MORE As: You are self motivated when you have goals. If you have goals, you feel more at ease and feel more successful. Make a few goals for your health for March. Take a few minutes to write down your steps to achieve these goals and you will succeed.
MORE Bs: You are motivated as long as you have 1 partner or confidant to hold you accountable. You set your own goals but having that person to talk to about it really helps. Make your healthy goals for March and share them with someone who will ask you about them occasionally. Check in with them at least one time per week.
MORE Cs: You need to talk to a few friends or family members for advise on how to achieve your big life goals. Those that are the closest to you need to have a role in your life/projects. You don’t need a group everywhere you go but you need to know that group will help you in the big areas of your life. Make your healthy goals for March with your family/friends. Make sure everyone knows what you need from them. Maybe give each of them a copy of your goals. Make sure you check in with them a few days per week.
MORE Ds: You not only need your family/friends to help you determine your big goals and how to achieve them. You also excel in groups throughout your day. If you volunteer at school, you are probably a part of PTA. When you do your errands, you enjoy the company of friends. You prefer being around people than being alone. Make your healthy goals with EVERYONE. Your family and friends should have a role and be your support but make sure you join a gym that has group classes; workout with more than 1-2 friends to avoid working out alone. Join a challenge online or at your gym or work.
