Spring

Spring is a time of renewal after the long cold winter. The flowers and trees have new growth, and many of us are doing some type of spring cleaning. Spring is also a great time to reevaluate your goals and readjust.

Every year I make goals for myself, especially around health and wellness. Did you commit to lose weight and going to the gym three times per week or to be more mindful in what you consume?

This is a great time to review your plans and adjust accordingly so you can get back on track and be successful with your goals. Don’t give up, there are eight months left in the year to fulfil your personal goals.

Solicit assistance if your need to, get a trainer, or change the activity to something more manageable. Examples may include walking in your neighborhood a couple days per week, instead of going to the gym every day; or consuming your largest meal in the middle of the day; or reducing your caffeine intake to one cup per day instead of three.

Simplifying your goals can make a big difference. Whatever you need to do to adjust and make the goal easier to obtain, this is the time. This process may occur several times before the goal is realized.

It will be worth it in the long run so you can see your results and celebrate your wins. You can do it!!!
