Yesterday on the Sunday Morning Show, a new statistic and a milestone worth celebrating was announced.
Here it is:
The number of people smoking in the USA has reached an all-time low. For the first time ever, only one in nine people smoke tobacco.
This is huge and worth celebrating.
The fitness industry certainly cannot claim to be the sole reason for this country’s smoking decline. Several factors are involved for sure.
But, common sense would also indicate that the fitness industry is a huge player in this welcome announcement.
It’s time to celebrate!
When we celebrate, a form of giving gratitude, we attract more of the same. We need to celebrate with our tribe.
Here are a few ways:
- Put a sign up in a conspicuous place that announces this milestone
- Make announcements in all classes citing this progress
- Write about this milestone in your correspondence with your tribe
- If you have someone in your tribe that stopped smoking (don’t we all?), write about their success and create a tie-in to this national trend
- And the list goes on
Capitalizing on this story not only brings attention to the trend, but it also helps people feel good about their decision and commitment to all their fitness goals. And when people feel good about their work, they tend to gain more commitment and resolve that their goals are possible.
And as I said above, the list goes on.
Remember, you only get results when you take immediate action on your ideas.
