Today I have a couple more questions to ask you.
- What does the excitement of starting something new feel like?
- What are your intentions on day 1 of starting something new?
I can only tell you my answers to those questions, but perhaps it may give you a little insight to helping you stick to your plan.
- Starting something new feels awesome! I am excited when I have a new project lined up and planned out.
- My intentions are to finish the project!
For me, today is no different from New Year's Day, the typical day to start some kind of new workout program or healthy resolution. I can answer those questions the same way every day. But somewhere along the way, we get distracted and we loose focus. We get caught up in paying our bills or the circumstances of our life. I get it... believe me, I get it!
My suggestion is that every day be New Year's Day! Feel enthused at your plan for the day and focus on your intentions with excitement! Today is all you have. Don't worry that you missed yesterdays workout, or fell of the eating plan. You didn't worry about it on New Year's Day after all that holiday eating and your failure last year to get in better shape. Why are you discouraged today?
Health and Happiness!
Sincerely,
Bill
