So you ate, drank and spent too much over
Holidays. Now you are overweight, bloated, tired and broke, and you are promising yourself that you are going to change all that this year! There are two reasons why New Year Resolutions don't work;
1st we try and take on too much, 2nd we don't believe in ourselves. In
world of resolutions, "Size does matter". You can turn your resolutions into realities by starting small. As
saying goes, "the only way to eat an elephant is one bite at a time!"
At
start of each New Year we begin by looking at our life and deciding this is
year we are going to make real changes in weight, romance, smoking, drinking, career, money, getting in shape, organizing, cleaning and more. Well, we never followed through in all
other years, so as good as our intentions and desires are our subconscious is not expecting our resolution to come true. We have conditioned ourselves to doubt our ability to change. This core lack of belief triggers a lack of commitment to action and
result is
same year after year: not pursuing our goals with consistent action.
Well you have said it before, "This year is
year I _______!" Sound familiar? You have said it and you have not done it, but there is a way to make your goals materialize. Here is Coach Steele's abbreviated "Resolution Success System!"
Step One: Learn and use this Success System. One you learn
system you can apply
system over and over again with success in every area of your life. Concentrate on
system not
goal.
Step Two: "Pick one, and get it done" as a friend of mine is fond of saying. Make sure you are picking something that you really want to achieve. You can't lose weight, stop smoking, or get an education because someone else wants you to. If you really want something you will do what it takes.
Step Three: Reduce this goal to manageable pieces. Set goals that are what you believe you can achieve in one month. Remember size does count and focusing your energy on one goal to be accomplished in 30 days gives us something tangible. If you don't believe you can do it you won't be able to.
