Good Morning
This
is generally the time of year we look back and reflect on the good
things that have happened during the year and those we would like to
improve upon. Many of us will make resolutions to get in shape, loose
weight or commit to a healthier lifestyle, some of us actually begin the
year working towards achieving those resolutions, but for most people,
sticking with it is a challenge.
Here are some suggestions that can help make the difference in achieving your goals:
- Make your goals measurable, by this I mean set specific goals: I want to loose 1 pound a week until I reach my goal weight, or I will eat 4 servings of vegetables each day.
- Commit to your goal, write it down and display it in a prominent place.
- Tell friends and family, they can help support you and keep you accountable.
- Find a buddy or online group, it is more fun to have a friend to workout with and you are more likely to stay motivated.
- Prepare, make sure you get rid of any foods that may tempt you away from achieving your goals.
- Reward yourself, plan some short term reward and a bigger long term reward for when you achieve your goal.
- Visualize what success feels like.
- Believe in yourself.
- If you mess up, forgive yourself and recommit to your goal.
