When the world says, “Give up”, Hope whispers, “Try it one more time.” Perseverance is the key to success. There are bound to be times when you don’t feel like working out or just stop working out because you no longer see results. But there is always light at the end of the tunnel for the people who never give up. Instead of giving up, analyse why you are not getting results. Take the help of experts and keep moving towards your goal.

Getting fit and healthy is not something that happens on its own. It cannot happen in a day. It requires learning to eat well, exercise regularly and relax as well. Making these changes take time and commitment but you can do it. Just remember that no one is perfect. You will have occasional lapses and lag. When you eat a huge piece of cake, binge on mithai or skip the gym, don’t give up. Minor missteps on the road to your goals are normal and okay. Resolve to recover and get back on track. That is the key to success.

I won’t go with just one point for I believe that staying motivated through the year takes effort and will. Here’s what I suggest you do on a regular basis:
- Start small. Do not choose a big goal.
- Exercise whenever, wherever, and however possible.
- Aim for a little better instead of perfect.
- Get support from family and friends.
- Find accountability with someone to whom you should report to.
- Show up every day and show up again the next day.
- Plan for things that may go wrong.
- Take inspiration from others.
- And last but not the least, pair up with the right-minded people who want to achieve the same goal.
