Many people talk about ‘surviving the holidays’. Then they proceed to consume large quantities of alcohol, unhealthy foods and stress just to ‘get by’. A lot of energy goes into justifying ‘holiday splurging’ almost as if it is an excuse to be undisciplined.
This might be an unpopular opinion, but if you want success, health and wealth in the New Year, then you have to stay disciplined during the holiday period. Here are my top five tips to do that:
- No alcohol. It’s a no brainer. Alcohol is not just bad for the body, it stops us from bringing our A game. You will sabotage your fitness goals, your success goals and your wealth goals if you use the holiday season as an excuse to drink.
- Eat nutritious foods. There are so many online recipes for healthy holiday recipes. You don’t need to overeat, overconsume or indulge in order to enjoy the season. What about enjoying the season through committing to your personal goals rather than setting yourself back?!Try my cashew cookie recipe instead of eating processed holiday cookies.
- Stay away from toxicity. Toxic people, toxic foods, toxic news, toxic information. None of this will put you in the right frame of mind to reach your goals.
- Imagine where you want to be in 10 years. Now start working on that goal today. Having an exciting, big goal will keep you motivated to stay on track during the holiday season.
- Exercise every day. Movement boosts your metabolism and makes you feel good. It naturally causes you to feel more motivated. If you make a daily exercise routine and do it every day, you will be more likely to stay on track.
So that’s it! You can come through the holiday season more successful, more healthy and more wealthy by committing to your personal goals. And staying disciplined.
