Goal setting can be started at any time of the year, there is no need to wait for New Year’s resolutions when you can start today. In fact, adopting some new goals may have an added benefit to your health and wellness throughout the holiday season.

There are many ways to approach setting goals. Today we are sharing a goal-setting process that can help fuel your health and wellness goals that I like to refer to as BEAR: Belief, Energy, Action and Results. 

BELIEF -- When setting a new goal, having the belief that you can attain the goal is foundational to the outcome. Having like-minded people in your support system who will be honest and challenge you will yield the best results. Belief is the fuel needed to set your goal. 

ENERGY -- Most people have great, positive energy to start something. This energy boosts motivation from within to set out on this journey. While this positive energy is engaged it must be harnessed into action. 

ACTION -- Failure to act while energized is where many goals get sidetracked, often in a short span of time. This is where a support group has great impact. Setting the plan, action and timeline with trusted support will make even the smallest actions go further. 

RESULTS -- When actions are executed, with unwavering belief, results will appear. As positive results appear, the BEAR cycle can restart again toward the next goal. The results journey should be tough enough to fuel belief, which will build energy, on to action and results again. 

BEAR goal setting is a cycle fueled by belief, with repeating energy and action to achieve your goals, no matter the challenges.  Contact CHF today to support your BEAR goals and improve your health and well-being.
