Tips for Getting Back On Track

Gettin' those ducks in a row!
Sometimes it takes longer to get grounded and back on track than expected. After 5 weeks on the road, I was fully ready to be back home, and excited about getting back to the work I love. I anticipated jumping right back into everything with ease and flow. HA! Consequently, it's taken me awhile to get all those little ducks in a row-probably because they are to busy playing in all the rain puddles around here!

Getting off track is easy. Getting back on track can be challenging. It includes a process of re-commitment and desire.



First we need to remember why we are committed in the first place. This re-connects us to our original vision and helps fuel the fires of change.

Next, set some goals. Make them simple. What is one small step you can take that will push you forward?

Start slowly. Don't try to do to much to fast. You will only get overwhelmed, frustrated or discouraged. That's not a Winning Game.

Have fun! After all, this is your commitment, you feel passionate about it, it means something to you! Find ways to keep yourself joyfully engaged in the process and you are bound to have success.

Put it on paper. Better yet, tell someone else (like a coach, your friend, or a co-worker). Writing it down, and putting it out there helps the universe to respond in a way that supports your efforts.

Have a way to evaluate your progress. Know where you want to be in a certain amount of time, know what success looks and feels like, and keep track of it!

Reward yourself. You deserve it. You're working hard. Make it worthwhile and celebrate your "wins".

As I get back in the flow of my life and work, it feels good to know that I can re-align to my commitments and jump back into what's important to me, despite a slow start.
If you need a little jump start and support getting back on track yourself, check out the "1-2-3, Let's Get Healthy" program. It just might help your ducks come out of those puddles and line up in a neat little row!
