If you’ve never been able to stick to a workout program or diet before let me drop a bomb here for a minute…it’s not because you suck 😱
It’s not because you’re a terrible woman, or a failure,or because you’re destined to always have a spare tire around your tummy. Nope. 🙅🏼♀️
👉🏼 The truth? It’s because the new lifestyle habits you’re trying to build, don’t check all of these 4 boxes:
1️⃣ It’s gotta be SIMPLE 👏🏼
If you want to read more often, start with a small goal of reading 5-10 pages a few days per week. Once that’s easy peasy, bump it up to maybe reading 5-10 pages daily and scale upwards from there. A tiny task that fits with your schedule still moves the needle forward. 10 minutes of reading is a lot more simple to fit in your schedule than 1 hour of reading.
2️⃣ It has to be OBVIOUS 🙋🏼♀️
Instead of saying “I want to have a better relationship”, set aside a time + place to work on your relationship, ie: Saturdays at 4pm we’re going to spend at least 2 hours of quality time together and reconnecting to make our relationship stronger. Specifics are KEY--grey areas don’t produce results.
3️⃣ But don’t forget; really ATTRACTIVE 😍
If you’re the biggest anti-morning person on the planet--STOP telling yourself to wake up at 5:30 to hit the gym before work. If you want to make a forever change, lean in to your personality and maybe hit the gym on your lunch break, so it’s enticing instead of nightmare material.
4️⃣ And super SATISFYING 🤤
Celebrate yourself when you follow through! If your goal is to live a healthier lifestyle, some do this by having cheat meals, buying new workout clothes, or my personal favorite post training--a hot bath to give my muscles some TLC. Following through is a big deal--ACT LIKE IT!
Simple. Obvious. Attractive. Satisfying. Got those on lock? Then success is to follow ✨🌈☀️
