Setting your Personal Goals - Why

-
Life is subjective, and how each person aims to live to reach her own goals and purpose is up to her individual motivation. And how you pursue your own goals is important too. You can have your WHY - your personal goal in life and your ultimate achievements - but do you have the HOW?

A manager once told me that the means justifies the end. The process at which you get through to reach your personal or company goal has to be the most effective and time-efficient method, even if it includes upsetting others or missing lunch to get it done. There's some truth to this statement when it comes to work, but at what expense? Those of others and your own welfare? When this statement wears you and others down, its not something that will sustain you in the long-run. (I missed many meals as a result.)

So the process at which you aim to achieve your goals is not and should not be short-cut. In work or diet or exercise, there is no short-cut to success. And success is a ladder, not an elevator... you're gonna have to climb it one rung at a time.

Take some time to evaluate your personal career or diet or exercise goals and renew these goals in your life. (I'm sure you made some in the new year as resolutions, you can use those as starters.) And when your goals are set, put them down some place so you can refer back to them:
  1. in a diary
  2. tell a friend/family member so they can keep you accountable
  3. post-it on the mirror where you'll check yourself every morning
  4. phone or laptop wallpaper
  5. write your goals in the comment section below, and I can check in on you if you want.
Don't be impatient in getting your ideal weight or success story. Enjoy the process! If you require a more structured and disciplined approach to your goals, just fill out this form and I will get in touch with you! Or contact me for more information.

New Year New You

The new year is a great time to look back at the old year and thank God for how far you've come. As you evaluate, look forward to the new year ahead with hope and anticipation that it will be better as you better yourself. "There's no elevator to success. You have to take the stairs." - Zig Ziglar Physically as you aim to be healthier, fitter and with improved energy, look to take care of your diet by counting calories. The more you're aware of your quality of food, the more you'll notice your body changing for good. (Go vegan!) Also, insert up to 3 workouts into your weekly schedule, especially if you lead a generally sedentary lifestyle. Emotionally and socially , it is important to make time for what relaxes and recharges you. Find an activity that makes you happier or more uplifted; for ladies it might be a social gathering or karaoke and men could use a visit to the beach or golf course with buddies. Spiritually be with God and in tune with t

Counting Christmas Calories

Why count your calories now? Because new year is rolling around soon and before you know it, you've blown the chance to start the year right. If chicken was part of the family feast you had over the Christmas weekend, and it should, then you'll likely have taken 248 calories per serving. It is estimated at 25% fat (especially if fried) and 75% protein. So bulking up during these feasts are a good time to start. The excess protein from ham, turkey and sausages are essential amino acids for muscle growth when you exercise. Protein and carbohydrates combined, like chicken potato pie and Chinese-style meat buns and fish & chips, are a common combo in Singaporean menus. It can provide upwards of 220 calories per serving, which is 1 fist size. And dishes don't come in small fist sizes, right? The less carbs the better, so your body won't have to store the excess carbs as fats instead. Nonetheless, the ever-present cookies and delicacies of the season are alway
