Christmas is already over, and soon 2012 will be over too! Every year we all make New Year's Resolutions, and unfortunately most of us don't stick to them. Today I am going to give you 5 ways to keep your New Year's Resolution.
1. Think it Through - One of the biggest mistakes is making a resolution without fully thinking it through. Whatever your resolution, you have to figure out how to make it work or it probably wont work.
2. Recruit Help! - Don't tackle your resolution by yourself. Utilize your friends and family's experiences, encouragement, and support to help you stick to and achieve your goal.
3. Remember Last Year - Succeed in 2013 by remembering why your resolutions in 2012 didn't pan out. Remember that those who refuse to learn from their past are doomed to repeat it.
4. Take Small Steps - The overwhelming majority of resolutions involve changing patterns or behaviors that can not be changed overnight. Break your ultimate goal up into smaller challenges to help you reach your goal so its not such a large task but smaller tasks that all help you get to the desired end goal.
5. Dream Big - Resolutions have a better chance of succeeding if they are accomplished in small, manageable steps, but that doesn't mean you have to think small. If you set your sights to small, you might be more likely to quit because the goal isn't meaningful enough. Remember this is your chance to make this year better then the last one, so dream big, but remember to utilize these other tips to help your achieve your New Year's Resolution.
