1. Make obtainable goals
One trick is to make appropriate and obtainable goals. People often make overzealous goals and end up becoming frustrated when they struggle to reach those goals. It is better to make small, gradual and steady changes instead of drastic changes that result in frustration, failure, and possibly one returning back to their original habits. If your goal is to be more active in 2016, make a goal of trying to exercise one time a week. Once you meet that goal, check it off of your list and make a new goal such as exercising twice a week. This can be empowering for making healthy lifestyle changes.
2. Pick your battles
Remember to also “pick your battles.” If you do not reach your goal right away, instead of getting down on yourself, acknowledge that you did not reach the goal, but also think about why you did not reach your goal. When you identify the reason, you can work towards finding a solution. In the words of Dr. Stram “failure is not trying.”
3. Make lifestyle changes with a friend/loved one
Find a friend/loved one who is also interested in improving their lifestyle. Together you can motivate each other to work towards achieving your goals. They also can be your support system during the process.
If you follow these simple tips, you will begin to thrive on your journey towards optimal health.
Enjoy this healthy recipe as you begin to transform your lifestyle in 2016!
