It’s You Time!

February 11, 2016 By Beth Nydick Leave a Comment

DeathtoStock_Medium10“Put in the work, nothing comes easy in life”. Would be SO nice if it did but in reality it takes hard work and dedication to accomplish your goals. UGH, I’m bored with myself already. I officially have been working with Solution Fitness for a month. I have made progress but now comes the real test. KEEP PUTTING IN THE WORK! I’ve been distracted this week by work and the kids. Yesterday, Joe threatened to add weights to my dead lifts if I didn’t stop “huffing and puffing. I refocused on myself blocked out all my stressors and finished strong. Refocusing on myself and doing the work is my mantra for the next 8 weeks.

As a mom and an entrepreneur it’s always about getting the work done, hitting my next benchmark, taking care of the kids, but when is it about me? Never, not unless I take that time and yes, the boys have found me hiding in the bathroom on the phone. Don’t pretend you have never done that too! I’ve been on the phone with you while your hiding.

Ok, are you with me? Time to refocus on us. Here are three things I’ll be incorporating into my routine.TROPICAL1-Create a daily ritual- I just downloaded a Mediation app on my phone, I’m going to take 10 minutes after the kids leave for school to meditate three times a week.

2-Plan- I am a great planer for meals and healthy eating but for work and play, not so great. On Sunday nights I will plan my workouts on non Solution Fitness days and plan my work days, when I will be working on specific projects and brands.

3-Acceptance- I work A LOT, I’m in bed right now writing this at 2:30am. I can’t be equally productive every single moment, so I will schedule some off time and not feel guilty about it.

What do you think about the “ME” time in your life? We are all so busy all of the time. Take a beat, what do you really want ? Have you been wanting to start a fitness routine, healthy eating or just cleaning the closet? Whatever it is, time to set up! You do it! Let me know in the comments below what you are going to do this week to step up.

Love,

Beth

Add those veggies! It so much easier to make a hea Add those veggies! It so much easier to make a healthy dinner when you have roasted a whole bunch of veggies. Last nite I made zucchini with scallion, carrots with parsley , tomato with garlic and it took me 5 minutes. Here is how to make veggies fast and tasty.
1. Pull all the veggies you have in the house that you can cook. Pick 3 to 4.
2. Chop everything into big pieces or keep whole.  3. Add to a bowl, add olive oil, salt and pepper. Get really crazy and peel some garlic to throw in. Put it all onto 1 or more oiled pans.
4. Roast the shit out of them. 375’ for 20-40 minutes is always a safe bet. You can always ask Alexa or google for that particular veggie. 
5. Have some right out of oven, taste the best!
6. Pack them into containers and save for tomorrow.
7. When hungry pull out some veggies, pour them into a pan to heat up. I like to top mine with a fried egg or avocado and salsa.
8. Enjoy! ⁣

Relationship and collaboration ! I say it all the Relationship and collaboration ! I say it all the time and I live it.  I was asked to be apart of this incredible fundraiser.  Because .. well I’m fab.... that and I have a relationship with @dishitgirldina  @jessica_dambra & @cmspiceculture , the hosts. No I don’t know them from my kids and have only met Dina in person. But when I’m booked on their show, I show up in top shape, create a fantastic segment and follow up with social media leverage. We all work as a “team”, tagging each other to get  out the content. ................The way I made it happen from the start was this.... I saw Dina was hosting a new local show and I reached out to her and the producer. The producer was excited for me to bring cocktails to the show. Nothing special, just people being people. What are you doing to create your next opportunity from your contact list?? Yes, right now!?!?? Nothing? Let’s talk, I bet you I will help you find more than one. .. ⁣
