Here are some of the top tips to help you build your business and take it to the next level!

Tips:

1. Be a product of the product: Use Shakeology and workout everyday! You need to know what each workout is and how your customers are going to be feeling as they go through their own fitness journey! When others see your struggles and how you committed to change they can relate with you and they may have those same struggles you had. This will show that if you can do it your customers can have success too!

2. BLOG, BLOG,BLOG: Blogging can help you find a greater audience and through your writing they can find connections with you on a level which you relate and help you to start to build more relationships! There are many free "blogging boot camps" I would recommend starting with this one A Real Change!

3. Personal Development!: You want to begin to read on how small behaviors that can be done daily will automatically change your business and take it in the direction you are working hard for! Read from other successful people! Get their inside knowledge on how you can take you business to six figures! Dani Johnson offers a 30 day business training to help you get started on the right foot! I also recommend reading the Slight Edge! When I first joined with the Bombshell Dynasty this was the FIRST personal development book recommended! The next was the Compound Effect!

4. Beachbody Back Office: Use the tools in the Back Office such as the New Coach Training Academy, all of the Team Calls are back there as well! Begin listening to these they are a GOLD MINE! You can start with the Coach Training Academy! Log into your back office and go to News & Training, then click on the Coach Training Academy! Watch the first 4-5 videos on Business Essentials. After watch the Game Plan Core Activities!

5. Commit to be here from a year from now!: Run this company as if you paid 100,000 dollars to buy into this "franchise" and you should look at this as a million dollar opportunity! Building relationships may take time so don't feel discouraged when you see other coaches doing well. Don't say "Why isn't that me" think "Why not me!"

Bombshell Meal Timing

Meal timing is everything! As Americans we are raised with breakfast, lunch, and dinner. That's it no snacks, just 3 larger meals a day, between these three meals we experience a large insulin rushes or highs and the opposite large crashes or insulin crashes that leave our bodies feeling ready to eat everything in the house!

 

 By eating 5 to 6 small meals per day, you will increase your energy levels, accelerate muscle growth, and speed up your metabolism without storing fat. In fact, frequent eating will actually allow you to eat up to 50% more calories without storing an ounce of it as fat.

Eating 5 meals a day will boost your metabolism, helping you to burn more calories all day long.

In fact, by eating super-clean, high protein foods at each of your 5 meals, you will find that your metabolism goes into overdrive, becoming extremely efficient at burning off calories.

Frequent eating revs up your metabolism due to the thermic effect of food. This is because the breakdown and absorption of food itself requires a substantial number of calories.

You will also find it easier to build and maintain muscle.

You will feel 10x better by eating smaller, more frequent meals. Your energy level will soar and your hunger cravings will be destroyed. This is because eating 5(for women) to 6(for men) meals per day helps maintain a balanced blood sugar level, preventing hunger attacks.

Each meal should consist of complex carbs, protein, and fat.

Doing this along with cardio and weight lifting, you will become lean and fit. 

A typical meal timing schedule will look like this:

7am
10am
1pm
4pm
7pm
10pm

Eating these 5-6 meals a day will help you get the results you desire!!!
