21 Mindset Tips to Help You Get Past Mental Roadblocks

How's your summer going? Have you given up on your fitness routine and mindful eating? Have you told yourself: "I'll get back to my routine in September?" Have you made progress or did your motivation sizzle out?

Most people wait around for motivation to strike them like a lightning bolt. Well, I've got news: motivation isn't something that happens to you - it's something that you create for yourself.

If you don't feel motivated to achieve your goals, it's likely due to mental roadblocks that hold you hostage (Like telling yourself that you're taking "the summer off").

If you're looking for that kick in the rear and need some extra motivation, try some of these mindset tips/mantras/affirmations and prepare your mind for success.

1. Success comes first in the mind, so visualize yourself accomplishing your goals.
2. Remember, you are the only person who can hold you back.
3. Forgive yourself and love yourself despite past failures.
4. Decide what is important in your life, and focus on that.
5. Conquer each negative thought the moment it enters your mind, when it is weakest.
6. Give up the idea that things won't go right unless you worry about them.
7. If you bring the body of your dreams to the point of resolve, then you'll soon be living in it.
8. Look towards your future, if you believe the best is yet to come then it will be.
9. You become what you think about most.
10. The margin between success and failure is very small and easily bridged by determination.

16. Every decision you make leads you either closer toward achieving your goal, or farther from it.

18. Once you've set your goal, your attitude either pushes you toward accomplishment or failure.
19. If you don't know exactly where you want to go, you will likely end up someplace else.
