It can be hard to stick to our goals sometimes, can’t it?

Exercising X times per week for Y hours.

All these ‘better’ food choices.

Work stuff, family stuff and so on.

It can all seem too much.

Where we often go wrong is looking at the entirety of what needs to be done.

The full, hardest version.

And picking between that or, essentially, nothing.

Not even getting going.

Once we get going it’s rarely as hard as we imagined.

And we can just do a smaller amount if needs be.

Getting going is the key.

Once we take that ‘on ramp’, we’re on the motorway.

We might get off at the next junction.

We might do a few hundred miles.

But we’re making progress.

Find your equivalent of that ‘on ramp’.

Something that takes, at most, two minutes.

That you can always do.

No matter what.

That will just get you going.

The thing, that once done, other stuff will, hopefully, flow from.

Pop your workout kit in the car boot every day.

Take 10 breathes before deciding what to do for tea.

Load up the online food shopping app on a Sunday night.

Book in for next week’s session on our app during your lunch break.

Get the iron out.

Fold one pair of socks.

Tidy one thing up.

You get the point.

Work backwards and find that super easy to take (sub two minutes, remember) first step (clicking this link is pretty easy and is the exact same first step every single one of our hundreds of life changing success took –>myrise.co.uk/briefing-meeting).

And make that, not the whole thing, your aim.

Much love,

Jon ‘I love ramp’ Hall and Matt ‘Pint of Guiness’ Nicholson
