- Hi, no I'm not Dave,
I'm Jeff Nicholson.
And in this video I want to share with you
three tips to help you reflect on
whereabouts you are with your goals,
because we're all about self reflection
to work on what it is that
you're wanting to achieve,
and sometimes to come back inward
to identify where you are.
Tip number one.
Hook a new habit onto an old one.
This helps you because it's something
that you're already doing.
So if it's something like journaling
or if it's something like meditation,
do it at the same time
you do a old routine.
So breakfast, you may have a
breakfast and a cup of coffee
at exactly the same time.
What you can do is use that to hook on
a brand new habit.
It helps embed, and it
helps speed up the process.
Number two.
Reward points.
What you do is you give yourself a reward
that you can give yourself
when you achieve something.
So for example, is if you
are wanting to lose weight,
a specific target weight,
when you get to that point,
you can give yourself a reward,
maybe it's to go out with
your family on a special day,
or maybe it's a treat and
you buy yourself something.
Number three.
Tell people about your goals.
Your goal should not be a secret.
If it's something that
you're wanting to achieve,
the more people you tell
will actually give you
more accountability.
And we prefer not to let anyone else down
rather than ourselves.
So by telling people,
and more people about it,
you are spreading your
accountability with people.
So a reminder, three tips.
Number one, hook your
goals onto an old habit.
Number two, reward points.
Give yourself something
to reward yourself with
when you achieve a specific point.
And number three, tell
people about your goals.
Your goal should not be a secret.
There's something that
you're wanting to achieve,
so the more people you tell,
the more likely you are to achieve it.
