WHAT NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS HAVE YOU MADE?
Don’t be ashamed if the answer is “none yet” and maybe this post is a little predictable. Since it’s that time of year when we start putting together well-intentioned New Years resolutions, I couldn’t resist posting once on this topic.
The earlier you set goals the more you can be prepared so that you don’t make excuses or stop before you’ve even begun. Plus you can plan ahead to set yourself up for success.
I’m not a fan of setting short term goals unless they are part of a long term goal so that they’re baby steps on a mission and road to somewhere. So whilst I may do a quick detox to get rid of some of the alcohol and toxins I imbibed, I don’t have any 30 day or 12 week challenges in my future. These maybe a great thing for some people, they just don’t work with my goals. For others, these plans can work fantastically as they offer quick results and create new habits; just make sure that you have a plan in place for after that period of time so that you can maintain the results.
