Have you set your goals?

Okay, here is some food for thought as you set your 3 month and 6 month goals:

Having a goal that's too easy is not a motivating force. Hard goals are more motivating than easy goals, because it's much more of an accomplishment to achieve something that you have to work for.

However, it is important to strike an appropriate balance between a challenging goal and a realistic goal. Setting a goal that you'll fail to achieve is possibly more de-motivating than setting a goal that's too easy. The need for success and achievement is strong, therefore people are best motivated by challenging, but realistic, goals.

Lastly, I want you all to think outside your own self-image. Let go of any past negative thoughts or feelings. For example, if you were a lazy teenager who did not like to workout and loved eating candy, forget it - let it all go. Those old identities are not serving you in the present, and they certainly aren't going to help you achieve your goals. If you let go of old conceptions, it opens your mind to a whole world of possibilities. What we believe about ourselves dictates the way we interact in the world. It is imperative that you let go of the past in order to re-create yourself in the present. Think outside the box!!!
