Small actions

I’m not the biggest fan of goals; I’ve found them limiting and set up for failure in the past for myself personally, so I’m limiting my “goal-setting” and focusing on doing something I love. Rather than goals, I’m just setting up some small action steps to take over the coming month. I’m hoping for a good result, whatever that may be.

They are:

• Make a healthy lunch the night before and pack it with snacks 2-3 times a week
• Sleep earlier: aiming for 10 - 10:30 on work nights
• No carbs at breakfast or lunch on weekdays
• Write a blogpost or journal everyday (I use the Day One app)

These mainly focus on my health - which is my first and most important priority. I hope after a month these will seem a bit more “normal” to me and help me adjust my lifestyle to suit a busy and hectic work schedule. Already I have adjusted some small changes in the past, such as drinking more water (I have a wonderful Therma S’well bottle which I adore) and I’ve learnt healthy eating habits from people around me. But of course with that came a lot of failure and it’s important not to let that hold you back.
