Chapter Three F.I.T. Takeaway

Chapter Three:

Step Three | Commit to the F.I.T Power Hour

This is where it really starts getting good, and it breaks down the routine we need to set for ourselves. Power Hours are for more than just businesses. They can be beneficial to those of us trying to get back our health and our walk with God!

• We need to prioritize and actively make the time to do things that will bring us closer to a healthy lifestyle.
• When the inside is right, the outside will follow.
• The F.I.T Power Hour contains:
• A daily, one-hour commitment broken into 3 twenty-minute segments
• Focuses on spiritual, mental, and physical fitness
• There are 3 components:
• F.I.T Soul: Where we spend time in the Word
• F.I.T Mind: Where we spend time with ourselves in reflection, prayer, and gratitude
• F.I.T Body: Where we spend time exercising
• This doesn't have to be 20 min. per section, you can switch it up as you see fit, and can even combine sections. Just GET THEM ALL IN!
• Spending time in the Word, and feeding our soul is the MOST IMPORTANT thing we can do to achieve our health and fitness goals.
• Spending time with God prepares our hearts to allow Him in and reminds us to carry Him with us wherever we go and turn to Him with every problem.
• We need to have a daily goal of getting closer to the Word than the world.
• The ONLY opinion that matters is our Lord's
• We need to commit to 5 minutes of journaling first thing in the morning, on a break, or in the evening. Spend time getting to know yourself and your triggers.
• Pray/read scriptures that support you in whatever your going through.
• Use the replacement strategies from Step Two to undo any thoughts that are not from God.
• Dream big, plan, reflect, pray, and know in faith that God is working in your life.
• Make time for exercise. Plan it into your day. This is a serious commitment!
• Prioritize! God should be your FIRST priority, always!

Hope you guys enjoyed this take away! I have gotten behind in my reading. I've finished the first part of Chapter 4, and will read some more before bed tonight. Hope to get up that takeaway Friday or Saturday!

I will also be posting right after this one a post about the 80/20 rule.

Stay strong, MindBody&Soul!
