How To Take The Pressure Off Your Goals

Black woman in yoga class.

Do you track your progress every day?


If you do, you might be feeling one of two ways:


A) You’re keeping up with your workouts and meal plan and are feeling good about the progress you’re making, OR


B) You’ve had a few slip-ups and you’re feeling like you have to “start over” once January rolls around.


If you’re leaning more towards B, I want to help you take the pressure off.


With my clients, I’ve noticed that daily tracking keeps some people focused and motivated…


But for others, especially during busy times like the holidays, daily tracking can feel like every “off” day is a setback.


And when that happens, it’s easy to slip into an all-or-nothing mindset.


In fact, it can feel like one less-than-perfect day means you’re totally off track.


The solution?


Give yourself a “weekly budget” or a “weekly plan” for your goals instead of daily.


That might look like:

●       Focusing on hitting your step goal over the week rather than a strict daily count

●       Planning your workouts in advance and shooting for a certain number each week

●       Aim for a weekly calorie deficit instead of stressing over it every day


Whatever feels best for you.


This way, instead of adding more stress to your daily schedule, you’re zooming out and looking at the bigger picture.


Either way, remember to give yourself some space—you’re making progress, one week at a time.


If you’re ready for more guidance and accountability as we head into the new year, let’s connect! Schedule your consultation today, and let’s build your game plan together!
