This is How Demi Lovato Stays Motivated During Her Work-Outs

Demi Lovato works hard to be healthy and to keep in shape — but even she doesn’t love exercise all the time.

“It’s knowing how great I’m going to feel after,” the 24-year-old pop princess told People of her motivation for working out. “I always feel more energized when I exercise in the morning – it helps me throughout the day.”

It also helps her to get through grueling work-outs to remember that all you can do is take care of yourself, and beyond that, it’s all about self-love.

“I know I’m doing everything I can to take care of myself,” she continued, “If there’s something about my body that I don’t like, I remind myself that it doesn’t define who I am. The more you tell yourself that you’re beautiful, the more you start to believe it.”

Well said. While most of us don’t work out as hard or often as Demi, we can definitely take her words about self-confidence and achieving your goals to heart.
