Is Your Past Haunting You? Tips to Move On and CRUSH Your Goals!

This quote really speaks to me this morning. A lot of people feel like they've already FAILED at 2016, but it's only one week into the year! I'm not talking about just weight loss here, but ANY goals and aspirations you have.

So many people drag the failures of yesterday into today, but all that does is rob them of the potential to make today amazing. Is there anything that you should let go of but haven't? I challenge you to BLESS AND RELEASE!
So what does that mean exactly? How do we just let things go? Well, it's not simple, but it is valuable. Is something dragging you down? Weighing you down? Is there something you've tried to do before that you consider yourself a failure at? Most of us will have at least one thing that pops into our mind. Here's a few steps to help you decide how to handle it:

1. Decide if it's still a goal you have. Is it something important to your life now? Think about how it would feel if you had the opposite outcome. Would you feel better? Or maybe indifferent? If it would make you happier, or feel better, proceed to step 2!

2. Try again! Maybe the time wasn't right before. Maybe you didn't have the right tools. Maybe you need to enlist better support. But if this is a goal that will improve your life, you need to let the past go and try again. There may be new variables that will help you succeed this time.

3. Don't just wish for it, work for it! What can you do to improve your chances of succeeding? What tools can you give yourself that you didn't have before? Can you add accountability somehow?

4. If perhaps you decided you would be indifferent to the result, this is when you need to bless and release. So what does that mean exactly? That means not bringing it up at every turn. That means truly forgiving yourself (or the other person) for not making that happen. That means putting it out into the universe and making peace with it. And then MOVING ON.
