Are your health goals realistic? 5 Tips for Creating Goals That are Reachable.
5 tips to creating realistic goals.
Goals, dreams, and intentions we all have them and we all strive to achieve them.
Goals keep using moving forward, help us gain a higher perspective, and inspire us to become better than we were yesterday.
But what happens when we miss our targets, and our dreams fall below the wayside once again?
Are you quick to give up when it gets bumpy? or does it fire up your motivation to keep aiming?
Well in my line of passion, goals, and objectives are first on the list to discuss when it comes to working with a new client.
"What are your goals?"
It seems pretty simple when the question is first asked, but as always if these goals are not truly heartfelt to an individual, those "goals" soon become unattainable.
Unfavorable habits and weakness fall victim again, and you find yourself at the bottom once more.
It doesn't have to be this way my friend, let me tell you why.
People fall so easily short of their goals because they aren't truly relevant. I know an irrelevant goal when I hear it...
"I want to lose 50 lbs before I go on vacation"
"I want to put on 30 lbs of ONLY MUSCLE."
"I'd like to look like her, but with a bigger butt"
This type of mindset is unrealistic, and these types of goals are purely superficial.
Wanting to look a certain way will never bring you fulfillment because, in the end, the picture you have in your mind is always different than it presents itself.
When I know a client is truly ready to make a lifestyle change when I hear things like...
"I want to feel strong from the inside out."
"I'd like to feel good in my own skin"
"I want to have the energy to take care of my kids and be active"
These are the individuals I consciously choose to help, and I know they're ready to make a change.
So how can you build relevant goals to stay on track?
Here are 5 Tips for Creating Realistic Goals.
Commitment
How much time and energy do you really have to commit to what you want?
Is it only going to be a Monday-Friday affair? Or is this a lifelong journey?
Commitment is long-term and the road can be bumpy along the way.
Think about this when setting your intentions, will you find the strength to stay devoted?
Visualization.
Where do you see yourself 3 months down the road? Still, dedicated? Did things come up and your goals are put on hold?
The real challenge is later down the road, are you going to stop progressing when you reach your objective, or is there something new to always be learning?
Motivation.
What's going to be your motivation every single day to keep progressing?
Do you have a support system that wants you to be your best?
Your motive is KEY to your success, if you aren't loving and enjoying what you do, you can kiss it goodbye.
Sacrifices.
When choosing a goal are you going to be sacrificing anything?
Time? Special foods? Restrictions? etc.
If so please think long and hard about this one, sacrifices can leave us depleted and set us up for failure, it's best to work with your weakness and not against them!
Environment.
Tune into your environment, is it going to be easy to fall back into old habits?
Are you willing to change your environment? The environment is everything when it comes to breaking through old ways of being. Your surroundings have a huge influence on your everyday routine, be conscious of the energy you’re allowing into your environment.
Dreaming up goals and wanting to make a difference in your welling is a beautiful journey.
It brings you into the depth of who you are and where you’re going.
We're all born with the same opportunity to evolve. Face your challenges head-on and love yourself unconditionally through them.
Support
You may think that you can do a lot without help, but there will come a time when things are stuck. Everybody needs help from professionals at some point with regard to their health. If you have the right support behind you, your health will be in a much better position for a longer time. Regular checkups will help you to avoid any serious damage as certain issues can be caught before they develop. Your cognitive functions could also be preserved with the likes of hearing aid services and eye doctors stepping in. Never be too proud to regularly schedule appointments with people who know what they’re talking about.
Now over to you, share your thoughts.
I'd love to hear what keeps you motivated and your tips on creating realistic goals.
