The Mistakes We Make When Trying To Start A New Life On Monday

I want to start playing sports, learn English, be confident, build up, and so We say to ourselves: "That's it, from this Monday, I'm starting a new life … and …"

Let's get it in order.

Who is this NEW LIFE? How does it start? Why Monday? And where did the "old life" go?

When can a new life begin? I count only when on the issue that you want to change your new thoughts, you think differently than before and your body responds to these thoughts. That is, new thoughts are accepted by you not only at the level of the mind (mental level), but also at the level of the body. When new thoughts and beliefs are accepted bodily, then for a run at 6 in the morning you get up with pleasure, run to fitness from work on the rise of energy and desire, even 10 minutes on the subway is in English.

So here is MISTAKE # 1 We are starting a new life at the level of MIND

How to turn on the body?

Add awareness of why I should do this. Try to feel bodily, and how will I feel when I get what I want. Now I speak English well, what then? I feel more confident, which means that the body is stretched, posture is even, the chin is slightly higher. And now you have already activated the bodily level, and now there is a stronger desire to do what you have planned, and not only on Monday, but right now on Saturday.

So I started to eat right, what do I feel? Lightness in the stomach, lightness in the body, the mood has improved, I want to run and buy lighter products in the store.

ERROR # 2 Start exactly on Monday

Why not choose the day on which you are now making this decision. And to do at least a very small action in order to consolidate your confidence in the desire to do something in a new way. At least download an application for learning English, do 10 squats, and eat a vegetable salad for dinner.

Why do we need Monday, new year or new month?

It's just that the mind distracts us from reality. And the reality is the same - Here and Now. There is no your yesterday, where you haven’t studied English yet, didn’t do squats and didn’t eat a vegetable salad, there is no next Monday, where you plan to do all this. And there is now, where is the time to start.

MISTAKE # 3 Being tuned in for quick results

People who usually start life on Monday often decide on emotions, on impulse, and these moments usually pass quickly. Already Monday, now the impulse has already begun, and on Tuesday, it is also there, and on Wednesday it is already difficult to get up at 6 in the morning, and the weather outside the window is not suitable for running, there was no time for English, and I really wanted a chocolate bar for dinner. coffee…

And then self-flagellation, well, how is it, I again could not, and then, well, okay, I'll start on a new Monday.

How to avoid such recessions? Initially tune in to the fact that you are ready for the process that you enter in order to get the result. The process is extended in time, the process is always more pleasant and easier if it goes in steps, often in small steps. Recognize that you are on a certain path, and there are steps along the way. You do not need to do a workout in an hour of time, and then not get out of bed, you can divide it: today I do abdominal exercises 60 times and a warm-up, tomorrow I do 30 abdominal exercises, but add 30 squats and 10 exercises with dumbbells, etc. etc.

You must learn to enjoy the process itself. At least give the command to Uma: Now I enjoy the process of changing myself and my life. All the cells in my body are focused on getting pleasure. Repeat these phrases several times, when the process suddenly becomes interesting, and pleasure appears.

MISTAKE # 4 Devalue your small results

Yes, in a week you were able to build only 1 kg, and not 5, as your mind decided that you can do that in a week. Yes, after a month you are still looking at the cheat sheet and can only say the most basic phrases in English, but you can already say these phrases. And yes, on Wednesday you showed uncertainty at the meeting, but the vector of your attention still looks at the fact that you will become confident. The main thing is not who you are now, the main thing is who you want to be. Assign to yourself your small achievements, they ALREADY EXIST, and this is the most important thing.

The most important thing is that you go and are ready to reach what you want anyway. Only strong people try as many times as necessary until they get what they want. Understand that it doesn't matter which day you start something, the name of the day will definitely not help you stay motivated, achieve more or better, get something faster. Start when you feel like it, because when Monday comes, the enthusiasm may sway, and the Mind will tell you why you might not succeed. Just start doing and it will attract that very NEW LIFE.
