Attack Your Goals Like a Black Diamond

"I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength." Philippians 4:13


This passage is one of my favorites. It guides me whenever I am facing challenges.


Challenges like making a big lift in the gym, having difficult conversations, or trying to solve a problem with my business.


Last week I relied on it while I was skiing in Colorado. 


You see, I wanted to ski the black diamond runs at Copper Mountain. These runs are usually steep, icy, and riddled with moguls (bumps).   


If you stand at the top and look down to the bottom it can really intimidate you and shake your confidence. However, if you attack the hill the right away you can get down to the bottom rather quickly and unscathed.


The key is to take the bigger problem (this really steep hill) and break it down into manageable sections.


By focusing on taking a good path through each section and making good turns you will make your way through and be down the hill in no time.


Skiing these black diamonds is a lot like tackling a BIG fitness goal. It can be daunting and overwhelming if you only focus on the end.



However, if you break your goals into smaller more manageable parts, you can effectively attack the goal and before long it will become a reality.


You may be saying, that's great, Erik, but I don't have the time, energy, or knowledge on how to create a plan that delivers results. And besides that, nothing really keeps me motivated to move forward down "the black diamond" towards my goal.


Here is where we can help. It all starts with a TRANSFORMATION SESSION where we do a deep dive into your goals, obstacles, lifestyle and other important information. Then, we'll develop a SPECIFIC PLAN - together, to draw an effective path through the "moguls" of life and to your goal.


If you are not currently working with us or have not worked with us in awhile just hit the button below to set that up and let's get you down that "steep hill" to your goal!


I am on a mission to transform 50 lives this year and I want you to be one of them.


Dedicated to your breakthrough in 2023,


Erik Peacock
