The Best Time To Take ACTION
How do you want to look and feel in 2023?
Do you want to be a better version of your current self?
What steps are you taking to get there?
In January’s newsletter we’re looking at goal setting and why it’s important to set your health and fitness goals, regardless if these goals change over the course of the year.
Over the years, I’ve worked with clients who set solid goals and with my support as their nutritionist and coach, we achieve them. However, this is a huge personal development journey for an individual. A few steps forward, some steps back etc.
This is completely normal, and it shouldn’t deject you from setting your health goals today. The most direct path to achieving the desired health outcome is to set a goal and then just take ACTION. This action is small steps in the right direction (not huge leaps) as smaller steps are more likely to make the changes sustainable in the long run.
Whilst for high achievers and professionals, a health goal may look like weight reduction, increased lean muscle, a structured diet, the reality is that it’s much deeper than this.
I’ve written on the importance of setting your key life priorities in this article, and in summary we bring to the surface that for many, better health is not a priority. The real priorities for many are in the realm of:
Feeling confident in your clothes, in your career and in your relationship.
Reducing overwhelmed with meal planning so that you can focus on more important tasks at home and work.
Having a structured diet so that you can see results from your training (otherwise why train so hard?).
In 2023, I challenge you to look at your new year’s resolutions and go deeper.
Here are a couple of tips on where to start:
List your 3 key life priorities today (read this article for further info).
List potential barriers and self-sabotaging behaviours (read this article for further info).
Eat well for your body, your training needs, work and family priorities. Do this consistently, not perfectly! See a specialist if this is an area you want to work on further.
Exercise consistently, not perfectly! (Mindful movement included (read this article for further info).
Make small, sustainable changes to your nutrition and fitness so that you can start to see the positive effect of these changes in your life priorities.
Understanding where you can start making changes towards bettering your overall health, may quickly start affecting the quality of your life and your work. ACTION is the key to your success.
Where will you start today?
Time to stop overtraining or reverting to old habits that "used to work to get back on track". It doesn't need to be this difficult.
Client intake is now open for the first half of the year. Want personalised coaching to reach your desired body composition goals?
My genius is coaching high achievers to get them from where they are now with their health and fitness (i.e. repetitive, unproductive, overtraining patterns), to where they want to be!
Without the overwhelm, mental loading and time wasting.
