Make Your New Year’s Resolutions Stick!

It is almost the New Year and everybody is deciding on what they are going to resolve to do this year. Some people try to recreate themselves, some people try to get healthier, and some people try to reach their career goals.

One of the things I want to discuss is why only 8% of people’s resolutions actually work out. There are many reasons behind it. One is that you are too busy to follow through. Another is that you are not organized enough to stick to it. A lot of people think that they can stick to their resolutions without any help, especially in business. And one of the biggest things is that most people have to play catch-up before they can even start approaching their new goals.

So how can you make your resolutions stick? First you need to think of them as goals. You don’t want a resolution that you make and then as soon as the next year comes you drop it for the next change. You need to have a measurable goal. If you want to increase your income, you need to figure out your monthly, weekly, and yearly goals and steps to get there. Documenting your steps, and having manageable goals will go a long way to get you where you want to be.

Another thing you can do is get help from those who can help you! If you have friends who can help you get healthier, call them! If you need help with your work, consider hiring an assistant, or even a virtual assistant. Don’t think that you can take on the world alone. Everybody needs a little help sometimes. If you have catching up to do before you can start your new goals, ask for help to get you there.
