It happens to the best of us. We see this frequently in our one on one sessions and in our personal lives. . . we commit to a new health habit and it doesn’t stick.
Whether it’s because work got crazy or everybody in your family got sick (or both), falling off track seems to be the rule more than the exception.
So if you’re finding yourself looking for motivation and better strategies to make your new habits stick, here are 3 strategies to try.
Ambitious goals are great, but they can make us feel like we’re always so far away from where we want to be. Big goals may look like:
However, if you found that you fell off track, you may not have gotten enough small wins to build motivation. Try a smaller goal to build momentum more easily:
Find two friends or acquaintances who are practicing the behaviors that you are trying to change and schedule time with them. For example, maybe you have a buddy who goes hunting, a friend who goes to yoga on Tuesdays, a friend who walks on lunch breaks.
Ask to accompany them on their next outing! Or, simply connect with them. . .their perspective and motivation may rub off on you.
Alternatively, choose an accountability buddy: ask a friend to message you in 2 weeks to check in on how your new habit is going.
These are the most common barriers in our way when it comes to making actual behavior change:
