If you planned some New Year resolutions here’s a reminder; it’s already February. Research shows that 29 January is the best day to make a resolution and stick to it. So you are not too late!! Regardless of your ambitions or progress, here are three simple tips that will make your newly found commitments come true.
- Tip #1: Tell People about your Resolutions. Once you tell others about your upcoming projects, you consciously commit to them. It is kind of a verbal contract towards which you’ll feel obligated. Now, email us your New Year resolutions!
- Tip #2: Clarify Your Resolutions. To attain your New Year Resolutions, be sure that they are clear enough. Any business professional will tell you that objectives and goals have to be SMART; Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-based. Think about your commitments before proceeding.
- Tip #3: Stop focusing on the End Result. It sounds counterintuitive, but you do not have to focus on the end result. For example if you plan to learn painting, it is important to understand that it is an extremely long process without shortcuts. Learn to enjoy the journey, rather than blindly stampeding towards the destination. The Journey is what matters.
