This kicks New Year’s Resolutions booty. Around this time of year, many good hearted people set resolutions for the next 12 months to achieve:
- Better health
- More time with family
- Save and earn more income
The stats show most never stick with them past a few weeks. Now, it’s not that resolutions don’t work. Resolutions are basically like promises you give to yourself that you’ll do something. It’s just that most people don’t take these promises to themselves very seriously.
Is this making sense? A better way to go in my opinion is to make New Year’s commitments. The typical way of setting resolutions or goals for the year is basically telling yourself, “I’ll try” which means, “Don’t count on it”. A commitment to yourself means, “Count on it.”
It’s an announcement to the world that you will do the actions to accomplish what you set out to. This all begins with making a declaration, “I am committed to.” Now, what’s sobering and true? What you have been committed to up to now is revealed by what you have produced or have failed to produce up to now. For the new year, what are you 100% committed to getting for yourself and your family?
What will your commitments produce? More time off, more income, more freedom, travel or giving back to others? It’s all a matter of setting the path of how to get there from point A to B. Then staying committed to that path and declaration you made with yourself. If you need help with a proven step by step path like this:
I don’t know what you’re commitments will be this year but I do know that 2019 will be here before we know it.
