It seems
to be a positive yet common approach to the New Year that everyone approaches
the new year as a chance to improve on certain aspects in their life, open a
new book to a fresh page, and work their way to being a ‘better you’. The
feelings of excitement, determination, and ambition are undeniably floating
around in the air.
As good
as one’s intentions might be once we settle into the regular, non-holiday
routine our New Year’s goals and resolutions seem to fall to the waste side. I
know for me personally, I start out the year with all of these ambitious and
can do New Year’s Goals, but in all honesty I think the biggest enemy of not
completing those goals is time. But sometimes you just have to prioritize and
maybe not spend so much time on one thing so you can fit a new thing in. In the
hopes of helping you stick to if not all than most of your New Year’s
Goals/Resolutions I though I would share a few tips with you that I have come
across to help you accomplish those Resolutions!
1.
Identify
your most realistic resolutions// Some of us {me included} can get a little
carried away with our New Year’s Resolutions. Think long-term and break these
resolutions down into chunks so you don’t get overwhelmed.
2.
Make
a List// Once you have identify your most realistic resolutions write them down
3.
Focus
on once resolution at a time// It can be a little daunting to fit all these new
goals into your daily/weekly schedule. Instead of trying to fit 5+ new things
into your week slowly work each one at a time. With New Year’s Goals – you have
to remember, it’s not a race, it’s a marathon, and at the end of the day you
should find enjoyment in accomplish these goals versus feeling stressed by
them.
4.
Don’t
be too hard on your self// When trying to achieve a new goal, master a new
skill, etc. set backs are to be expected. Don’t be too hard on yourself –
everyone has ups and downs.
5.
Talk
about your goals// Don’t be afraid to talk about your goals – your family and
friends will always be there to support you and offer a listening ear
