WHO MOVED MY CHEESE?

WHO MOVED MY CHEESE?

New year, new --- nope, same me.

Are you thinking about New Year resolutions? I've got a very well-timed lesson from my Positive Psychology course.

Four Steps to making big changes in 2024

Step 1 - Think of a time when you made an important change in your life.

Step 2 - What steps did you take to create the change?

Step 3 - Name two areas in your life you'd like to make changes in, you're welcome to start with a title like Health but write a few more specific sentences.

Step 4 - Look at the steps you took to make your important change and build the same structure for the changes for 2024.


For example, if mine were to stop eating Lactose (because I am intolerant) and it's not great for my health. My example would be something like this (Step 2 and Step 4):


???? Research

e.g. "If someone with a lactose intolerance continues to consume too much lactose, they may experience worsened symptoms, lower mood, and a reduced quality of life. Chronic diarrhea may lead to complications such as malnutrition, unexplained weight loss, and anemia."


?? Talk to friends/parents and seek agreement, bounce ideas, and gain endorsement

e.g. Speak to friends who are vegan and made the plunge Monique Failla


? Weigh up why I can't stay the same, why isn't it good for me anymore?

e.g. It would be great to not feel bloated and unwell all the time. You'd think this would be enough but I needed more swaying. Did you know Dairy is addictive?? "New research argues that cheese is addictive in a way similar to drugs because of?a chemical called casein, which is found in dairy products and can trigger the brain's opioid receptors". Nope, not a fan of that at all.


?? Make a plan

e.g. Meal plans, snack plans, and research substitutes when I am feeling like truffle cheese


??Take action including telling friends to hold me accountable

e.g. POSTING ON HERE.


So, this is me, in all my lactose-free glory. putting down the cheese and testing this way of tracking change.


Will you give it a go?
