Let's start off with a quick win. One important thing that you really have to grasp if you want to achieve your goals is learning the discipline of looking at a big goal and then breaking it down into the smallest unit possible whereby if you took some action, you'd make some progress.
For example, let's say you want to become healthier. You want to exercise more. Having a generalized goal, like I'm going to go to the gym three times a week for two hours at a time, work with a personal trainer, lose 40 pounds this year. That's too general. You probably will never achieve that.
However, if you break it down into something really specific, you can. When I decided to get really serious about my own personal fitness, I said, okay, I'm going to do as many pull-ups as I can do in one minute or less each day. When I started, I get only do half of one. Today, I can do 10, which is pretty good if you are very familiar with pull-ups. You may decide to do sit-ups or push-ups. You may only start with one.
But if you have that as your goal, I'm going to do as many sit-ups as possible for today in 60 seconds or less. You can do that even if it's one, you've achieved your goal. If you've only done one push-up, you have achieved your goal.
So set yourself up for some easy wins when it comes to your goals. Then you can get momentum and this will snowball in a positive way. So pick one right now. Don't just go to the next video. Pick a specific goal. A health goal would be an easy one. Do one push-up, one sit-up, one pull-up, right now.
