New
Year Resolutions
So you made another New Year
resolution. Again this year you may be thinking
about getting in shape; losing a few pounds, acquiring a
better diet or giving up a bad habit. A lot of us make these
promises to ourselves every year but for a number of reasons
they just do not happen. That is primarily because we really
don’t make a solid commitment or our promise is not managed
with specific goal achievement objectives. Here are a few easy steps to
help you achieve your goal.
-
Be specific.
-
State
exactly what you want to achieve, and the length of time
you need to achieve it. If there is not an exact and
specific goal you won’t know when you reach it.
-
Make it measurable.
-
Choose an
objective or goal that will have measurable results. If
you don’t measure it, it probably won’t happen.
-
Insure that your goal is attainable.
-
Determine
if your goal is reasonable and within your capabilities.
-
Is your goal
relevant.
Is your goal relevant to you, your
health, and within your capabilities.
-
Establish a time
limit for success.
Plan a
series of small goals or steps that build on each other.
Setting several short term tasks that collectively make
up your goal will be measurable and provide a step by
step process to achievement.
If you don’t think you are in good health
it’s time for you to do something about it.
If you follow these guide lines you just may make this New
Year’s resolution a success. Hey, it’s worth a try
Have a happy and healthy new year.
