Write the Right Kind of Goals

Goal #1: Feel better about myself in all ways.

Goal #2: Enjoy my life and family more.

Goal #3: Do the things I want to do without feeling self-conscious.

I want to be healthier. I think that is going to be key in reaching my goals.

I did not mention health in my goals, but better health and increased fitness will be essential.

I have been through this before.

I know the basics of what I need to do to get there.

The implementation is always the key difficulty.

Notice that nowhere in my goals do I mention diet, weight, exercise.

I will have to address those issues to reach my goals, but they are not my goals.

My goals are a bit loftier and more holistic.

It is time to state the facts in black and white, no longer hide any of it, be vulnerable.
