I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Lesley Logan 0:47  Happy Fuck Yeah Friday. Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It podcast. This is where we share your wins. And then I share some mine and all this is to inspire us weekly, at least something daily for you all to celebrate what is going well what is happening that you are so proud of. And I think sometimes we think the wins have to be really big. I know a lot of people won't celebrate a win until it's like the full project is completed. But you should actually celebrate the milestones along the way. So we'll start with a win of someone else's. And then I'll share one of mine. So Christine Ashton, who we just got to see in California while on tour, she's a beautiful lavender farm. She wrote, hey, FYF, I've got a temporary client for the month who saw my flyer at the grocery store, where I thought I was hearing crickets, and just had a phone consult. I had a new client book a beginner's package after seeing my ad in our local private community newspaper. I love this one. Because it's so funny, like how we can just think like, nothing is working, nothing is working. And then like, boom, in one day, you have two people who have finally seen what you've been put out in the world. And so congratulations, Christine, I hope you had an amazing time with that client who was in town for the month, and the new client from the newspaper. I have one more one I want to share with you. And that is from Kelly Nyhan. She is In eLevate, an agency. And so we've got kind of a double dose win here. She said I received a compliment in my pocket suite app from one of my clients. It said, "Thanks for the great session today. I love all the new things you're teaching me, you're the best. Tell your teacher that I said so." Hee, I mentioned how I was learning so much in my eLevate mentorship program, then she also added, "I challenged myself to use my new equipment with my clients this week, she has a new pedal Contrology mat, Contrology springs, my clients are loving it, the mat definitely help my clients when they connect, it's especially the roll up." Well, I love that. So she pocket suite is there's a version of the tool that Profitable Pilates has joined with. And we have coaching videos that go along with all the features. And we have waivers and liability forms and all this stuff. And so it can be hard to like, just try new technology in your business. And also, it can be really difficult to get your clients to try it out. And the only issue been doing it and she's been so dedicated this whole year doing it, somebody sent like a little testimonial and love note in there. And as far as like eLevate program goes, I love that, like I love seeing our members in there, apply what they're learning with their clients and bring them along the journey. Because it allows clients know we're always learning. We're always learning. So thank you, Kelly, for sharing that. Okay, so here's the win. We're home, we wrapped up the West Coast tour, we had a great time, we got to work out along the way, which that's a win, right there is just that we planned so well that we could have time every single day to hit a jam, head a dog park, and also eat the things we wanted to eat. I got we had a whole foods within every single place, I got to get some pair foods that made it really great. And I call this a win. Because sometimes we have an air quotes vacation and we get out of routine, it can be really difficult to keep the things up to make you feel really good. But we managed to make that happen, which means it's going to happen this winter, because we figured out a way to make it work. And I'm just so grateful. Another one we have is that we are over a month ahead in a new project that we're working on. And it's just so nice that it's nice to see the things come to fruition when you plan ahead early and you actually stick to the schedule because sometimes you can procrastinate like I have I've time to do this because I'm already just doing it early to get ahead. It's like actually, no, this is a deadline, and we're going to meet that deadline, even though it is gonna be a month early because we're trying to give ourselves space and grace when things come up and not be rushed all the time. So win for me, win for the team, I'm really excited about that. Every single Friday we do this. So make sure you send your wins in. You can actually if you get the podcast newsletter, you can actually send them into there. I'll share them here. And also just take a moment to just write in your own notes on your phone like what's the win you're celebrating this week. And if you do that every day, it's even better but let's just start with one week, one day at a time and see how it goes because when you celebrate your wins, you realize just how far you're coming along. And you get to listen back and go, Oh my God, I did do that. That's what I did. That's amazing. I actually listened to this podcast when it comes out. And I get to vote I'm reminding myself of when I had it makes me just go Oh, yeah, I'm slight I'm just saying when I give myself credit for. So I hope this podcast has also helps you do that.
