January brings a commitment to accomplish resolutions for the new year ahead. One of my personal goals is to spend more quality time with my growing family. Many resolutions include the desire to get healthier, exercise more, start a new career, continue education, start a family or spend more time with your family etc.
Why are New Year’s resolutions so hard to keep sometimes? One of the biggest culprits of failure is that people set their resolutions up as long-term goals, but fail to set short-term goals directing them to the end result. Long term goals (lose weight, get promoted, earn a certain amount of income, be home more for the kids, date more…by the end of the next year) are directionless without short-term goals.
For your New Year’s resolution to succeed its helpful to keep your 12 month goal, but break it up into monthly goals. Go a step further and break it up into weekly and even daily goals. The two most important pieces of the puzzle are (1) having challenging yet attainable short-term goals that are clearly defined, and (2) that you consistently re-evaluate your short terms goals and modify as needed.
To help jumpstart your new year, Mami of Multiples is offering a $100 Cash Gift Card!
