We fail because we focus on the wrong things.
Do you know why most of us fail in our New Year’s Resolutions? We focus on the things we should change and ignore the areas we are genuinely passionate about improving.
All of us have areas in our lives we want to improve. Until we decide where we want to commit our energy, nothing will change.
Resolutions fail. Plans work.
Decide what matters to you. Determine what success looks like to you. If you do now know, then achieving the goal is all but impossible.
Create a plan. Measure success.
Making a New Year’s resolution will not trigger change. Create a plan and have the grit to stick to it.
