Creating Fitness often starts with not even needing any physical attributes in the first place. These are often aspects of clients that I look for when deciding if they are a good fit and can form an awesome way to predict their level of success from their training and nutrition programs. These behaviours often are completely seperate from the physical forms of fitness altogether. The great news is that you can choose to improve these at anytime and as a result this will heighten your chances of success from training and life!

1. Attitude; This is my number 1 point for a reason. I firmly believe and would you agree that your attitude to change determines your future level of success more than any other factor? When your attitude is good, your outcome will far likely be better than if your attitude sucks. If you are stuck not really making any progress, check your attitude to change. Are you carrying the mindset of the champion or the loser? Generally, the reason you are at the point you are, is the way you think and talk to yourself and others. If you go into training and eating with the best most positive attitude you can possibly go in with, you will influence and create a better training outcomes than complaining, whinging and whining about everything. Therefore, in order to create positive change, you must assess your current attitude and work on where you think you might be able to improve the most.
2. Punctuality: Arriving on time and finishing on time can influence massively whether you will reap the benefits of your training...or not. Do you believe that how you do one thing, is how you do everything?. When I see people arriving late and finishing early for no genuine reason, I question their commitment level to changing what they wanted to do in the first place. Aside from this when you arrive late and finish early to your training session, you feel rushed hurried and continually clock watch, which not only can seriously increase your chances of injury and illness but reduces your focus and enjoyment of your training.
3. Coachability: Being coachable is one of life's most important skills and attitudes, whether or not you're an athlete. If you're any kind of person who wishes to grow, learn, improve, excel or peak perform, you should care about whether or not you're coachable. In other words, being coachable relates to a happy, productive life. Although it is super healthy to ask plenty of questions to your coach, thinking that you know better than the advise, doing things your own way despite not really doing your own research can seriously hinder your levels of progression, moreover put friction between you and then coach plus other members of your fitness squad. Make sure you go into every training session with an open mind and respect the expertise of the coach.
4. Commitment level: There's no doubt about it, when you commit yourself by 100% to make your improvements, you will spend exactly as much energy, yet far outweigh any of your counterparts that have only 90% commitment level. Your commitment level will seriously improve your focus and drive towards achieving your goals. When you set goals you will need to have a goal that so personal, it really gets inside your head and your body so you commit to it by 100% towards it everyday allowing you to crush your goals and fears faster than you ever thought possible. This means that no one else can set your goals for you in order for you to get the best results. It has to come from deep within you in order for you to commit fully, in turn enabling the best results.
5. Working through and embracing the fear of new challenges: My most successful clients have realised that with every new challenge they've had to take ownership and embrace the fear of pain within change. Things are not going to be comfortable whatsoever when you are creating change and although it's perfectly normal and essential to feel fear, the clients that are the most successful keep pushing through despite their fears as a result accomplish amazing transformations both physical and mental.
