Rife With Resolutions
As December rolls to a close, do you find that the idea of making New Year's resolutions seems to be looming large? Perhaps it's time to consider how to have 2008’s resolutions usher in the time for meaningful changes in your life:
· Not making a serious commitment-if you made a pact with a relative or friend, would you not honor it? Time to make a non-negotiable commitment to yourself!
· What is your plan of action? - it IS necessary to plan the specific steps you'll take in order to reach your goal.
· Fuzzy focus- concentrating on all that you have to get done as opposed to how much you've accomplished, then getting overwhelmed and not finishing the task, project, etc.
· Not being part of a formalized schedule- try making an actual appointment with yourself in order to get the job done.
· Procrastinating- need I say any more? We all know about this "time thief"!
· Take time to really think about the people and/or things in your life that are unsatisfactory - figure out why you are keeping them in your life.
· Flexibility-this can be a tricky one! Rather than having too much wiggle room to rationalize why this resolution isn’t working, try to earnestly “tweak” it to have it mesh with changes in circumstances.
And remember, taking action is the catalyst for change!
