Making Plans and Completing Tasks

So many of us make plans that don't always come to fruition (this is no surprise). However, there are various ways to stop this cycle of non-commitment and start learning how to make a plan and follow through with it.

Most of us, if not all of us, practice this in our daily life with our work.  We come to work, we are assigned tasks, and we complete those tasks.  If we don't, this could mean that we fall behind and ultimately could end up losing our source of income.  You learn how to manage your daily responsibilities because you WANT to be successful.  We want to receive accolades for the work we produce.  Its almost a "need" to receive praise from our supervisor.  The same can be attributed to the achievements in our personal life.

Clearly, at times we put too much on our plates and end up losing sight.  A plan should be something that is measurable and attainable, for YOU.  Look at the variables in your life.  Allow yourself to ease into the new plan, but remember that you have set your sights on an outcome.  There is nothing more exhilarating than making it to the end of your "to-do" list.  In this case, your "to-do" list is about you and how to become more involved in your health and well being.  Additionally the well being of your family.

Here's an idea for today - Set up a goal at Healthper.com.  Give yourself no more than 14 days to complete this goal.  Make it something easy to start.  For example, try removing any sugar cereals from your kids (and your) diet and replace it with whole grain cereal with and/or low fat yogurt and fresh fruit.  Measure how your family feels in 2 weeks and Log it at www.healthper.com.  We look forward to hearing from you!
