My Actifit Activity Log [11.10.2018] S.M.A.R.[T]. GOALS
It seems, with tomorrow being the last day of the #AutomaticWin Step Challenge, to be the perfect time to write about the last letter of our S.M.A.R.[T]. GOAL series! Why is that?! Because the [T] stands for, "Timed" that's why!
If your goals don't have a timed aspect then there isn't really any sense of urgency in their ultimate atainment now is there... It's the aspect of time that grounds a goal in reality. If you set a goal, "to buy a gym membership and loose weight... whenever you felt like it..." YOU WOULD NEVER ACTUALLY SHEAD THAT EXCESS WEIGHT... EVER! All that's going to happen is NOTHING MUCH EVER NEVER.
Here's another thing people setting off on the pursuit of their goals don't often consider. When you set a goal you unlock your hidden potential. By setting a goal with a time factor you get to cash in on what's called THE 80-20 RULE.
Maybe you have heard of it?
When you set a deadline for yourself you will find that 80% of your results will show up in the last 20% of the time you set... So if you end up NOT setting a deadline for your goals, in true S.M.A.R.[T]. GOAL fasion, you end up on missing out on the benifits inhearently lying dorment. Cash in on THE 80-20 RULE by setting a deadline for yourself. Hold yourself to it. Make REAL results REAL!
Imagine with me an olympian... who decides NOT to set a deadline for their training. Do you think when 4 years ticks around that they will be ready to bring the best possible version of themselves to the Olymipic Games?
There is always a price for success. Results never come by sitting on the couch and eating heaps of grandmas cookies. Nope! Not gonna happen... No matter how you look at it the results you desire are waiting for you... But they are waiting expecatnely with work cloths on!
In the glow of their promise for a better future there is also the blood, mud, sweat, and tears! Time ticks on because us humans are like arrows. We are ment to move forward through time. We are ment to hit the targets we aim at!
So! You CAN do it. Yeah. YOU!
Let's recap... S.M.A.R.T. GOALS stands for
[S]pecific
[M]easurable
[A]ction
[R]ealistic
[T]imed
Imagine with me... The day when you finnally arrive. You attain the health and fitness goals you envisioned and reached for. I've been there many times in my lifetime. I call these moments fitness anchor points. And here's the thing... It's your life... but that doesn't mean you want to take a lifetime to reach your goals. Your never going to regret going for it! In fact, if your like me, your going to wonder why you didn't go after it sooner! Imagine what your best possible self would look and feel like? Don't you want to experience that in your lifetime? Time is going to tick away anyway...Right? Why not strike off in the direction YOU set for yourself? It's your choice and no one else's. So! What do you think? Are you going to set your S.M.A.R.T. GOALS and make it happen?
Hi everyone!
Here we are! It's the weekend and the home stretch for the current #AutomaticWin Step Challenge! Tomorrow is the last day! I'm so excited that you all have embraced this Step Challenge with such dedication and drive! I couldn't ask for better people to do this weeks steps with! Thank you everyone!
Before this challenge concludes a word.
It's time to finish with sTyLe everyone! You may be massive steps away from leading this weeks pack! (The competition definetly showed up didn't they!) But this was never about besting everyone right? (Maybe for some of you it was! hahaha!) Sure it's fun when your winning and on top! But honest! This was about you besting yourself and doing your personal best wasn't it?!
So! Keep on pushing out your own personal bests everyone! And remember! Anyone getting out there and making an #AutomaticWin happen has already won! Do your absolute best! Look out for each other and stay safe!
Here's todays #AutomaticWin!
Meet you all back here tomorrow everyone!
