Every beginning of the year we set ourselves and we set ourselves great challenges. Some we discard as soon as we write or think about them. Others, on the contrary, we accept and make our own even if they are difficult. However, when we have a week into the new year ... doubt assails us. Those who decided to quit smoking have not yet done so "because until January 6 ... with so many social and family events ... I'll start after Reyes." And it happens on January 6 and the uphill begins to take on the challenge and meet your goals.
Those who decided to exercise and change their diet have not yet done so "because until January 6 ... there are still days to eat sweets." And keep eating excessively. And it happens on January 6 and there is still so much food in the fridge that starting the challenge becomes the challenge itself.
And so we could continue with a long list of proposals, all of them conditional on January 6, the date that seems to define the beginning of our goals..
Assuming that your goals are clear, that you are clear about your "what" you "because", you "what for"… You couldn't reach your goals years ago. How are you going to do it this time? Defined the "what", defined the "why" and defined the "for what", the key is to define a good "how to".
One of the problems we face when it comes to meeting our goals is that we end up putting them off. Procrastination and procrastination can become behavior, perhaps to avoid facing potential failure (If you consider your challenge difficult and you believe that you may not achieve it, if you do not do it you will not face a failure ...), or perhaps because you want to start achieve your goal perfectly (which is unlikely… if I intend to quit smoking, I will start by smoking less, if I intend to exercise I will start by doing something, if I intend to diet or lose weight I will not start drastically, do not you think?) The important thing is to start, and "make the way while walking" as the saying goes.
Think of the great athletes or famous actors, none of them started from fame. Adopt this concept in your challenge, set yourself a small goal every day. Achieving this small goal every day, marking it in writing will make you feel "capable" and it will motivate you to reach the greater goal. In addition, it will serve you in the future when you consider achieving greater challenges in this or other areas..
Have a real-time timeline of your progress, it will help you to see that if once you have achieved it you can do it again.
Therefore, prepare your "roadmap": in it you not only have to mark what, when and how you are going to do it, but also you have to break it down to the maximum in small steps. Each step will inject motivation for the next.
"I want to exercise but there is no way to get past a week. A week, I just find it difficult to get out."
Well, my proposal is simple: that first week make it easy, very easy. So easy that you want to get to the second one. For example, if you have decided to go for a walk, make a very easy roadmap to follow:
| MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY | SATURDAY | SUNDAY |
| fifteen ' | fifteen' | fifteen' | twenty' | twenty' | fifteen' | (10 ') |
If the weekend is not good for time, reduce your dedication to exercise, but do not eliminate it completely.
Do not expect to go for an hour walk from day one because you will probably not be physically used to it, nor will your schedule easily adapt to a drastic change.
From this first week, and wanting to increase your times for the second, little by little and always gradually, increase your dedication times exercise, learning a new language, smoking less ... . Manage your time wisely. Plan. King concept par excellence. Planning is not listing, it is not making a list. Planning consciously, strategically is a much deeper, more complex concept. It is immersing yourself in your desire, breaking it down, breaking it down and committing yourself to it, from the action.
Sequence to "not die trying" and "survive my goals":
Allowing yourself all the details that require meeting your goal is important. It is important that you indicate the small steps necessary to climb, but also the difficulties that you will find in your ascent. What do I have going for me? What plays against me? Environment? Friendships? Job? Family? This is, Facilitating elements vs impeding elements
If you allow yourself to imagine the obstacles that can slow down your goal, you can find resources with which to combat them. And not only that, you will also feel more security, it will increase your sense of power because your security in fighting obstacles will be greater..
Define the exact moment (day and time) well and commit to it. The process of putting yourself into action must contemplate an important concept, the perseverance. It's not enough to put yourself into action and that's it. Acting means being able to keep your will constant, keep your perseverance in your goal, being aware of what you have in your favor and what is not. Those resources that will help you and the will you need to apply remembering your what, you because and you what for.
Remember that for a new habit, a new custom to be established in our behavior, we need 21 days. 21 days of strategic and conscious action. 21 days of action with a conscience. If you lose focus, if you lose your motivation, if you "do to do" you will do little. Remind yourself what for you do.
Thus, our roadmap is defined as follows:
