It is apparent that anxiety, stress and weight loss are just
something we must deal with. How we respond to these challenges will
determine if we triumph or suffer temporary defeat. There are many other
things we face on a daily basis but for now let's focus on weight loss,
then we can apply our success to other things in our lives.
Many times we find ourselves falling short because we never take the time to clearly define our goals. We fail to realize the power of our minds. Once we decide and fully engage our minds we can accomplish more than ever thought possible. I'm not talking about positive thinking, although that is a bi-product of this engagement of the mind.
Followed by our concrete decision comes a plan of action. This is simply a road map of how you're going to arrive at your destination (goal). This is similar to the way you plan out a road trip (before the days of the GPS). Then you can take small steps each day to keep yourself on course and start experiencing small areas of success that we can build on. With each success we can slowly bind up anxiety and stress and send them out of our lives. Start with a broad view (your ultimate goal), develop your road map and start to chunk it down into daily tasks. Don't be afraid to spend some time with this as it will be your treasure map.
Lighten up on yourself. You're taking great steps so give yourself a break and resolve to banish any negative thinking. Small, consistent, daily steps like a steam roller will give you solid, long-term results. You can't always control what comes into your mind but you can control what you choose to grab and claim as yours. With practice you can take command of your thinking and only allow what is healthy.
Keep everything simple. Many times we end up with analysis paralysis and never get started because the task seems so overwhelming. Start with small, simple, daily steps and keep your eyes on the road map you developed earlier. This will develop into daily habits which in a few weeks you'll look back and see the progress you're making.
Incorporate into your road map a healthy, well-rounded diet plan. This is like your turbo booster to accelerate your success.
You can control and rid yourself of anxiety and weight loss using these simple methods. Whenever anxiety and stress tries to rear their ugly head, focus on the road in front of you. What happens if you take your eyes off the road while you're driving? You crash right? Same holds true here. So lets set your goal, develop the road map to get there, then chunk it down into bite size (daily) pieces. Give yourself a break and keep your eyes on the road.
