Do you find yourself wanting to lose 5-10kg every single year and not knowing why you still haven't lost the weight? ⁣ ⁣ Chances are the goals you're setting are missing a piece that's stoping them from sticking. ⁣ ⁣ All too often we set goals thinking that we're setting them to better ourselves when in reality, we're setting them to prove to ourselves that we will never achieve them. We fail to realise how goal setting can often form part of a self sabotaging loop which continues to keep us stuck. ⁣ ⁣ When you set goals with the intention of wanting to create space for you to grow into, to expand, evolve and shift, suddenly the goal becomes less about the goal and rather the person you need to become in order to see that goal become a reality. ⁣ ⁣ With weight loss in particular, we fool ourselves into thinking we will be happier or that we will be more liked by others when we see that magical number appear on the scales. What we are actually seeking in that moment is approval from ourselves. Without self acceptance, we will seek anything that fills us up momentarily with food being a default for a lot of us. ⁣ ⁣ What else should you factor in when setting a goal that is going to stick in 2024?
