The new year is a perfect time to start new routines, but how do you decide which routines mean the most to you?

Define your Goals

The first step is defining your goals. These can be in any area of your life – in your career, in your relationships, in your personal health, in your wealth… you get the idea.

In our Sunday Instagram Lives for January, we taught you how visualisation can be used to understand your motivations and define your goals.

Work Towards your Goals

Once you have define your goals, it’s time to start to work towards them. At VIVE, we use visualisation as a technique to get into the state of achieving our goals as if they have already happened. This helps us to form an identity aligned to our goals, which is one of the most powerful things you can do to maintain a routine and form a new habit.

The next stage is action. Creating a strategy is important but not as important as action. The plan you create gives a direction to head in and a speed to go at – but things rarely ever follow the plan exactly. So it’s better to take action and use your newfound identity to respond to surprises, than it is to spend vast amounts of time planning.

We hope that you enjoyed this month’s theme! Now that January is over, it’s time for Find your Flow February.
