We don't love New Year's Resolutions, but it's that time of year. A lot of people are making resolutions, like: I'm going to get in shape, I'm going to eat better, I'm going to get control over my finances. Well, the ideas and intentions are good, but resolutions don't really set you up for success. In this episode, Tami will teach you how to create the foundation that you need, the support that you need, and the structure that is needed in your life to allow change to happen, and to happen easily.
Key Points
- Why do so many of us fail at New Year's Resolutions, even when we are desperate to see these positive changes in our lives?
- Goal setting is also a challenge, especially for those of us with fibromyalgia. Learn why even S.M.A.R.T. goals (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Time-oriented) are not enough to bring you success.
- Find out Tami's super simple secret to make reaching your goals automatic.
- Set your life up in a way that it becomes easier to do the thing, than to not do the thing.
