The 3 Goals That Really Matter
When you think of “health and fitness goals” you probably envision counting calories and steps, grueling workouts, depriving yourself of the things you love (like chocolate and wine). And while you do need to track your efforts to make progress with your health and fitness, not every choice should be about restriction or punishment. You actually need goals that are bigger than “losing weight” or “getting in shape”. You need to Think Big Picture!
No, it’s not about fitting into your “skinny” jeans, meditating endlessly or being able to chug water like a champ (one of my specialties). The goals I’m talking about are bigger than that, and are the very essence of why we are in these bodies in the first place.
Each and every day you’re going to have to make dozens of decisions that will help you follow through with your goals or cause you to abandon them. Keep this in mind as you face challenges each day, and know that you have the power to make your next choice a great one! Once you decide that these 3 things matter more than your indulgences or your to-do list, everything else will fall into place.
The 3 Goals that REALLY matter aren’t ones you’ll find posted on the wall of the gym. They are not usually listed on the covers of books and magazines. They are not complicated or revolutionary, but they are extremely important. If you aren’t actively working towards these 3 things – you’re missing out on life!
