BUST A MOVE MONDAY
"I've found that if I don't set goals and write them down, I lose sight of what I'm working for. Goal setting makes you more accountable to yourself. Short-term goals will boost your confidence, as well as help you achieve your long-term goals.
I always try to remember that when anything is being built — whether it's a house or a better body — it starts with a solid, firm foundation, and that's what I'm trying to create. My short-term goals include working out three times each week, eating a healthy meal once each day, walking an extra five minutes today. My long-term goals are usually stuff like: lose X pounds, or run/walk X miles without stopping.
If I mess up and, say, eat a tub of Ben and Jerry's ice cream (oh, Ben and Jerry are evil people!), I acknowledge that I'm not perfect. I might revise my short-term goals to include: Don't walk down the ice cream aisle at the grocery store. And then I get back on track and move on.
Remember, success starts with a thought that is then turned into words. And the words are turned into action. So go get those goals written down and start achieving your success!"
Life Is in the JourneyLife is in the journey, guys, not the destination, so do what you can and take it one day at a time. Go slow; do it right; make it permanent — then help out others who are where you were. I'm so psyched to have a great example of one member doing just that! Read on and get inspired:
