093: Tips for new years goals and resolutions

Hi friends! ’Tis the season for resolutions and goal setting, and I LOVE the excitement of a bright, shiny, new year. I’ll be sharing my goals and reflections next week on the blog, but for today’s podcast episode, I wanted to share some of my top tips for setting goals this year. I hope you’ll give this short episode a listen and THANK YOU so much for all of your support with the podcast and wonderful reviews - I appreciate it so so mucho.   093: Tips for new years goals and resolutions - Aim for SMART goals: specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and timely.  - Ask yourself “why” over and over again until you realize your true motivation between your goals.  - Choose something that makes you feel excited, or something that will benefit you somehow. - Create an action plan with specific benchmarks for your goal throughout the year. - ACT as if you’ve already achieved this goal. - Remind yourself of your top three goals each day and place these reminders in a visible spot. - Don’t be afraid to pivot as priorities and circumstances change throughout the year. If something doesn’t work out, think of it as FEEDBACK, not FAILURE.   Resources from this episode: Check out Lumen! This is the metabolism tracker I use and recommend.
