In with a Bang, or Fizzle Out?

Happy Near Year!

Tonight is when people make their resolutions, ready to start 2015 off with a BANG!
Within a week, most have Fizzled Out? :(
Why is that?

Many reasons, some of the main ones are:

First, they didn't write it down and they weren't specific about what they really want.

Second, they don't know why they want to achieve their goals.

Third, they didn't have a plan of action about how they are going to achieve their goal.

Fourth, they didn't implement new habits that would help them achieve their goal, step by step, inch by inch.

So this year, do me a favour, ok?

1. Write down what you WANT, specifically. Not "I want to lose weight" or " I want to make more money". Write down e.g. "I now weigh 80Kg, with 18% body fat" or "I now have $20,000 in my investment account".

2. List reasons WHY, at least 20 reason, preferably 100 reasons, e.g. I now weigh 80kg. SO THAT... I can get healthy, so I can be around to dance at my grand-kids weddings, so that I look sexy, so that I can remain independent in my retirement, etc. etc. etc.

3. Make a PLAN, e.g. throw out all the junk food in the house (and don't buy any more), design a weekly meal plan, join a gym, etc. etc.

4. Identify 5 things that you can do every day, that will inch you towards your goals, e.g. drink water, only one milky coffee per day, take the stairs when available, take lunches to work, exercise or movement daily.

Now who do you  think has more chance of achieving their goals? The person making a drunken decision on New Years Eve, or the person who has a specific written goal, reasons why they will achieve that goal, a plan of action towards achieving that goal, and a new habits that will propel them to success?

The answer is obvious isn't it? The 'secret' of success is really not so secret. It takes a dream, a plan, actions, and commitment to completion.

YOU CAN DO THIS.
