Years ago, whenever I set goals, it took all my energy and will power just to follow through. It would deplete me of everything - my energy, my mood, my joy, my optimism. It took everything for me to get up and get started without just jumping off the bandwagon.
I would set goals hoping to find joy and optimism and connection when I had reached that goal. I believed Id only be happy once I saw a certain number on the scales, or I could back squat like a boss. Id push myself, and and beat myself up along the way. Some of the things I would say to myself were just awful. It was exhausting because it would take all my energy to get started and even more energy to start again when I had inevitably messed it all up, not followed through and self sabotaged in ways you wouldn’t even believe.
Now, after a shit load of inner work and dedication to mindset mastery - I know I have to start the process of setting goals WITH joy, optimism and connection, or not at all. What we do BEFORE we get started will ultimately dictate how successfully we follow through.
This episode explores the specific strategies that support Lena and Steve in not just setting goals and getting on track - but staying on track. It all begins with what you do BEFORE you begin.
