So we’re three weeks into 2014…have you set your goals yet? Are they fitness related? Health related? Spiritually related? Are you sticking to them???
So much of reaching goals is mental and a lot of the time we let our brains get in the way. “What if it’s too hard?” “What if I mess up?” “What if people think differently of me?”
Be honest, do any of these sound familiar? How much of the time do you let your head dictate what you “think” you can achieve?
I’m definitely guilty of this. I get excited about doing something new and then I second guess my goals until I have beat them to death with all the reasons why I don’t think it will happen. So what if I changed that thought process to think of all the things that could potentially happen because of reaching those goals? What if I had a positive attitude and actually reached my goals?
The other aspect of achieving goals is making them public. You mean I have to actually tell people what my goals are??!! YEPPERS!! When we put our goals out there for world to see it makes them real, it brings them to life. Frankly it makes my heart do double time. But what fun is life without some excitement? So here are my fitness goals for 2014: (and yes I’m anal enough to put them in a spreadsheet)
So what happens if I don’t achieve all of them? So what?! I will work my hiney off to get there and I KNOW that I will make improvements, and making forward progress is exactly what matters.
Are you willing to put your goals out there, to share them with the world so you can be held accountable? Share them here…I would love to know what they are and help you achieve them!! Post your goals in the comments below and get ready to have an absolutely BEDAZZLED 2014!
