Someday Will Never Come
A word I hear almost everyday that I feel is a huge road block for most people is “Someday”. People say it jokingly or out of frustration. The most common ways I hear it phrased are:
“I’ll get back to my high school weight someday”
“We’ll be rich someday”
“I’ll learn to cook someday”
“I’ll land my dream job someday”
“I’ll get into shape someday”
The list goes on and on. But you know what, that day will almost certainly never come. Not unless you change the way you think about what you want to do in life and how you are going to get it done.
The Universe Doesn’t Care About Your Dreams
I see a lot of websites going on about the “Law of Attraction” and having the universe fulfill your needs. That is all well and good but I honestly do not believe that any of that stuff will help you lose weight or become wealthy or improve your health.
Your life is in your own hands and the small decisions you make everyday will get you to where you want to be in life. But, Someday is not a place you can go or a date to have something achieved by.
How To Get To The Weight You Want
As is relates to weight loss there really is no secret. I mean you see programs everywhere telling you that they have a breakthrough method or a special formula that will make you lose weight. But I’d say 99% of them are crap, just total garbage.
The answer to the question “how do I lose weight” or my comment to people that say “Someday I’ll lose the weight” is this. Set a realistic date and hold yourself accountable to it. The rest you already know, burn more than you consume.
It All Starts With A Goal
Goal setting is such an important thing in not just losing weight but in every aspect of your life. I find it very sad that not enough people are doing it or if they are they’re setting goals that are honestly too unrealistic.
You can find out more about setting realistic goals at Setting a Weight Loss Goal. Remember that the key to being successful is to set a target date or a deadline.
I know I’m over simplifying things here but I without having a target to hit or a deadline to meet you will end up floating through life. Nothing will get accomplished and you’ll end up looking back and wonder what you’ve done with your life? I’m only 31 and I’ve done this more times than I care to admit already.
What are your thoughts? Do you have realistic attainable goals?
