Information Overload Leads To Analysis Paralysis
by Jackie Burgmann, author of “Hot at Home” – The Transformation Solution for People Who Hate The Gym

If you’re just now getting the idea that it’s time you got off your butt and got in shape, then good for you. It’s probably about high time.

But WAIT. Are you so new at the game of fitness that you don’t know where to start? So stumped, in fact, that you’ve been spending time avoiding starting?

Or so stumped that you’re avoiding starting because you don’t want to look stupid at the gym? Or hurt yourself with improper form? Or make no progress because you’re doing all the wrong things?

Are you so stymied that you’ve been spending all your time looking things up and researching every fitness subject known to mankind? Getting as much information as possible? Listening to everyone who professes to be a ‘fitness guru’ or ‘nutrition guru’ or ‘wellness guru’? Spending money like mad on resources and books and manuals and … and … and … ???

Well STOP!! Stop starting … well stop starting THIS way … because THIS way is no way to start.

Are you in a complete state of “Analysis Paralysis”? Too much information coming at you from too many directions saying too many different and contradictory things is not going to do you any service whatsoever. What it will MOST likely do is cause you to throw up your hands and just walk away in frustration and confusion.

Not everyone out there handing out information is even a reliable source of information. Anyone who knows how to throw up a website can throw out any information they want and call it ‘health and fitness advice’.

Which means you may never pick up a dumbbell or hit the running path for a walk before you give up in disgust, feeling down on yourself and like the biggest dumbbell of them all.

So stop what you’re doing. And get smarter about it by stopping the over-researching. You might even want to take a step back and ask yourself if you aren’t actually just procrastinating, looking for ways to NOT have to get on with the actual process of getting in shape, which is WORK.

Some people will do anything to get out of work.

But there is no easy fix, my friend. The only way to get what you want is to work for it. Not read about it. Work for it.

The very best thing you can do to get started is pick the ONE thing you want MOST to accomplish and make that your SINGULAR goal. Want to lose weight? Never mind building a body of solid steel first, concentrate on getting that fat off first. And then just TAKE that first small step. I’m not saying to read that first book, I’m saying take the first step of ACTION. Just START.

The road to success can only be traveled by taking that first step, right?

So, talk to a personal trainer about what your best course of action for realizing YOUR personal and specific and biggest goal is. Then take their advice. Go do what they tell you it takes, because that’s what they’re there for. It’s their JOB to give you the RIGHT advice to make your fitness goals a reality.

Or, get your hands on a highly recommended workout program that promises to deliver the result you’re after and WORK the program. Don’t just try it a week then ditch it and head back into research-mode. A fit body is not built overnight. Stick with it and give it a chance to deliver on the promises it’s made.

And for pete’s sakes stop being a victim of “Analysis Paralysis”, admit it’s actually procrastination on your part and like Nike says “Just DO It”.
