It is time to let criticism, condemnation and judgement go!

"When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself"

                                                                                                             Dr. Wayne Dyer

One of my long time clients handed me the NY Times Sunday Review from last week and starting on the front page was an interesting op-ed piece on Personal Trainers.

While I would like to agree with the writers interpretation of what Personal Trainers have become ultimately it does me no good to criticize, condemn or judge others in my profession or even the writer.

If you would like take the time to look up the article and google it please do so and you may have your own thoughts on it to live with... or not and let it go.

For me, it has been tough not to interject my opinion about the Fitness Industry and Personal Training as I would be condemning the very thing that I do. I can only take one moment at a time with each of the people I try to help. I find that I judge, criticize and condemn myself enough so there is no point in doing it to others.

My tools for helping people are not better, they are just my tools. And for those that use my services I can only do my best. I can't look around and make judgements on what other trainers are doing to their clients because more than likely, I hope, they are trying to help them the best that they can.

Health and Happiness!
