What Are You Putting Off Due to Your Weight?

What are you putting off due to your weight?

This past weekend I was up in Vail with some friends, staying in this incredible condo only yards from the lift.

In years past I have always been a bit shy skiing with others, worrying that I wouldn’t be good enough, or that they would make fun of me.

This weekend I found myself skiing with four other men, all of which are pretty darn good snowboarders. At first I wanted to ski off on my own, for fear of looking like a goob. Yet, I held it together and skied with them for several runs.

What I realized is that for over two decades of me skiing, I’ve been scared to ski with others because I thought I would lag behind and I was fearful that I would be embarrassed. What I found out this weekend was that I’m a pretty darn good skier for someone who doesn’t ski all that often, and that I have absolutely no reason to be embarrassed.

How many things are you putting off due to your body? Do you find yourself scared to take on skiing, biking, wearing beautiful clothes, or even coaching with me because you know I’ll hold you accountable?

What would life look like if you didn’t hold back? If you faced your fear?

I encourage you to do one thing this week that you’ve been putting off due to added pounds or what you fear others will think.

You can do it!!

Tell me how it goes.
