Did you know that most people have already given up on their New Year’s Resolutions? Actually, studies show that only 8% of us see our New Year’s Resolutions through to the end. But, weight management and fitness have topped the charts as the most sought-after resolution goals for years. So, why have so many defaulted on these goals already?
The Problem:
The reason is because most goals are unrealistic. For example, some people may pledge to exercise every day of the week in 2018 but, in reality, they couldn’t fit in 1 day of exercise per week in 2017. Or, what about the person who says “I will lose the 20 pounds this year”, yet doesn’t have a set plan to lose it?
These goals, while ambitious and motivating at first, are not well-thought out or realistic based on that person’s habits. It’s common to see the new year as a turning point, but that can motivate some to reach too far.
TLS Tip:
Making smart resolutions are what will help you not only achieve your 2018 goals but stick to them. Making a plan to succeed helps. For example: “I will exercise 3 days per week before work on Tuesday-Thursday for 30 minutes” is a better plan than simply saying you’ll exercise 3 times per week.
Also a good example: “I will lose 20 pounds this year by journaling my food, following the TLS Rapid Results program and checking in with my coach weekly. I will use the TLS CORE and Trim Tea Supplements faithfully until I reach my goal.”
