New Year Resolutions that Work

It’s this time of the year when a lot of people take time out to reflect on what they’ve achieved and commit to projects or lifestyle changes for the new coming year.

According to previous surveys, many will have broken their resolutions by the end of January.

As a life coach, I recommend to my clients not to wait for the beginning of the year to make resolutions but to decide to live a happy and fulfilling life every month, every day and every minute of the year.

If you have decided to make a New Year resolution, here are my

10 Steps to Keep your New Year Resolutions:

1 - Start something that you know YOU want to do.

2 - Concentrate on one thing for now.

3 - Treat your resolution as a goal and make it SMART:

Make it Specific: Describe what would you like to achieve in detail and be specific. How much weight do you want to lose? Why do you want to achieve this? What it will give you?

Make it Measurable: Imagine you have achieved your resolution. What difference will that make to your life? How will you know you have achieved it?

Make it Achievable: How far is achieving this goal under your control? Do you have enough time to achieve it?

Make it Realistic: Do you have the skills and resources to achieve your goal?

Make it Time-framed: When do you want to have achieved your goal by?

4 - Visualize the end result.

Write down what you want to achieve, make a vision board of it and place it where you can see it every day. This is classic law of attraction theory. Imagine what it will feel like when you have achieved it.

5 - Write down the steps.

What do you need to do in order to achieve your goal? List all your options and tasks and set yourself deadlines. What are you going to commit to do in the next few weeks?

6 - Tell the important people in your life about your New Year resolution.

This will make it more real.

7 - Keep track of your progress.

If you see that you are progressing, it will encourage you to continue.

8 - Be positive and forgiving.

If things are difficult and you have setbacks, be positive towards yourself. Ask yourself this: if you beat yourself up, will that help you to achieve your goals? Be kind to yourself. It’s OK to have a bad day.

9 - Reward yourself.

10 - Enjoy the process!
