Who do you have to become in order to reach your goal?
Imagine yourself 1 year from now, having already reached it.
Who are you? What are you thinking about? What types of activities are you doing? What are you feeling?
Take some time to really consider this. You can write the answers from your future self who is already there.
Once you have the answers to these questions, start living from this place. Become your future self now!
This is how you get to your goal.
I shared an exercise on Facebook Live yesterday that you can use on a daily basis to BE your future self in this moment. It helps you change patterns and habits that are no longer serving you. Click here to watch the replay!
The exercise is called “I’m the type of person who…”
So first, think about 1 habit you want to change.
Maybe you want to stop eating sugar. Maybe you want to stop snacking. Maybe you want to stay on your protocol every single day. Maybe you want to start waking up early to meditate. Whatever it is….consider what type of person you have to become in order to do it.
Next, come up with a sentence that you can use to pattern interrupt whenever you feel the urge to continue your old habit.
So for example…
If the habit you want to change is eating sugar. Whenever you felt the urge to have sugar, you say “I’m the type of person who doesn’t care for sugar.” or “I’m the type of person who doesn’t eat sugar.” Then you move away from the candy jar.
You’re actively telling yourself that you are the person you want to become.
And that is how you become that person!
What type of person are you??
