NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS FOR '08
As the new year draws closer and many people are going into holiday mode, some people are thinking about the year ahead. It can be a time for reviewing the year that was and thinking about the year that will be.
Many people will be coming up with new year's resolution for 2008 even though they can't even remember what their new years reslution was for this current year! while many come up with a new year's resolution, they do so in a flippant, light hearted manner. We may commit to lose weight or save money, but before January is even finished we will be pigging out on chocolate and buying designer clothers or fast cars.
If you're going to take the time to come up wih a resolution for the new year ahead, why not make it a serious commitment? Treat it like a real goal that you plan to achieve.
Make sure you are Realistic about the Goal: The reason many goals are not achieved is because they are unrealistic. Your goals should be ambitious enough to get you out your comfort Zone, but realistic enough to be achievable.
Get clear about your Goal: Write your goal down in detail with time frames and specific number or objectives. If you want to lose weight this year, your goal could be to lose a set number of kilos of pounds each month, with a total to be lost before the end of 2008. Or you may choose to increase sales by 50% for the year, and an effort to achieve a good accadamic.
Set Mini Goals: Rather than just focusing on one major goal like saving 20 percent of a home loan for a deposit, have mini goals that are regularly achieved. If you have set yourself 12 months to save Rs. 12,000 your goal could be to save Rs. 1000/- each month. Which means your one goal of Rs. 12,000/- should be divided in to 12 mini goals of Rs. 1000/-.
Be Committed : Understand that if your goal or resolution is even slightly ambitious, it will take time, possibly money, dedication, persistence, and a lot of commitment. It may require further education, more work, risk, and a lot of sacrifice on your part for your family.
If you are serious about achieving your new year's resolution for 2008 it is worth taking the extra time necessary to get clear about what your resolution is and how it will be achieved. Don't be flippant about the next 12 months and use it to achieve something worthwhile. Some of the most common new years resolutions will be to lose weight, save more money, get out of debt, improve education, find a better job, join the gym, quit smoking, and to spend more time with the family. A lot of these changes will take a lot of commitment and dedication to achieve.
