I'm David and welcome back to another Mojo minute. Did you know one of the easiest, and yet most effective ways to improve any aspect of your life, is to simply measure and track it. The body. This is so significant that it's a very big deal in research studies. So in a recent research group they gave some folks a pedometer as part of a randomized control group. And what happened the folks with a pedometer, increase their walking by 27%, and that resulted in them walking, an extra mile on average per day. The other group No such luck. They walk the same amount of steps as before. That's crazy, but true. Having been a personal trainer in gyms, I can tell you my clients who lost their most significant weight kept a food log of everything. They ate, they were measuring, and they were tracking, and it sounds like I probably need to do some measuring and tracking myself. But let's, let's ask get back on track. The measuring and tracking is interesting because we all know this, we all do it with our own personal finances. Oh the checking account is getting low. Okay, let me check all the purchases from last week and I will start to be more mindful of my spending habits, and we will actually begin to write everything down, that we spend money on, we've all done this, and boom, that's measuring and tracking. So, in today's Mojo minute, what's the one area in your life that could use some measuring and tracking. I told you my food logging. Will I see you on my fitness pal, with me, measuring and tracking your food. Now, how about you. What part of your life could use some measuring and tracking. Let's put theory into action, moment to moment to moment, measuring and tracking all the way.
