It may be time to re-evaluate and re-focus some of those goals. Take a look at your goals and make sure they are \u201cSMART\u201d \u2013 Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Timely.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block\">\n<p><strong><u>S<\/u><\/strong>pecific: What would you like to achieve? Be very clear about what you are aiming for. Simply saying \u201cI want to eat better\u201d or \u201cI will exercise more\u201d is too broad. Instead, try \u201cI will&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eggnutritioncenter.org\/blog\/meal-planning-eggs\/\">meal plan<\/a>&nbsp;every Saturday so I can grocery shop and meal prep on Sundays\u201d or \u201cI will&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eggnutritioncenter.org\/downloads\/toolkits\/ENC-Fitness-Interactive.pdf\">run<\/a>&nbsp;for 30 minutes in the morning every Monday, Thursday, and Saturday.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block\">\n<p><strong><u>M<\/u><\/strong>easurable: Once you\u2019ve broken your goal down, think about how you will measure success. Perhaps a check-list or a calendar where you can plan and schedule will be helpful.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block\">\n<p><strong><u>A<\/u><\/strong>chievable: Be honest with yourself and think about whether you can actually achieve your goal. Running a marathon next month may not be possible, but perhaps aiming for a 5k is more likely.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block\">\n<p><strong><u>R<\/u><\/strong>ealistic: Is your goal practical? If you have to be at work very early, waking up extra early to run may not work. Or if your Sunday schedule is already jam-packed, perhaps that\u2019s the wrong day to pick for grocery shopping and meal prep.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block\">\n<p><strong><u>T<\/u><\/strong>imely: By when would you like to achieve your goal? Something that can happen anytime, will likely happen at no time. But saying that you\u2019d like to achieve your goal within a certain timeframe helps with accountability and makes it more likely that you\u2019ll work to achieve that goal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block\">\n<p>Now that you\u2019ve transformed your resolutions into SMART goals, let\u2019s get cracking!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block\">\n<p>And remember, you don\u2019t have to wait for a new year to make goals and adopt healthy habits.
