As we get right into the new year many of us start to have a bit of a reality shift in terms of what we want in life.
We realize that there are a few things in life that we want... but we haven't made a priority...
...YET!
If you're familiar with goal setting, you'll know how important it IS in achieving any goal whether it be getting six pack abs, losing weight or any other non-fitness related goal for that matter.
The process:
There are 3 easy steps to setting goals that work and here they are (these are definitely advisable for anyone wanting to get six pack abs)...
- Decide on your goal - make it something realistic, something achievable and something that you desire.
- Write down your goal in the present tense - For example, if you want to lose 10 pounds of fat write it like: "It is may 10th, 2011 and I have an awesome, toned body. I now weigh x-amount pounds and I feel awesome!"
- If you want to do this thing properly and make it heaps more motivating to reach your goal, take the time to find a picture which reflects your goal beautifully. For example, if you want 6 pack abs, find a picture of a guy (or gal) with a 6 pack and stick a pic of your face on it... Hang it somewhere you'll see it frequently and you're set.
Goal setting is not hard.
It can take a few minutes of your time, but millions around the world swear by it for getting real results.
I personally guarantee that setting a new years goal properly makes your goal HEAPS more achievable. It means at least you know what you want and you have a bit of motivation to get there.
Take the time to do it - set your new years goals now!
