Mini-Goals

mini goals

Last week we determined our overall goal. This week we will break that goal down into manageable mini-goals.

Let’s say your goal is to lose over 100 lbs. Let’s break that down into 1-2 lbs. a week.This rate is a healthy weight loss rate. So at the end of the year, we could be 52 lbs. slimmer by just focusing on your mini-goal of just 1 lb. each week.

Can you imagine how great you will feel when you are over half way to reaching your goal? What an accomplishment that will be! On the other hand, if you set yourself up to lose 5-10 lbs each week and continuously fall short, you can start feeling defeated and discouraged.

Mini goals keep us focused and keep us challenged. Reaching a goal us something to celebrate. What are your weekly goals? Are you keeping them realistic?
