Choice is the key element.  Choice has the ability to awaken our motivation which will ultimately carry us through when momentum is lacking because it is based on what we want instead of what we must or ‘should’ do.  Motivation is a built in ‘power booster’ that launches us forward in strength toward our desired outcomes in that moment of decision; to follow through or not.

When operating from choice, our individual purpose leads or points us in the direction of our desired outcomes and we are not driven by should’s, have to’s, or ought to’s, that weigh heavy on the mind by registering a ‘not good enough’ fear.

You have to know what you want before you can design a way to get it.  In order to design a way to get what you want, it will behoove you to ask yourself powerful questions

The traditional belief that the New Year is the ideal time to make changes in our lives forces many people to make decisions based on what they think they should do, rather than what they want. This process sets us up for disappointment and a lack of sustainable progress which brings no measureable results. According to a recent study, 91percent of those who make resolutions don’t keep them.

In a not so traditional consideration, what then, is the key to release making changes to work for us and not be so daunting? What if those changes were reframed through a lens of perspective that said; “I chose the changes based on what I want, therefore I am responsible for their success”.

What then would be different about how we relate to our chosen changes? How easy would decisions of whether or not to have one more piece of pie be? I mean, if I choose to change my physique, and I am responsible for the outcome by my choices and habits, will one more piece of pie bring me closer to my desired outcome – or not? Decisions become easy.
