We are 30 days into our “90 Day Challenge.” Read on to learn a very important tool that will help you achieve success in reaching your goal.
KNOW YOUR WHY – What motivation do you need to stay committed to achieving your goal? Why will you stick with your action plan?
Here are the top three tips to keep you motivated:
-1- Benefits – Open your journal and reread your goal. Next, write out a list of benefits you experience now and once you’ve achieved your goal. Be specific and detailed.
-2- Reward Yourself – This technique can be a great motivator. It worked for our kids and it can work for us now. Reward yourself for your small achievements, recognize your effort and then treat yourself to a reward.
Choose something meaningful. For example, don’t choose a big ice cream cone when you are trying to loose weight, instead save up for a healthy massage.
-3- Connect with your team to stay motivated, keep you on track. Accept both their encouragement and criticism when you need it.
Here is great article to help you write out your benefits.
