Yes, you need a challenge, but it shouldn’t be something that is so far-fetched that you don’t even want to go after it 2 weeks later.

I want to emphasize the importance of aligning your goals with your everyday life. You need to come down to earth with your ambitions, and create a sustainable path towards a healthier lifestyle; create your now!

So, if you want to live a different lifestyle, you gotta humanize your goals.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Humanize your goals!

Here are three practical steps to humanize your goals for healthy living:

1. Personalize Your Approach

Instead of setting broad, impersonal goals like “lose weight” or “eat clean”, try to tailor your aspirations to suit your individual preferences and lifestyle.

For example, if you enjoy dancing, set a goal to incorporate dance workouts into your weekly routine. This way, you’re not forcing yourself to do something you dread, but rather integrating an activity that brings you joy.

“Your health goals should reflect who you are, not who you think you should be. Embrace activities that align with your passions.” ~ Kristianne Wargo

2. Make Room for Oopsies

These are your indulgences. Depriving yourself of your favorite treats can lead to feelings of restriction and eventual burnout. Instead of banning all indulgences, practice moderation and mindfulness in your eating habits. Allow yourself to savor a small serving of your favorite dessert occasionally without any guilt attached.

“Healthy living is about harmony, not perfection. Enjoying a treat now and then can actually contribute to your overall well-being by satisfying your cravings in a controlled manner.” ~ Kristianne Wargo

3. Celebrate Small Wins

Break down your ultimate health goals into smaller, tangible milestones that you can celebrate along the way. Whether it’s completing a week of consistent workouts or trying a new vegetable recipe, acknowledge and reward yourself for each achievement. This positive reinforcement will keep you motivated and engaged in your healthy living journey.

“Success is not just reaching the finish line; it’s about embracing the journey and applauding yourself for every step forward. Each small victory brings you closer to your larger goal of holistic well-being. This is honoring who you are and who you are becoming.” ~ Kristianne Wargo

By humanizing your health goals and infusing them with personalization, harmony, and recognition of progress, you can transform your outlook on healthy living.

Embrace the process, be kind to yourself, and remember that small steps taken consistently lead to significant results.

“One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!” ~ Kristianne Wargo

“Your health goals are a reflection of your self-care journey. Treat yourself with the same compassion you would offer to anyone.” ~ Kristianne Wargo
