Tips for Setting 2017 Fitness Goals & Why You Need a Community to Support You
How many of you are really trying to think of your 2017 fitness goals? As a mom and outdoor nerd, I have realized the importance of setting goals and having a community rooting for my goals. One thing I realized this year is that there are a lot more people out there with the same fitness goals as me! Now that I have found a community to share those goals with, I am more fired up than ever to achieve them. Check out these tips for setting goals in 2017 and why you need that community to support you!
Goals help you to get things done!
It is a proven fact that when you set a goal for yourself, you are more likely to get things done. Try setting a few small goals, achieve them, and experience how awesome this feels. Once you have tackled those small goals, try working towards some bigger ones.
Set goals that you want to achieve
Don’t mess around with goals in which you have no desire to accomplish. Half of the fun of setting goals is achieving them. Spend some time coming up with goals that you want to achieve! You will be surprised as to how much more motivating it is to work towards goals you want to accomplish. Trust me, it will make goal achieving that much sweeter!
Goals help keep you on track
Many people wonder why goals are important. Let’s say you have a goal of losing 50 pounds in 2017, but you have no plan to get there. Goals are like a plan to help you reach your achievements. While we don’t always reach our fitness goals, it does help to keep us on track! The end goal is to always reach our goal, but if that doesn’t happen, it is always amazing to look and see what was accomplished along the way.

Communities help to keep you motivated
I am a part of several like-minded groups on Facebook. This means that we have the same goals in mind. When it comes down to it, having a community with the same like-minded goals can help us to achieve things we never thought of. When you are lacking in motivation, you can lean on the community you are a part of. When you come across a problem, you can bounce ideas off of your community! Communities are super important in the goal achievement process. Don’t you agree?
