One Reason Resolutions Fail

One reason why so many people fail at their New Year’s resolutions is because they choose things that they actually have very little direct influence over.

For example, many people decide that they’re going to lose weight. But, unfortunately, losing weight is not a behavior.

Losing weight is an outcome not an action. Making that resolution sounds good, but it doesn’t address at all what you actually need to DO.

If you want to make your New Year’s resolution stick, rather than simply listing the outcomes you want to achieve, resolve to perform a list of ACTIONS that will bring about those outcomes.

Then, when you begin execute those actions with consistency, the outcomes you’re hoping for will gradually begin to appear.
