The Art of Achieving Your Goals: Hello 2022!
Welcome to 2022! In this episode, Pam Durant, reflects a bit on 2021 at Diapoint, and shares some thoughts about 2022, and talks about goal setting for the new year.   Research shows that less than 10% of people who set New Year resolutions actually achieve them. And, more than 50% of people who make resolutions can’t even remember why they chose their resolution on the first place.   Why is that? It's not as simple as "Just Do It", right?   It's about doing something that you enjoy and that lights you up... It's not about doing what everyone else is doing... It's about setting goals you and enjoy and seeing them through.... In a way that feels easy. In a way that doesn't take away from your other personal or family time. If you're over the thought of streaming your way through the rest of the year....   Join our FREE online training to support you on your journey ​The Art Of Acheiving Your Goals:   Here’s what we’re going to cover: Why so many of us don't achieve the health goals we pursue. How to set a goal and actually achieve it - It's not "just do it" The biggest thing that holds you back from sticking to your health goals and achieving them. ​ Tuesday, 22nd February at10am EST | 3pm GMT | 7pm GMT+4 ​   Sign up at this link to save your spot!   You can also book your personal FREE Health Plan call now!
