Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

Tell it like it is.
The promise of another year is stretched out before you. The shape you are in now is a reflection on what you have been doing for the past year. The shape you will be in a year from now will be a reflection on where your head is at. If you need a little tough love, here are 5 things NOT to do this year -
1. Don't bore those around you with reasons why you can't fit health / fitness in to your life. Do it or don't do it - if you don't care neither will anyone else.
2. Don't let a love of food ("I am such a foodie!") be your excuse for gluttony. Who wouldn't like to eat as much delicious food as they wanted?
3. Don't use lack of time management as an excuse. Everyone has the same amount of time as you. If you really want it, you will find the time. If you don't you will find an excuse.
4. Don't harp on set backs, and there will be many. Be done with each day and plan for the next.
5. Don't underestimate the power of progress. To lose 10kg, you have to lose 10g first. To do 10 pull ups you have to do 1. Plan your work and work your plan, record your results. Project you.
Potential is in the palm of your hands. Gold.

Build a solid foundation. Watch yourself air squat. Until you see yourself doing it, you may never get it. If you have an iPad, record yourself performing the fundamental movements - deadlift, clean, etc.
'The urge to quickly move away from the basics and toward advanced movements...make no mistake: it is a sucker’s move.' Greg Glassman
