So you made a list of goals and targets for 2008, and you are not even finished the first week of January and you've abandoned the whole lot!...or at least some of them! Sound familiar? Your best intentions about getting fit, quitting the cigarettes and changing jobs are well placed but how do you turn these intentions into your success story of the year?
Often we pile on a ton of things we'll give up, never eat, never drink, must do, will never do again and so on, as resolutions. We put ourselves under pressure and give ourselves unrealistic goals and times in which to achieve them. Most of the time we aren't even clear about what it is we want to put down as a resolution or goal!
The clearer you are about what it is you want to achieve the better. Sure...getting fit is a great idea, but what exactly do you mean by 'getting fit'? If you can jot down a list of ideas about what it means to you, for e.g. getting back into a pair of jeans you love, having more energy, feeling happier about yourself, then you make it more specific.
If it helps how about trying the following -
Be specific about just one of your goals
Commit to giving it a shot for the month of January only
Small steps are better than no steps!
