2 quick moves to reset focus
Soooooo.... those new year goals and resolutions are falling off and for some, falling off quickly. Our brains have a way of trying to talk us out of things that may seem a little “uncomfortable”... ESPECIALLY the moment right before we’re about to do something that pushes us out of our comfort zone or routine. Where we once saw possibilities, our thoughts shift into an alternative reality with limitations and excuses.
Making time to show up is the FIRST STEP to honor the commitment you made to yourself and that worked for the first 30-40 days of the new year, but now our old habits are starting to creep back in. What cause this???
💥 not a big enough why
💥played small
💥didn’t change environment enough (this is important to stay focused daily)
💥 not saying no enough ( focusing on your big picture and saving your wants for last)
💥 no accountability
💥 wasn’t mentally prepared
how many of these 👆🏾 Did you experience?
what to do next??? Don’t panic, and don’t Change your goal or goals! It’s time to just change the way of getting there!
1️⃣ 💥get accountability💥 and involved in a support group now! Realizing many people are on the same path and experiencing the same issues and struggles. Getting the professional accountability keeping you uncomfortable and growing, but allowing you to express your obstacles and having a plan of action!
2️⃣ 💥plan an event💥 this is my favorite! When o feel like I’m losing focus, or lacking motivation, I’m planning my next break! This can be as small as a date night, ladies night, guys trip, or as big as a getaway, family vacation, a makeover, or a big purchase! This will give you something to look forward to, and gauging progress along the way.
For goals to be reach, they need to get you and keep you uncomfortable, they need to be realistic, measurable, and within a time frame.
I have an amazing opportunity to work with myself and an amazing support group starting March 17th for 6 weeks! Re-gaining focus, motivation, and working toward your big event that will be scheduled at the end of the 6 weeks. Learn more about my LBD project (Little Black Dress)
