Goals

Its A Long Road…

It’s been a while, and I haven’t given up trying on my dreams. The journey seems so long, and some days are really bad with no hopes and no results. But still I try to get back the next day or day after. One important thing is what I eat affects so much! My eating habits aren’t very healthy, so after waking up when I have a big full breakfast w/ too much carb, I feel so exhausted to work! I recently started doing intermittent fasting. Not for too long, about 13 hours of no food, it may look like pretty normal, but for me it is a big deal, since i used to eat at mid night!! This fasting is helping a little, not a lot, but I am hoping slowly I will be able to increase the fasting hours and have better results. Right now the focus is on just doing it, even for less hours.

Its really hard working when your regular life has no discipline and your day to day activities are pretty mundane, but I guess that is the struggle that I have to work through, to not give up and keep trying. It will soon happen!!

Goals

Resume…

When we distract from our path towards goal, and struggle to come back, do we start over? I don’t think so, for all the work that has been done before distraction still remains. But sine many times we believe ‘omg, i have to start over’, ‘its all for nothing’ etc, the believe and thought kinda make it somewhat true. You see, believe and thoughts are so powerful that if you keep believing you can’t, you actually can’t! Somehow this time, the journey toward my goal is relatively persistent, I do get out of the way for few days, but I don’t lose hope, and I firmly believe that I can….so resuming from where you started doesn’t invalidate everything you did and you are starting new, it means, you took a break, now you will resume your journey towards your goal.

Priming

I have started a personal life coaching session with a Tony Robbin’s life coach. One of the thing she keep mentioning about is priming. Each day when we wake up and when we go to sleep priming is very important. When/if we can prime ourselves properly, It sets a tone for the day and help us make decisions based on our goals instead of instant happiness.

So, when I wake up these days, I try to prime a bit, many times I noticed, I get distracted by the phone or opening a random social media website or check emails, and completely forget what should I even think for my goals when I do priming. I very important step of priming is ‘Visualization’. Being able to see your goal as if it already happened, and how it feels! The too many distraction of every days life make it so hard to remember where am I heading in life….daily prime supposed to keep me grounded and give me a daily reminder of what I want, and how to make decisions everyday to go towards it!

Priming involves few steps as Tony Robins suggest. Here is an image I found online which Tony Robbins suggest/follows for daily morning priming:

You Can, You Must

It was very hard to not fall back to sleep in the morning after waking up, as I am used to doing it a lot :/ The thing I kept reminding myself is I have had enough luxury of resting, its time to get back to hard work or else, I am at the verge of making my very near future a complete disaster!! It will be very painful and not only me, I will put my family members also in a bad situation. So my success not only makes my life better but it also helps my family, friends and many people I know. By working hard and building a better future I can help myself and also, others. The ability to be able to help others is the source ultimate joy & happiness 🙂 But before that I have to fill my cup, instead of pouring from an empty cup!

Interrupting Old Pattern/Thoughts

Its quite natural to fall back to your old way of talking to yourself and go into autopilot mode. So the biggest challenge is be able to have the awareness and try to interrupt the thoughts. Just the step of being able to catch it and interrupt will help a lot! At first, it might be challenging but as the saying goes “When you want something bad enought you will find a way…”.

Changes don’t happen overnight, I have been on the journey of self awareness and understanding self for last 4/5 years and yet I am struggling everyday with so many things. I guess when I am in it, it doesn’t feel like much, but if I look back I can feel how much I have changed, how many things I have become comfortable with, how many things in life to be accepting with and most importantly how much I am trying and not giving up 🙂

Anyway, I felt like goig to sleep after kids went to sleep (what I usually do most days) but I interrupter and asked myself: “What would the person I want to become will do?”

This question is with me for couple days, every time I feel lost or not sure of my next step, I ask this question to myself and the answer represented to myself with a smile and I try my best to do that! I am getting there, I can feel it! I am going towards my dream, and my goal.

New Pattern, New Beliefs

Its been a while I looked at myself. I have been somewhat overwhelmed by the two kids I have. They are (finally) growing fast 🙂 And now as I look into my life, I find myself lost and broke! Few belief systems has brought me to this situation of my life. So, I want to build new beliefs and pattern in my life to have a better life for myself!

The first step is, changing the belief: I AM LAZY! I am not lazy, I have been busy with so many things, kids and home related, what happened is I prioritize wrong things, I got exhausted because of the way I managed time, and the kind of things I was focused on (once again, mostly unimportant things) and therefore most days ended up in front of TV with a big bowl of rice and curry at 10PM!

The new belief is:

  • I AM HARD WORKING
  • I KNOW HOW TO PRIORITIZE THE IMPORTANT THINGS
  • I AM CAPABLE OF MANAGING TIME

I have started life coach with one of the Tony Robbin’s life coach, and I am working towards transitioning to my new belief system and change my life to get what I want for myself!
