HOW TO ACHIEVE HEALTH GOALS

Everyone wants to be healthy and would like to enjoy the benefits of a healthy body. Many times, we talk ourselves out of goals because of obstacles or the idea that goals must be achieved in a certain way. For me when challenges and doubts arise, I will change my approach. The point is that there are many paths to getting to our goal, and sometimes you have to try different routes. Once you have settled on a goal, make sure it’s smart. The intelligent approaches should clearly define your goals and should be able to achieve them.

Be Specific: When setting specific goals, make sure the goal motivates you. Goals need to be clear and detailed.

Measurable: writing down your goal weekly monthly and year will make your goal real. When you see it every day, you have no excuse to not pursue it. If you don’t have the means to measure a goal, it’s hard to know when you met it.

Attainable: When you are creating your goals, make sure they are attainable and possible to achieve. If you set unrealistic goals, your confidence will be ruined and you will have no desire to achieve that goal.

Relevant: The goals should go in the direction you want your life to go in, and this will also help to keep you focused. It has to have a meaning, or you might find it hard to stick to.

Time-bound: Goals need a deadline so that you want to achieve your goal in a timely manner. Make sure you give yourself enough time.

Overcome obstacles: Many times, I talk myself out of goals because of obstacles or the idea that goals must be achieved in a certain way.

Here are some tips I will give you to stay focused. Positive feedback is a reward in itself, so share your accomplishments with friends and family member or on social media. Monitor your progress set up daily or weekly reminders, or ask a friend or family member to check in with how you’re doing. Use visual reminders: Hold a picture in constant view of your target, like a holiday destination.

My First Blog Post

Be yourself; Everyone else is already taken.
— Oscar Wilde.

This is the first post on my new blog. I’m just getting this new blog going, so stay tuned for more. Subscribe below to get notified when I post new updates.

Introduce Yourself (Example Post)

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
What topics do you think you’ll write about?
Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
