During a sleepless night back in February, I sat at my desk and scribbled three words repeatedly:
“Don’t be afraid.”
That moment was a catalyst for change. The next morning I decided to press the restart button on my life. After years working as fitness editor for Men’s Health magazine, I found myself drawn to LIVESTRONG.COM. It was a chance to help even more people establish a healthy life balance. But before I could move forward I had to learn to embrace the uncertainty of a new challenge.
In many ways, my story is your story. Maybe you’re not considering a new job, but at some point we all realize that taking action is the only thing that separates where we are from where we want to be. For me, leaving Men’s Health meant abandoning an amazing job, selling my home, and saying goodbye to friends and family. But I relied on my firm belief that new beginnings are always a step in the right direction if you have passionate intentions. And that the real secret to success is finding support, and recognizing that fear is nothing more than an illusion designed to silence confidence.
So as April begins, I’m inspired to continue my crusade against fear. And the entire team at LIVESTRONG.COM is here to offer the support you need to eat healthier, look better, and live the life you want. It starts with our new LIVESTRONG.COM column, “One Question, One Great Answer,” where we’ll show you the fastest way to jumpstart a new fitness routine. And it continues with weight loss recipes that actually taste good, and an inspirational story that proves it’s never too late to reshape your destiny.
I encourage you to tap into your own moment of change. All you have to do is take the first step, and we promise to provide the tools, tips, and information you need to turn your goals into a reality.
