Hello First name / friend, It’s great to be here with you again as we continue the conversation about creating lasting change. By now, you might be making strides toward your goals—or you might feel like the initial excitement has waned, and things are harder to keep up with. If that’s the case, don’t worry—you’re in good company. |

Setbacks and slowdowns aren’t failures; they’re part of the process. In fact, they’re an opportunity to reflect, regroup, and refocus. Let’s take a look at how to maintain momentum when things start to feel tough. |
|
Reflect on Your Progress Take a moment to celebrate how far you’ve come. Whether it’s a small shift in your daily routine or the simple act of sticking with your intention, every step forward counts. When things don’t go as planned, reflection can be your greatest tool. Ask yourself: - What’s been my biggest win so far?
- What situations or emotions have led to setbacks?
- What adjustments could make my goals feel more achievable?

Remember Your Why Your "why" is your anchor, especially during the tougher days. Revisit it. If your original reason doesn’t quite resonate anymore, it’s okay to redefine it. Sometimes, the act of reflecting on your journey can uncover new layers of motivation you didn’t know you had. For example: - Original why: “I want to exercise daily to lose weight.”
- Refined why: “I want to move my body to feel strong and energised, so I can keep up with my kids and enjoy my hobbies long into the future. What I do today is a gift for future me.”
Which one makes your heart say, “Yes, let’s do this!”? |

Redefine Success Progress isn’t linear. Some days will feel effortless, while others might feel like a struggle. The key is to focus on consistency, not perfection. Small, consistent actions build powerful habits. For example: - Instead of aiming for a 30-minute workout, commit to just putting on your workout shoes and starting.
- Instead of eliminating an unhelpful habit completely, focus on reducing it gradually.

Reignite Your Motivation Here are a few tools to help you stay engaged: - Track Your Progress: A journal or app can make your wins visible and motivate you to keep going.
- Celebrate Milestones: Treat yourself to something special when you hit a goal, no matter how small.
- Adjust Your Plan: If your original goals feel overwhelming, break them down into smaller, more manageable steps.

And remember, setbacks are not the end—they’re just a reminder to adjust and keep moving forward. |

Need a Helping Hand? If you feel stuck, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Sometimes, a little outside support can make all the difference. Hypnotherapy is a powerful tool to help you re-align with your goals and build the habits you want to see flourish in your life. |

You’re doing amazing, even if it doesn’t always feel like it. Keep going—you’ve got this. X Marisa |
