Change your life: Step 8- Set yourself up for success!
Changing you life is as simple as applying some easy steps, now that you are on step 8, you are well on your way. You have the desire you need to carry you through, you can imagine how great it will be, you have your map and you’re moving toward your goals…you’re even trying out that whole prayer thing. You are right on target. But let’s make sure you set yourself up for success. Earlier on you set your goals, where they attainable? Did you set your goals to high to reach? Did you set a goal to work out everyday only to find you didn’t work out at all? Did you set a goal of losing 10 lbs. a week? It may be time to revisit your goals so you don’t end up discouraged, or worse, quit!
It’s time now, to review and re-evaluate. If you are having trouble getting through the workouts, let’s find out why. If the gym you joined is too faryou need to put another plan in place. If you just don’t like to work out, begin charting how you feel after a workout? Do you feel energized, proud, tired hopeless, hopeful? Measure your emotion. Once you begin to see these feeling in writing you will be more likely to workout. Same goes with your eating (this is why journaling is so important), how do you feel physically or emotionally after finishing a bag of cookies or eating an order of Fry’s? Again, seeing it in writing can make an “aha” moment for you.
OK, that said, this also applies to never letting yourself have a cookie or French Fry’s. These are occasional foods and this is a lifestyle not a diet so if you occasionally have it, don’t beat yourself up. You are doing great!
