Want to look the best you've ever looked? Feel better than
you've ever felt? Be the best you you've ever been?
I'm sure the answer is YES!
How to do it you wonder?
By Effective Goal Setting and Pre Empting Excuses. Sounds
simple, but don't underestimate the power of these tools.
Here are 3 steps to getting you closer to a healthier,
happier you!
1.Goal Setting. This is the most important of all 12
principles! Without a clear goal, then you can not have
clear direction. The most important thing about goal
setting is that it is realistic and very specific. For
example it's not enough to just say you want to lose
weight, or even to say that you want to lose 10lbs.
Here's what to do:
Choose a date in the future including the day, month, and
year; it's a good idea to choose a date that may be
significant to you or a date that's linked to special event.
Next describe where you will be when you know you have
achieved your goal. Will you be in your room in front of
the mirror? Will you be sitting at your desk in your
office? Be specific!
Finally how will you know you achieved it. Will you be
doing up your belt and realise you've had to tighten it a
few notches? WIll you be putting on your favourite outfit
and realise if fits perfectly? What will you look like and
feel like from head to toe? Get the picture? Start to live
that moment as if it has already happened.
2. Visualise Your Goal. It's critical that you don't go
through the hard work of setting your goal simply to forget
about it. Visualise it every single day! Choose a time in
the morning or a time when you're on your way to work,
basically a time when you know you have a few minutes to
reflect on and live the moment in which you have achieved
your goal.
3. No Excuses. At the start of each day think of potential
moments or situations that may put you off track. Come up
with a plan before they happen. For example if you know you
have to meet a friend for dinner, think ahead and choose a
place that you know will have healthy meals that you can
choose from. If you know you're going to have a busy
evening, fit your exercise in to the morning or at lunch.
Be one step ahead, all the time!
I know this is just the start of a HEALTHIER HAPPIER YOU!
Go for it! Give it a try
