| Hi Friend,
Thanks for being a loyal email subscriber. We appreciate hearing from you. Let us know if you ever have any questions.
I hope you have an awesome week this week!
What I want to talk to you about is setting goals for yourself.

| Setting goals will enable you to eliminate the distractions in your life and help you to focus on the really important things. By knowing exactly what you want, you are able to concentrate on specific areas with more accountability and focus. Goals allow you to get more things done so you can achieve more. Who doesn't want to achieve more?
I like to take one large goal and break it into smaller, more attainable "mini-goals". This will give you the direction you need if you get off track. Goals create steps. The old saying goes, "How do we eat an elephant?" Answer: One bite at a time. No matter what task we have to tackle, we often can't do it all at once. We can, however take small steps toward completing the task.
Always, always, always write down your goals! Set small, measurable, and attainable goals. Focus on getting the result that you want. Why did you set this goal? Why is it important to you? Make a commitment to yourself, and then take action with your end result in mind. Use your time wisely and work hard. Don't waste your valuable time and energy with filler.
Tell everyone you know about your goal. You have probably heard this a hundred times, but it really works. This will create accountability, and the more accountability, the more likely you are to succeed!
One more thing...."Today, not tomorrow" is critical. Don't put anything off until tomorrow...it will never get done. Besides, if it is really important to you, then why would you wait? Do it TODAY!

What is your Goal?
Define it. What do you really want? Be Specific.
My Goal:___________________________________________________
Now, decide what you need to do to achieve it (list 3 plans of action) 1.______________________________________________________________________ 2.______________________________________________________________________ 3.______________________________________________________________________
What hasn't worked in the past (list them)?
1.______________________________________________________________________ 2.______________________________________________________________________ 3.______________________________________________________________________
What you will do different this time (list a couple)
1.______________________________________________________________________ 2.______________________________________________________________________ 3.______________________________________________________________________
Your Action Plan:
What is it?_______________________________________________________________
When are you starting it? ___________________________________________________
Why are you doing it?______________________________________________________
Who are you sharing it with?________________________________________________ What is your time frame (finish line)?_________________________________________
Hint: Don't use try or can't, use "will & can". Create positive words and actions!

| As you know, we need to rely on more than just willpower. A plan will help you establish your goals and continue to have more success like a snowball effect. Now that we have a plan, we want you to get a calendar and map out your plan. Here is an example...
- Add the date you going to start
- Add the day you plan to reach your goal
- Pick the days you're allowed to have a treat
- Pick & set your appointments to exercise
- Track the exercise
- Track your daily food intake
- Your hours of sleep
- Your water intake
- Pick the days you are going to measure or weigh yourself Add totals to the calendar month
It's that easy!
Success will come with a plan. Sit down, map out your action plan, and write it down in your schedule. Make it REALITY. How many times have you had the same New Year's Resolution? Now is the time to succeed. You can make that happen!
You can and will be successful with commitment and time! (This reaches out way beyond fitness- and you can apply this concept to ANY area of your life.)
We will leave you with this worksheet so you can come up with a clear plan. You may change it as needed, but if you don't start with something at all where do you go from here? If I told you to meet me at my house and said nothing else, how are you going to get there? Think about it.
Committed to Your Success,
