At the beginning of a new year,
approximately half the population will set a goal to accomplish in the coming
12 months. Many will fail because they either feel too overwhelmed by the goal
they’ve set, or because they begin to work toward achieving the goal and don’t
see immediate results.
According to One Small Step Can Change Your Life: The Kaizen Way by Robert Maurer, Kaizen embodies the idea of making great and lasting
change through small, steady increments. Continuing with the Eastern mindset,
Kaizen is the tortoise versus the hare–the idea that slow and steady wins the
race. The emphasis here, again, is starting where you are, taking the first
step, then continuously moving forward. You will not lose 50 pounds by standing
on a treadmill; however, if you walk on the treadmill for ten minutes the first
day, then ten more the next, and so on, you will begin the forward momentum
necessary to attain the weight-loss goal you’ve set.
The first step in making positive changes in your life is to know what
you want to achieve. Take a minute today and list goals you’d like to set–whether it’s finding a new job, losing weight, or learning a new
language. Of the items on the list, decide what you feel most passionate about,
and list the steps you need to take to make it a reality. Start today with one
small step, then take another step tomorrow, and the next day, and the day
after that. If you miss a day, start right back where you left off.
