How to Stop Dragging Yourself Through Your Goals
Jun 25, 2024
Ever set a weight loss goal that felt like something you had to drag yourself through?
And then, before you know it, found yourself quitting on it — yet again?
We’ve all been there. We set big “important” goals — but when it's time to take action, we
often fall short.
It starts with small things like:
● skipping a workout
● ordering a burger and fries when you were planning on getting a salad
● drinking that Diet Coke when you promised yourself you’d stick to water
And the list goes on…
Sure, all of these things might be fine once in a while. But when they become more than “once
in a while” — that’s when it becomes a challenge to consistently lose weight.
It could feel like you’re constantly playing tug-of-war with yourself…And it’s not a fun place to be in.
The good news is that there's a way out of this cycle.
It’s called: Values-Based Goal Setting (VBG)
Because when you set the right goal and have a realistic plan that fits your values (and life!) — it’s SO MUCH EASIER to stay on track.
So grab a piece of paper and a pen, because it’s time to go to work!
Step 1: What’s your big goal? What do you want to accomplish?
Example: Lose 20 pounds, get to a healthy body fat %, or lower your blood pressure to 120/80.
Step 2: Use the following prompts to help you align your goal with your values and personality to create the best route for YOU to get there.
- Make three columns on a piece of paper.
- Label the first column "I'm the kind of person who...",
- The second column "And it's important to me that...",
- And the third, "So I'd feel good about accomplishing..."
- Then, fill it out in a way that'll help you come up with a plan to achieve your goal!
See how this is a little different than setting normal goals?
It blends your personality with what matters to you…so you can carve out a path that fits who
you are.
Once you find your groove, it’s a matter of sticking to your plan, celebrating your small wins,
and reminding yourself WHY you set your goal!
If you find yourself struggling with this, I can help.
It’s like having someone in your corner who not only knows WHAT to do — but reminds you WHY you need to do it on days you feel like giving up.

Remember to...Take Care of You!
As a Functional Diagnostic Nutritional Practitioner, I run functional lab work to help identify HIDDEN stressors and dysfunctions that are downgrading health and creating or contributing to Metabolic Chaos™, which describes what's going on inside that is producing unwanted symptoms.
Once healing opportunities are identified through carefully selected labs and a thorough history, only then can individualized, time-honored natural protocols be recommended that will change how well the body functions. When improvements are made, true healing occurs.
I am opening up 5 coaching opportunities at the end of August, at the lowest cost possible.
I don't want you to miss this healing opportunity.
