Reaching your health goals in 2020
First of all, to reach your health goals, you’re going to have to learn about consistency. Consistency is essential, no matter what you’re doing, because it sets you in the good habits you need to build to achieve your goals. I also talk about why goals are so difficult for people to achieve and how you can start avoiding these traps.
You might find that you’re more committed to reaching one type of goal than others. For example, career goals come easily to you, but your health goals always stay out of reach. A lot of this might come down to whether or not we actually believe we can achieve our goals.
But inevitably, some of us won’t reach our goals, and that’s okay. It’s more important to think about what we achieved on the way to our goals, who we became in the process of working towards the goal, and really just reframe our mindset about goals.
To reach our health goals, we need to be specific about what the goal will look like. Why do you want to reach it? Think about every aspect of your goal so you’re perfectly clear about what you’re trying to achieve.
You also need to get in touch with your future self. They’ve already achieved your goal – what did they do to get to where they are? You might also find that you ask yourself this often while on the way to achieving your health goals. What would your future self do? You can name her, as well, so you’re even more connected.
I also talk about why achieving your health goals actually takes a certain amount of detachment from the outcome. It might sound counterintuitive, but it works. And finally, there might come a time your end goal isn’t serving you anymore. If this happens, it could be time to reassess what your goals are and what they should be.
What are your 2020 goals? Are your values aligned with what God wants from you? Do you feel like you deserve to reach your goals? Let me know in the comments below!
