Want BIG Changes in 2012

Everyone wants big changes in 2012!

If change was easy, personal trainers and coaches would be out of business.  Nobody would be overweight, bad at tennis or golf and we would all have great work habits.  But we all know that talking about change is the easiest part...and we do a lot of that!

86% of all big change has one of these:

Buddy.  The buddy system has been around a long time!  It's informal and you're not having to pay them directly (you just have to pay your gym membership fee that the two of you talked each other into).  Getting a buddy to work out with, learn a new language, take a class or whatever is a simple cure to keep you in the game.

Group Study. Ok...so you don't have a buddy.  Or at least one who will pay her half of the gym fee.  Now look for a group study.  There are plenty of those around.  And the fact that you found a few people who want the same thing you do will make it easy to keep each other on track.  You might be surprised at what you will find out in a group study and much synergy can rise!

Mentor.  This is a little more serious.  It usually means you are making a bigger commitment to a section of your life.  It means you are going to give someone permission to speak to your values and long term success.  Mentors usually happen in a work environment.  It may be formal or not.  I could be up close and personal.  Or it could be at a distance.  But it's someone who you requested to help you make some changes.

Professional Coach.  You hired this one.  You are spending money.  You gave him permission to put you on a schedule and hold you to it.  He is going to install some things into your thinking and lifestyle.  Change will go from excitement to nervousness to irritation to frustration back to excitement and celebration.  You will watch yourself do things you NEVER thought possible (when you are honest with yourself).  You will set goals and actions plans!  You will start talking in a new way.  You will abandon bad habits and methodically start new ones!

And in 100 days... you will Celebrate BIG CHANGE!!

And I'm gonna be celebrating with you!!!
