THE NEXT STAGE: ACTION

The next stage of Prochaska?s Transtheoretical model -
?Action? - kicks in once you?ve started taking (you guessed
it) action.

If you?re in this stage, you?re ready to make changes ? and
now. In the Action stage, you know where you want to be,
how you'll get there, and you?ve started (or are about to
start) doing something get you moving. You?ve made it past
the first major sticking point ?overcoming inertia, but
that doesn?t mean it?ll be an easy ride from here. No
matter how good your intentions, starting a routine isn?t
the same as maintaining it. Obstacles ? whether small (like
an invitation to do something at a time you?d planned on
working out) or large (like falling ill or injuring
yourself) ? are going to come up.


DEALING WITH OBSTACLES

When you encounter an obstacle, take a little time out to
reconnect with your main goal and your reasons for wanting
to achieve it. Remember why you?re exercising in the first
place. How could you still achieve your goal, and find ways
around this new obstacle? Your journal can be your friend
here ? use it to reflect back over why something may have
ended up being more difficult than expected, and to
brainstorm ideas for different ways to move forward. You
can also use it to proactively motivate yourself before
obstacles appear ? to track your progress in whatever area
you?d like to see yourself improving.


GET OTHERS INVOLVED

If you haven?t already, create an exercise routine that
gets friends or family involved. Studies have shown that
people whose friends or family support their goals are far
more likely to achieve them, and it?s hard not to feel
supported when people you care about are working out
alongside you. Not only that, but if you?ve agreed to meet
your ?workout buddy? for an exercise session, you make it
that much harder to let them down by deciding at the last
minute you just can?t be bothered today.

MAKE DEALS WITH YOURSELF

If you?re having trouble summoning the motivation to get
out the door, promise yourself you don?t have to finish
your workout if you don?t want to. Decide that you only
have to complete the first ten minutes, and then, if you
really don?t feel like keeping at it, give yourself
permission to pack up and go home again. Most of the time,
just getting out the door and starting will be enough.

For a short term motivational quick-fix, don?t
underestimate the power of bribery! Identify three or four
different little things that bring you pleasure, and
promise yourself you?ll take time out and indulge in at
least one of them if you complete your workout as scheduled.


GET HELP!

Finally, if you?re noticing increasing difficulty
motivating yourself despite trying all of the above
suggestions, consider talking to a personal trainer near
you. A big part of qualifying as a trainer involves not
just learning specific exercises, but learning how to keep
clients motivated. If cost is an issue for you, think
seriously about hiring an online trainer. Generally, online
training is far more reasonably priced than face-to-face
training - and if all you?re wanting is someone to keep you
enthusiastic and accountable, it means you?re not paying
for services you don?t need.

In next issue?s conclusion to our Exercise & Motivation
series, we look at the final stage of Prochaska?s model ?
and what to do if you find yourself in the dreaded
?Relapse? stage. Until then, may every day bring you
closer to your optimum life!
