3 Weeks In

The initiation to 2025 has been intense and the next weeks only promise more fire. Are you burning yet?

If you need a little inspiration on how to sustain those goals and resolutions established for this new year, get a copy of the book The Magical Yet, by Angela DiTerlizzi. The book promises you that you have yet to experience something, but that it is still possible for it to happen. 

My question is what do you need to make it happen?

I made some resolutions about adopting the new identity as a energetic, vital and joy-filled person. I have had a couple of challenges and some amazing wins, yet I am not what I would consider joy-filled and certainly struggling with a little of the energy. 

It takes time for those new habits to take route. Three weeks is not quite there yet. It takes self reflection and awareness of the good things and the challenges to find a path to success. 
​Is your new habit or change...

• Connected to the identity of who you wish to become?
• Something which you must engage with more than once per day? Or at least once per day?
• Tied to a particular time of day? Or location?
• Linked to a reminder of some kind - an alarm or wearing particular clothes?

If you answered No to any of the above, then make an adjustment.

In the grand scheme of all you have lived and have yet to live, do not be discouraged. Change takes time. Let's say you resolved to eat healthier than you have in the past. Changing buying habits, learning new meal preparation and implementation take time. Go easy on yourself. Get curious if it is too hard. What is it that makes it hard? Finding ingredients? Being inspired to cook? So tired at the end of the day to cook? As you research the challenges, you will hit on some changes which may support your future success. Do you need an inspirational podcast? Do you need a supportive read? Research... keep doing your research.
