Dylan Armajani: Run Past Your Goals and Find Yourself
'I Have 20 Times The Energy I Used To Have'
Identify 10 small changes today
Posted on Mar 16th 2008 7:00AM by Jacki DonaldsonJust heard a weight loss recommendation that goes like this: Jot down 10 small changes you can begin making today.
It's not all about big sweeping changes. The little ones add up too. Often, they are easier to achieve. If weight loss isn't your thing, identify 10 changes related to fitness, nutrition, healthy living, or connecting with others. Let your changes span all of these topics, if you'd like. Here are mine.
1. Drink more water. I don't get enough.
2. Eat less after dinner. I don't need the extra calories.
3. Eat out less. Staying home is healthier and cheaper.
4. Save. I want to be financially fit.
5. Stretch more. I work out every day. I rarely stretch.
6. Rest more. I work out every day. I need more rest.
7. Breathe more. I will take more deep breaths to soothe my soul.
8. Work on my abs. They are weak.
9. Validate. I will validate my kids' emotions, even the ones that drive me bonkers.
10. Stay calm. I will remain calm when people around me are not.
