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 0:48  Alright, hello, welcome to Friday. It's a mini, quick, inspo day. This moment where we just go and know oh my god, less than a 10-minute podcast, remind me that things are awesome. There are wins out there. And if there are wins happening for other people, there can be wins for you. It's just how it goes. It's really how it goes. Our brain is in search of things that prove our thoughts correctly. And when you start thinking about winning as possible, you start to see other wins in your life. And so here are some wins from you guys, and then a win of mine and then a little affirmation for you to repeat to yourself today. Lesley Logan 1:21  So Joanne Sutton, she's an Agency member. And she wrote, "My client who found me on Google in April is now officially pain free as of the last four weeks, and it's all been done virtually. She is so happy and it looks like a different person. She really is my ideal client and keeps a log of all of her practice sessions following my on-demand videos, and then has fortnightly or every three weeks sessions with me so I can answer any questions fine-tune what she is doing, and progress to the next level. I'm so happy for her and love working with clients like her." I mean, Joanne how frickin amazing is that? Pain free. Oh my goodness, it feels so good. Okay, she also continues, "I have a new client who loved her first virtual sessions working through my on-demand videos too. I'm almost halfway through editing my book and come up with ideas for lead generations for my book and a client of 12 years pre-COVID has finally reached out to me to do a virtual lessons, which is so great." Oh, I love that first of all, can be so icky when somebody like who has been with you for a long time like decides they don't want to continue because maybe you changed how you offer your services. But look, they come back because they remember how good you make them feel. So important you all whether you are a teacher or something else if like if you are in the service of making people feel good people remember that and they come back around in their own time. We can't force them right we can't micromanage that but also Joanne is one of our Agents members who is writing a book we actually have three so one's published and then two are in the route there so congrats Joanne to all of that I'm so excited for your pain free fitness to get out there. Lesley Logan 2:52  Our other win is Selena Lo she's also an Agency member and she wrote, "Super happy with how my Pilates Mat classes are going. I covered these over the summer and now teach them full time. I have had great feedback from the clients and two have booked for all three classes for the rest of the month so they don't lose their space. One of these is a new to Pilates, ended our first class with him on Wednesday, came back today and now I seem to have a committed client who's fallen in love with Pilates." Isn't that just so nice, it's so nice when like you teach a class and people go oh my god I need this in my life I'm gonna schedule my life around you. There are people out there who just want to feel good and when you show up and you love what you're doing and you're competent in what you're doing it's like a magnet for that. So way to go Selena I'm so happy for you. And I know you're starting your other training program right now as we speak So congratulations on that big goal happening because I know you've been having your eye on it for over a year. So now you can send your wins in, I want you to I want to celebrate your wins. I want to shout them out. I want to help other people see what is possible for a win in your life. Lesley Logan 3:56  My win, you ready for this? This is like gonna blow your mind and this is a win because it is. I cleared up my closet I sold my peloton I'm creating space. Yes, I did. I have been wanting to clean up my closet for since 2020 and I would go through and like get rid of a couple of things here and there and like it felt like a lot you know it felt like it was space but I recently had a stylist go I think you could probably do a harsh edit on these clothes and I was looking at them and I was like she's frickin right so I went through it anything was fall and winter I just that I was like I have more than this. And it leads to falls and winters I'm pulling it out. And you could oh my gosh, I think you can like I think have less clothes than Brad does hanging up. So, so excited about that. And I sold my peloton, not because I don't love, love it but it's actually not great for my knee. And I have been really wanting to kind of have a place to like sit and read in my office and I was thinking about that and then this chair that I've been eyeing came up into my feed from a neighbor and I was like oh my god, but I have this peloton and I was like I'm not using the peloton because it hurts my knee. So I sell the peloton. For the price of the chair, boom, I'm creating space. It's a win, you guys, you cleaning out your closet, it's a win creating space in your life to let other things in, those are wins and we can't think of them as chores or to do list we have to think of them as like actions that are actually taking us to the next level in our life. And so, I'm so happy about that. I'll be in another closet edit in the new year for the spring stuff and selling and donating that stuff. So stay tuned for that winLesley Logan 4:18  Okay, so because you guys like them, here we go. Your affirmation to repeat, journal, think about, contemplate. It's like pulling a tarot card. I respect the cycle of the seasons. I respect the cycle of the seasons. You guys I know that like no one likes a winter. Everyone wants the summer to stand forever. But the world, the Earth, it has cycles for a reason. It actually is so great for the plants. It's so great for the soil. It's so great for you. So respect the cycle of the seasons and it's okay, as we're going into the winter season for those in the northern hemisphere to like do wintery things, have hot foods, curl up and like contemplate, right? Hibernate. For those in the southern hemisphere who are like working into your summer. Oh my god, enjoy the heck out of it right? And respect the cycle of the seasons. Journal about that. How are you going to respect the cycle of the seasons where you are, and until next time, Be It Till You See It. Lesley Logan 6:24  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.
