Do you make New Years resolutions every Year? So Just what is a resolution?
A resolution is a promise that you make to yourself. That is one of the biggest mistakes anyone can make. Because a promise to yourself, it way to easy to break. You need to make a promise to someone else and put it in writing. A promise to someone that you would never lie to, someone that you could never live up to with that kind of guilt.
No one is perfect and that is why resolutions are made in the first place, to make oneself a better person. There are all sorts of resolutions and can be made in all areas of your life. In family, personal, and business.
In family, you may make a resolution to spend more time with them. Be nicer to your spouse. Take your kids more places or just interact with them more. Call you Mom and Dad more often, and if you live far away, maybe visit with them more.
In your personal life, one of the biggest new year resolutions most people make is to loose weight. Another one is to stop smoking. These are two of the hardest ones people find to stick to. Exercise more, eat the right foods, drink more water and stay healthy are also on top of the list for personal improvement.
In business, you may make a resolution to, Get that raise! Some people want to go out on their own, and have a home business. People make a resolution to become their own boss and get out of the corporate world.
In order to meet all the new year resolutions you make, you need to know how to keep them. First of all you need to make a plan, set some goals. You need to have a direction. Write down everything you want to improve in your life and business and make a promise to someone other than yourself.
Take each thing you want to improve on step by step. Say you want to loose 20lbs., figure out what you have to cut out on food consumption and how much you need to exercise, then work back from that.
If you want to start your own business, figure out what type of business. If you want to have a home business so you can spend more time with your family, which is possibly one of your resolutions, then do some internet searches on what kind you want. Work your way backwards, from how much it will cost to how many hours it will take to get where you want to be.
No matter what type of new years resolution you have made, if you write it down, make a plan, set goals and take it step by step you will finally realize that making resolutions is not only easy, but it will turn your life around to the person you truly want to be. You will find that you are happier, your family is happier, your friends are happier and you will soon acquire the financial freedom that you have always dreamt of.
So if someone asks you this year, Are you going to have any new year resolutions?, You can answer with a big YES! And if they ask how are you going to keep them? You never have before! You can answer with, Because I Have A Plan and I know how to Make it Happen!
