4. Talk to others about it! If you keep your goals or desire for change a secret it’s easier to give up on it. We all know you shouldn’t care what other people think – but we all do to an extent. So tell somebody, or lots of somebodies, about what you want to do. That way you can be shamed into continuing when you need to. Sure, you could give up, but then those people you told are going to realize you’re just another one of those people that talks about wanting to get healthy but never does anything about it. Do you want to be that guy? I sure don’t.
Me blogging about this is another way of talking about it. Look at me talking all big – I better live up to it. Or I’m going to have a bunch of friends thinking “Jackson is so lame.” Come to think of it, I probably already have a bunch of friends that think that. But I want it to be for other reasons. Share your intentions to change with at least one other person and it will increase your chances of sticking with it.
