Good afternoon {!firstname_fix! Happy Fri-yay!
I hope you’re having a wonderful week and enjoying some downtime with your family and friends!
As we get ready for 2020, I wanted to share something that will help you create a game-changing year.
It’s SO SIMPLE, and it always works!!
Have you ever noticed how successful people all have one basic thing in common?
They take small, consistent actions toward their goals … and they don’t stop. They keep going even when they screw things up. They don't slash the other tire!
It’s like the girl who decides she wants to play basketball and sets a goal to make a specific number of shots a day... every day… NO MATTER WHAT.
(Random fact: Many NBA players aim for 500+ shots a day.)
Or the student who goes to the library every night for 90 minutes to study…
Or the writer who writes X number of words every day without fail…
Or the business owner who tracks their financials every afternoon…
… and the ambitious woman who makes time for self-care each day with 1-2 small daily habits.
One of the habits that I created for myself is having water before coffee. I have at least 26 oz of water before I have my coffee. I'm not perfect with it, but most mornings of the week, I get my water in! I feel much better when I do this!
There’s a saying that the easiest things to do are also the easiest things NOT to do.
And ironically enough, those are the very same things that can either drive you to your goals … or prevent you from reaching them.
→ It’s easy to decide to do a few stretches or some light yoga at night to help you wind down. It’s also easy to decide NOT to do it because you’re too tired or busy.
→ It’s easy to decide to pack your lunch for work. It’s also easy to decide NOT to do that because there’s a sandwich shop next to the office.
→ It’s easy to go for an afternoon walk to help with your daily movement and energy levels … and it’s also easy to grab a cup of coffee instead.
Nothing wrong with coffee, of course, I LOVE it, but if you find yourself ALWAYS reaching for a cup, two or three in the afternoon, then it might be time to take a deeper look into why this is happening.
Success usually has very little to do with a huge 10-point master plan with bullet points and subheadings ...
It’s small, non-negotiable habits that help you gain traction and make real progress over time.
It's sustainable habits/changes that set you up for success!
Such as:
-getting 7-10K steps a day - heck just start walking daily!
- drinking more water.
- lifting 2-4 times a week.
- getting in more veggies into your meals.
- working on improving your sleep - getting to bed a bit earlier - really prioritizing sleep!
To name a few.
Such a powerful message for this time of year! What small changes can you implement in 2020 to help you live your best life? Hit reply and share them with me. I love hearing from you!
Lastly, brace yourself because you will be bombarded with all the quick fix nonsense. Don't fall it. Do better this year! Remember that you need a strategy that will work for YOU, one that you'll enjoy, and one that you can actually ADHERE to overtime - heck for a lifetime!
Have a fabulous Friday!!
