So, you’ve had a difficult first few weeks of the year sticking with your goals? Here’s the good news. Today is a great day to start over and rededicate yourself to those small, simple and healthy lifestyle changes you decided you wanted to make at the beginning of the year.

So what’s it going to be? Will you give up after only 17 days or give yourself a mulligan and start fresh from here? You can decide. Let me know how it goes.

Remember, you don’t have to change everything at once. Small, consistent changes can lead to greater successes. Pick something to focus on and go for it

Make this Monday a healthy one!

Today is a great day to start thinking about things you can improve as far as your exercise and eating habits go. You don’t have to change everything all at once, but making just one small change can go a long way.

Write one thing down today that you can do better. Just one thing. Feel free to share it.

“When the motivation to change comes from within, based on heartfelt desires, rather than via external sources, like a financial incentive or urging one’s spouse or parent, the likelihood of sustained success is dramatically improved.”

— Margaret Moore, ACSM’s Certified News, April-June 2010, Volume 20; Issue 2

The desire to change has to come from you.  No one can force you to make changes to improve your health.  Encouragement from loved ones, trainers, friends can certainly help, but if you don’t have the desire you won’t see the success you want, or it will only be short-lived.
