It's less than 2 Weeks until the stroke of midnight brings in a new year and a chance for many to reflect and project where their paths should be moving. So with 10 days to make some decisions on where your life can take you, here are a few things to do each day to develop your goal!
Countdown:
Dec 22nd - Where do you see yourself in the next five years? Just like losing weight is a day by day process, the next step in your career path may need a year by year vision. Think about what your job looks like, your family, your home, your car, yourself.
Dec 23rd - Only two days left to holiday shop, but you need to think of yourself once in a while... Not talking about what gift to give your self, but taking time to reflect and project! You are almost seven days away from celebrating the New Year. Start to give yourself the gift of time and write down your first impulse or word. This will help you develop a plan for 2010. Dec 24th - It's about family and friends, love and cheer. Take many snapshots today not only with the camera but in your mind.
Dec. 25th - Take a deep breath and enjoy the sparkle of the holiday and how good it feels to see others happy.
Dec 26th - Regrouping and time to plan out 2010! You'll want your best foot forward and now is the day to decide your biggest goal for the year.... whether it's weight loss, regrouping with friends, or just putting yourself in the driver's seat to taking better care of yourself... make the decision today. Now write it down.
Dec. 27th - Now that you have a direction... make sure it has three components:
- Can be measured - Make sure you can have a way of measuring the success of your goal
- Realistic - Make sure it is achievable! There is only one of you and you still have to work, take care of others, and sleep.
- Specific - make sure they are clearly written and objective rather than subjective
Dec. 29th - Start writing out the plan. You know the goal and you know who can help you, so now write out a short plan. Even visualize the plan happening and what it will feel like you when reach it.Dec. 30th - Get it together! You might need a few things in place for your plan to succeed and don't forget a Plan B. Even the most successful projects have unexpected road bumps. But remember, they are only bumps and not blocks. You can do anything you put your mind to thinking--what the mind can conceive it can achieve.
Dec. 31st - Happy New Year! You are ready to start, have a great plan in place, and a team to help you make it happen. Go after it with all your strength and shoot to be a "10" in 2010. Lose 5 in 10 Program
If you start with a few small changes and lose 5 pounds a month in the upcoming year that would equal a "60" pound weight loss, approximately 6 dress sizes, and 12" on your waistline. If you have that to lose, more or less, than you can easily achieve that goal with my 5 for 10 program. Here's the simple formula:
1) Wear a pedometer and walk at least 10,000 steps every day.
2) Eat at least 5 servings of vegetables and fruits each day. 3) Take 10 minutes at the end of the day to write down five things you are grateful.
Walking 10,000 steps a day equals approximately 30,000-35,000 calories burned each month. That coupled with better eating habits and reducing stress will easily translate into your 5 pound or more weight loss.
Keep it simple and you simply will succeed!
