Nutrition and Lifestyle

Summary

People who are successful in making changes understand some basic concepts. Find out what motivates you and use that to maintain your focus. Some people track their progress in a journal and others reward themselves at specific milestones such as being able to swim 10 laps or losing 5 pounds. Change is a process that takes time. If you can stick to a new routine for 30 days, research has shown that your likelihood of continuing with that behavior is strong. Start slowly and don’t overwhelm yourself. Don’t be hard on yourself if you are not successful. Simply recommit to your goal and start again. Pick something easy to begin with so that you are successful right away. Choose something you have always wanted to do.
