How to make big changes happen without it feeling overwhelming

Today a new client asked me if change was really possible.

Let's face it. If it were easy to change people would do it.

It's the accountability and pushing and the coaching and the guidance and the inspiration and the daily expectations combined with our proven program and system that helps the change occur.

(BUT that means absolutely nothing to you right now!)

How about this...

Change is not only possible, it's INEVITABLE!

The world is changing every day. And so are our bodies whether we want them to or not. (We're either growing or decaying.)

I think what she really means is, is change really possible for HER - because she's scared of not being able to put forth the EFFORT change requires.

Instead, of letting the thought of the word 'change' or 'effort' terrify us, why not focus on micro changes?

How about exercising for an extra 2 minutes? How about exercising for a TOTAL of 2 minutes? Something IS always better than nothing!

How about waiting 5 minutes before you give in to eating junk food as opposed to eating it right away? It's all about the pause. We all have a few moments before we act.

How about cooking one extra meal per week?

How about waking up 10 minutes earlier?

How about going to bed 10 minutes earlier?

How about making your lunch?

How about for just one day this week you exercise first thing or immediately after work?

How about drinking a glass of water with each meal?

How about going for a walk next time you have a relentless craving?

How about starting your meal with either salad or veggies?

How about you skip the glass of wine with dinner just for tonight?

How about for just one meal per day you make a meal last more than 20 minutes?

How about for just one day this week you submit your feedback BEFORE dinner so you're mentally committing to what you'll eat?

How about you take the stairs instead of the elevator?

How about your brush your teeth or chew gum or use mouth wash next time you have a craving?

All of these are simple things that can and will lead to our success.

And best of all, change begets change. Small changes eventually turn into enormous changes.

Rome wasn't built in a day, right?

The only way to get to where we want to be is to change.

We can't just go from the person we are now, to the person we want to be without changing anything.

But that thought can be overwhelming.

Instead, think micro.

What micro changes can you make today? Tomorrow? This week?
