This year, we forget the good resolutions that we never keep and we just talk about achieving our goals. Goals ! Thinking about losing weight, quitting smoking or spending less time on social media? Here are the 4 factors of a successful transformation.
Resolutions generally follow a trigger event or a pressing need that is hard to reach. Often, when a year ends, we hope that the next will be synonymous if not with transformation, at least with evolution.
Commitments to yourself
In fact, good resolutions are a custom of Western civilization on the occasion of the transition to new Year. It consists of taking one or more commitments to oneself to improve one’s behavior, change a bad habit or positively transform your lifestyle during the coming year. In other words, we want achieve new goals…
While a large majority of French people make good resolutions for the year, 85% of them admit to being unable to keep them in the long term. But their rate of success of these resolutions would be significantly improved when they are made public and they get the support of friends and the surroundings.
Achieving your goals means making the right decisions
For the human being, there is nothing stronger in the world than a “global” decision. The first day of the year is thus an easy appointment to memorize and which has the particularity of being universal.
This produces a sort ofgroup energy, crucial to achieve its objectives. So in thecollective unconsciousthere is a kind of planetary “communion” new year’s day.
At the beginning of the year, the period is favorable because there is a feeling of renewal and the coolness of the climate lends itself well to it. Culturally, it is both the renewal of all nature, of the human being and it is therefore a perfect time to make real decisions for change.
The right motivation to change your habits
Everything that is alive and human on this planet is based on the 5 life factors. The principle is simple: everything that is alive and human breathes, feeds, protects itself, thinks and feels emotions. Thus, everything that happens in the heart and the emotional system is linked to these 5 factors of life.
Any positive decision is based initially on a motivation. Whatever this decision (weight loss, quitting smoking, etc.), as long as it is good for the body, it will interfere with our logical thinking and our emotions.
But a decision that is good for the body (a decision made in conscience) will only be taken if we take into account our five factors of life. It is a global process that must be set in motion if we wish to achieve our objectives in a sustainable way.
The 4 stages of change to achieve your goals
One cannot really negotiate with oneself because in a negotiation, there are people and arguments which come into play and which are supposed to convince the other party.
The first rule for keeping resolutions for a whole year is therefore to follow four steps: truth, lucidity, progressiveness, freedom. What does this mean in practice?
1. Truth
If we decide to lose weight, we do not actually make the decision to lose a certain number of kilos. We accept the idea of changing. To lose weight, we will have to modify our dietary, physical, emotional behavior, etc. Otherwise, overweight can never be sustainable.
The pounds lost will only be a consequence of a deeper and more global change: leading a healthier life. This is the first step: it is factual and consists of noting the truth.
2. Lucidity
We then decide to improve the evening meal, both in nutritional quality and in ease of digestion (light proteins). Thus, we will perfectly stick to our decision to lose weight. It is to show lucidity relative to its own lines.
3. Progressiveness
If you decide to lighten all the evening meals, you can proceed as follows: initially, every other evening, then five evenings a week except weekends. It is the concept of progressiveness.
4. Freedom
Finally, to achieve the objective, we switch to light menus every day of the week except one day. It is the exception that allows us to stay the course, the reward that allows us to celebrate the effort provided. It is the space of freedom essential.
But be careful, as long as the brain has not become aware of the overweight, there will be a frontal opposition. A confrontation between the decision to lose weight (good for health) and the brain which wants to continue to enjoy (concept of pleasure) and therefore does not want to lose weight.
