Starting over resuming after falling off track
* Accept that setbacks are part of the process and are experienced by pretty much every person who has dared to go after something they want. You havenβt failed. You just were on an unplanned break. Resume. Now. Literally right now.
* Focus on your very next forward-progressing choice instead of trying to fix everything at once. Like what can you do in the next 5 minutes to get back on the wagon.Β
* Identify what caused you to fall off track so you can plan for it next time and avoid it easier.
* Begin with small, manageable habits, not an overly ambitious plan.
* Clear your environment of distractions and make good choices easier. This includes your digital environment.
* Stop waiting for the "perfect" day, week, or month to begin again. Now is the time to take even a tiny step forward.Β
* Use your previous progress as evidence that you are capable of succeeding, not as proof of your failure.Β
* Set one simple goal for today and build momentum from there. Iβm gonna keep telling you to do something today because you will not get back on track without action. Do it todayyyy.
* Always avoid βpunishingβ yourself with extreme diets/workouts, or overly rigid schedules.Β Why would you punish yourself for getting back up and moving forward? You should be congratulating yourself, silly. Donβt focus on how long you were down or lost progress, only focus on how you didnβt stay down and are trying again.
* Remember that consistency is built by returning to your habits repeatedly, not by never making mistakes. Literally everyone is making mistakes left and right but we get to the finish line by never giving up on our habits, even if it takes two or three times longer to reach success than we expected it to.
* Treat every setback as information that helps you create a stronger plan moving forward. Learn about yourself and what throws you off. Make a plan for yourself with this newfound knowledge in mind.
