Financial and Fitness Success are the Same Part 1: Decision Making

Through my personal education I have been reading many personal success and finance success books.  I have found 100% of the principles that makes people successful in finance are the same that will make one successful in fitness.  Below is an example from the book Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.

“Analysis of several hundred people who have accumulated fortunes well beyond the million dollar mark disclosed the fact every one of them had the habits of making decisions very promptly and of changing these decisions slowly, if, and when they were changed.  People who fail to accumulate money, without exception, have the habit of reaching decisions, if at all, very slowly, and of changing these decisions quickly and often.” 

These examples apply to people who want to reach a fitness goal like fat loss.  Those who are successful pick one program or nutritional plan (usually quickly) and stick with it until the goal is complete.  Those who are unsuccessful take a long time if ever to pick a program  and/or bounce around with different ones and rarely, if ever find success.

Part 2 will discuss how opinions of others hold people back from achieving their financial and fitness goals.
