What are the Most Popular New Year's Resolutions? I don't know why saying that keeps me on track, but it does because to be honest I have days when I don't feel like going to the gym for my session, but I just repeat "I am strong, healthy and fit" and I do it anyway. I read some personal development books(including The Magic which again breaks down things to daily 'tasks'), listened to some Soundcloud broadcasts (usually while on the treadmill) and every day I told myself that I was strong, healthy and fit.Īffirmations were something that I had never given much credence before, but they are a great way to start the day and my first affirmation of the day everyday is "I am strong, healthy and fit". Personal development can mean something different to everyone and it's all about finding what works for you. I haven't actually met my goal weight, but I feel fantastic, I am stronger, healthier and fitter so in my mind my resolution was successful.Ī big part of doing this was setting little goals along the way and doing personal development. Off to the gym I started going and I even had fun participating in Steptember with my workmates. I had decided that I wanted to lose half my goal weight by my birthday - which I did before working on building my strength during the second half of the year. So I basically went by the principles of the plan during the week and ate what I wanted on the weekend.
I wasn't sure how I would feel on it, but I knew I had to start with something and it was only for 30 days! It was amazing so I took a week off at the beginning of February to celebrate my 5th wedding anniversary and then undertook another 30 days to healthy living plan.Īll told I did the plan 5 times and in between I took an 80/20 approach which is what is recommended. Step one was taking Arbonne's 30 days to healthy living and beyond starting on January 1st. I decided I wanted to lose weight, feel better, get fitter and feel stronger - basically I wanted to be a healthier me. Last year I made a resolution and actually kept it - that's because of two things - I broke down the goals and I also did personal development. This is a question that talk shows ask psychologists every year and basically it's because people make these lofty resolutions without making realistic plans for achieving them. Did you know that 80% of New Year's Resolutions fail within the first 6 weeks of the year? Knowing this why is it that so many of us continue to make resolutions each year? I think it's because we live in hope that we can become healthier, become better off and either of these will make us happy.
