Don’t be one of those people that discovers their New Year’s resolution yoga pants in the closet in June with the tags still attached.
Here’s our guide to making realistic, motivating resolutions!
1. Start with a purpose
Reflect back on the past year; what would you like to see change? Resolutions are much more powerful when you have lived the undesired state and have a drive to take a new direction.
2. Make both short-term and long-term decisions
Instead of expecting to change your life in January and feeling discouraged when that doesn’t happen, scatter your goals over the year. This will also help you understand if your strength lies in quick small changes, or bigger ongoing projects.
3. Team up!
Worried about slacking? Get a group of co-workers or friends together around a resolution to add some positive peer pressure.
4. Write it down.
Countless CEOs and other successful people preach the power of putting your goals onto a piece of paper to make them real. Why not create some beautiful word art of your resolutions and frame in a productive place in your house, like the kitchen? Seeing your goals will make you think of microchanges you can make every day to move towards them.
Focus more spiritually. Starting the year with the 21-day Daniel Fast. I have two large professional goals that should be completed in February if not they will definitely be done in March. Then a 5k in April. So a myriad of gals to cover all levels of personal gain!
I can’t wait to start adding more content to our health and wellness channel in the coming months. It seems that it’s a focus for a lot of people in the Red Carpet community this year!
