Re-setting your goals

I was having a hard time deciding what I should write for my next post, even though there are millions of things out there to write about.

In an email I got a day or two ago, "The Well Daily" they describe how to re-vamp your goals.

Make your goal a visual one, draw or write something out. Make your goal visible to yourself, to keep you motivated. If you have one BIG goal first, such as losing weight --


  • Make little goals along the way. Make a goal to adjust the way you eat, simply by cutting out or adding more fruits and veggies. DON'T tell yourself you'll lose 10 pounds in one week..you'll get stressed out and probably end up gaining 10 pounds.
  • What is your overall goal? The outcome? How do you feel about this? What is your projected time frame? Is it realistic? be sure to ask yourself these questions, and realize the real meaning of your question. If you want to lose 20 pounds and weigh 115, try not to get stuck on a number of HOW much you want to weigh, but your health. Do you want to be healthy and in shape? or are you just concerned about a certain number on the scale. 
  • Constantly check back at where you are on your timeline. Make a check list if it helps. Even if it's a daily check list, anything to help you stay on track.
These mini goals you set before reaching the final goal will help you stay closer to your final goal and keep you motivated. It'll keep your end goal in sight and realistic. Your vision will now become a reality! 

P.S. Get a cute notebook to keep notes in, it'll make it more fun to write
