Summary

This episode is about what you do when the newness of a program or “fresh start” wears off.

In her book, Mary Kay Ash, founder of Mary Kay Cosmetics, shares that the anticipation of getting something is usually better than actually getting it.

(Not always. Sometimes it's WAY better, like the new dress I just bought! But mostly, she's right.)

Very often the excitement and anticipation dwindle before you even get what it is you're going for!

The point is, newness always wears off, and that's when a lot of people go looking for some new way to feel excited instead of continuing to do what works just because it's not "new and exciting" anymore.

I see this every single time on the Facebook 10 Pound Takedown.

The week leading up to Day 1 and Day 1 itself have the most posting and engagement. The excitement is palpable.

But once Day 1 hits, people start dropping off, because the dopamine hit they got from "a new start" begins to fade (which it always does, no matter the situation).

People who succeed with anything for more than five seconds know how to keep going even after the initial excitement wears off.

The question is, how do you keep going even when it's not new and exciting anymore...

So you can finally get the result you've been trying to get for eons, but still don't have because you program hop or fizzle out?

Tune into this week's new podcast episode about what to do when the newness wears off...

Especially because it applies to WAY more than weight loss.

1:16.2	She talks about anticipating something is far better than the actual something.
1:23.2	Now, I don't really agree with that in every single thing in life because I just bought a dress and I was excited to get it.
1:33.9	But Katie bar the door, it is way better than I thought it was going to be.
1:37.9	So the actual, the actual dress itself is better than the anticipation of it.
1:43.1	So, but for the most part, I agree with Mary Kay.
