Tuesday's Tip

Well another week has passed and the time has come again to dispense the knowledge that you have come to know as Tuesday's Tip. As you saw yesterday there was progress made albeit small, any progress is good in the right direction. So here is the tip for this week:

Don't always lose sight of your goals by making them so large that you become frustrated with them, set attainable goals that will encourage you. There are several schools of thought when it comes to goal setting. One of them is the one mentioned before where one sets goals that can be reached in a moderate period of time and then sets a new goal of the same variety. The other school of thought involves setting long term goals and setting several smaller goals associated with each goal that will help guide the success.

We are trying a combination method. We set a goal to get more healthy. We set no real time table or method to do this we just want to be more healthy than we are now. We are taking our progress in 4 month chunks and monitoring the physical evidence that displays that progress every two weeks. We learn from each other what is working and what doesn't and we encourage each other to strive to meet our goals.
