More Tips For Starting The New Year Off On The Right Foot
Prioritizing Your Goals
For 2017 to really be a success for you, you must prioritize changing the top items that are most important to you. Do not focus on the least important ones first. This technique can be counterproductive. By focusing on the most important first, you’ll be able to better dictate how much time and attention you’ll be able to give towards all of your goals. Furthermore, some of things that you’ll want to improve on will have a domino effect. So conquering the major ones first will help you achieve the smaller ones as you go along.
Hold Yourself Accountable
You’ll never follow through without accountability. That means that you’ll need support. Find a friend or family member to really be there for you through the good and bad times. You’ll have some ups and downs on your 2017 journey to greatness, having someone there who has your back will help you along the way. They’ll be your motivation when you don’t want to go run those extra miles, or push you to power through those last few pull-ups. You also have to hold yourself accountable and commit to your goals. If you’re serious about change, you’ll have to face those hard choice head on.
Progress Tracking
Most people fail from hitting their goals because they really don’t understand how to properly track their progress. This makes them give up because they’re not seeing the results they expected. That being said, how can a person accurately see their desired results without knowing how to track their progress? It’s vastly important to have a starting point. You have to be able to go back to your staring data to see how your improvements are tracking. Some of your goals will take longer than others, so being able to track even the small changes will be beneficial to your continued momentum. And that’s your goal, to always be moving forward toward finishing your goals.
We hope these last two posts will help jump-start your new year. If you’re looking for a new challenge in martial arts in 2017, keep reading to learn how Gracie Raleigh can help you.
