How did you like that video series? I LOVE Zig Ziglar, he is such a phenomenal speaker! Even though he covered a whole lot of material, it all comes down to this: the best thing that you could do for your health is to start setting some goals for yourself. Maybe you want to lose some weight, or maybe you want to become more flexible. Here are the main keys from Zig Ziglar's speech:
1) Write your goal down: When you do this step, BE SPECIFIC. Clarity is so key when you want to achieve a goal. For example, if you want to lose weight, be sure to say EXACTLY how much you want to weigh.
2) Give yourself a time limit: Make sure that your time limit is something that will challenge you. And most importantly, DON'T BEAT YOURSELF UP IF YOU MISS YOUR GOAL! If you happen to miss, it's not the end of the world! Simply give yourself an extension :)
3) List all of the obstacles that you might have: This is really important because it will ensure that you are prepared for the things that might get in your way. If you are prepared to face them, the odds are higher that you will overcome them.
4) Find the people, organizations, and groups that you need to work with: For instance, if you wanted to increase your fitness level, you may want to join a gym. It's also important for you to surround yourself with people who are going to support you in hitting your goal! Without that support, it can be all to easy to lose motivation.
5) Make a plan of action
6) Identify how you will benefit once you achieve your goal: Make sure that you come up with LOTS of different benefits! The more benefits that you have, the higher the chance you will follow through to hit your goal.
This video unfortunately does not talk enough about exactly how to set a goal. If you do not set your goal properly, your odds of success are considerably lower. If you would like to go through a free course on goal setting, join the Simply Health Club before November 22nd and I will make sure that you get this coaching.
