It’s a new year and a new decade, and resolutions are being made everywhere by those who want to see some improvements in their health and wellbeing. But sometimes those resolutions don’t stick. In fact, 92% of resolutions fail, but what is the best way to make sure those plans don’t slip, and that we stick to our health goals for the year?

In this episode, Angela talks to Colin Hiles, one of the top mind-set coaches on the planet, who over the last twenty-three years has coached thousands of people to achieve their optimal state of mind, and how to get the best out of themselves and gain mental toughness.

Colin and Angels discuss the art of goal-setting, the seven forces of influence that you need to master, how to use Colin’s Bullseye method and much more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• When we are trying to visualise the things we can do using our mind, it causes us to reconsider our limitations, and often push ourselves that much further. 
• We often make promises to ourselves in terms of goal-setting, but we are also often guilty of breaking those promises in search of quick-fixes. It’s about learning about the small hinges that swing the big doors that make real change.
• The seven forces of influence you need to master are:
• M - Motivation
• A - Action
• S - Skills
• T - Tribe
• E - Example
• R - Rewards/Consequences
• S - Space
• If you want to break through to a new level of income, you really need to associate more with people who are already there. Mind-set is contagious. By choosing your “tribe” carefully, you’ll absorb other more beneficial mind-sets.
• We’re not aware of so much that we’re doing in our day-to-day lives. We are constantly being triggered by the environment and are often not consciously aware that this is so. 
• In the business world deadlines are everywhere and are a main driving factor of productivity. In our personal lives, we tend not set deadlines, but they can be a hugely effective tool, no matter how small, in driving our personal development. 
• The subconscious thinks in images, not words. When we visualise our goals, we are letting our brains know, in a far more effective way, that this is the result we hope to attain. Visualisation is extraordinarily powerful.
• Finding our “why” is crucial to achieving our goals. Colin identifies “need”, “me” and “we” as the three types of goals most typical. 
• Need - “I need to lose weight for a wedding”
• Me - “Achieving this goal will make me feel proud”
• We - The unstoppable goals that affect the greater good
• Colin’s Big Four:
• Health - Mind, body and spirit
• Wealth - Career and the ways in which wealth is created
• Love - Relationships
• Lifestyle - How wealth is spent in the time we have
• We must endeavour to think from our goals, instead of thinking of our goals. Put yourself there and imagine what it’s like to have achieved it already. Replicate the feeling of having achieved it already. Think in images.
