"A goal without a plan is just a wish." --Antoine de Saint Exupery
Look at the progress you've made! Now, tackle one or two things that you've found harder to do than the rest, and break through whatever has been limiting you.
| 1. | Identify your trouble spots. Having a hard time walking for 30 minutes every day? Eating more vegetables? Whatever your sticking points are, write them down. |
| 2. | Get nitty-gritty. Figure out ways to make these things more appealing, and specify how and when. Will you take a whole loop around the megastore before you put anything in your cart? Snack on cut veggies on your way home from work? The more detailed you are, the more successful you'll be. |
| 3. | Put it all on the calendar. Schedule fruit snacks right on your calendar, as if they're just another meeting. Same with walks and breathing time. Treat them as if they're appointments with bigwigs -- take them seriously, and don't skip them. They may get you just as far ahead in life. |
| 4. | See and feel yourself succeed. Winners don't just see themselves at the finish line. They also visualize how they'll get there. For instance, see yourself reaching past the doughnuts to get to the melon at a breakfast buffet. Imagine how juicy the cantaloupe will be. Or watch yourself march by your smoking spot and around the block. If you've done it in your mind, you can do it in your day. Coach Bobby McGee has helped Olympians win gold with this way of thinking. It can get you what you want, too, and it's free! From RealAge |
