Why “I Don’t Like That” Is Keeping You Stuck

If you’ve ever avoided a workout or skipped a habit because it wasn’t your favorite… this might be the wake-up call you didn’t know you needed.


Hey babe,

Can I tell you something that might make you a little uncomfortable?

The things you don’t like doing in your fitness routine might be the exact reason you’re not seeing the results you want.

I know that sounds a little harsh—but stay with me.

Because I’ve seen it over and over again (and yes, I’ve been guilty of it myself).

“I Don’t Like That” Is Just Code for “I Don’t Want to Be Uncomfortable”

How many times have you said something like:

  • “I don’t like lifting heavy weights.”

  • “I don’t like tracking my food.”

  • “I don’t like early workouts.”

  • “I don’t like meal prepping.”

And so… you avoid those things.

You stick to what feels easy. Comfortable. Familiar.

But here’s the truth nobody talks about:

Results don’t care what you like.

Your dream body won’t appear just because you enjoyed every workout. Your abs won’t pop just because you felt like eating clean.

Transformation happens through discomfort.

Growth Doesn’t Come From Doing the Same Easy Things

Think about it…

When you were a baby, learning to walk wasn’t easy. You fell down. A lot. You got frustrated. But you didn’t stop because it felt hard or because you “didn’t like it.”

You kept going—because deep down, something in you knew the end result would be worth it.

That same mindset is what you need to bring to your fitness journey.

  • Those heavy weights? They build the sculpted, toned look you’re chasing.

  • That food tracking you avoid? It helps you actually understand how to fuel your body.

  • Those early workouts? They build consistency, which is the secret to success.

“Like” Is a Skill You Can Learn

Let me be real with you—I used to hate squats. Every single rep felt like torture. But I stuck with it. And now? I love how powerful and confident I feel when I load that barbell and crush my sets.

I used to dread meal prepping. Now? It feels like a form of self-care. It sets my week up for success and takes away so much stress.

The things that once made me cringe… are now the habits I can’t live without.

Your 7-Day Challenge: Do One Thing You “Don’t Like”

Here’s what I want you to do this week:

Pick ONE thing you’ve been avoiding because it’s uncomfortable—and commit to doing it for 7 days.

  • Maybe it’s tracking your food.

  • Maybe it’s going to the gym on a day you usually skip.

  • Maybe it’s drinking that protein shake you keep putting off.

  • Maybe it’s going to bed earlier so you wake up ready to train.

Just one thing. One week.

And instead of focusing on whether you “like it”…

Focus on how it makes you feel.

Because the truth is, when you start doing things your future self will thank you for… everything starts to shift.

Stop hiding behind your preferences.

Stop letting “I don’t like that” hold you back.

Your dream body is waiting for you outside of your comfort zone.

You’ve got this, babe.

Love,
