Setting up Successful Fitness Goals for 2012
How to create attainable fitness goals for a great new year.
Setting goals that you need to achieve can be stressful, especially if you don’t know where to start. For you to be able to achieve your goals effectively, it’s important to know how to properly set them. An unclear goal is a set-up for failure, but setting them up correctly will help you achieve all you set your mind to.
First, identify what it is you’d like to accomplish, keeping in mind potential barriers or obstacles such as your career, family, and your finances. Make sure that your goals are within reach given any and all constraints. It’s ok if these things present challenges, but for example – if you are trying to accomplish something that requires a lot of money, then you need to be financially capable to be able to achieve your goal. That is why considering these things would be ideal.
Second, determine that this goal is your ideal, that it is something you deeply wish to accomplish. You also need to think of the benefits that will bring you, and as well as the people around you. Consider a goal to get fit and lose weight in the new year. Better nutrition and better fitness will have a significant impact upon your health and longevity and will not only benefit you, but your family as well. Make sure however , that you set goals for yourself, and not for other people.
