 New Year REVOLUTION
Resolutions Suck! Read on...
Do you set New Year resolutions? If you did, you're in the company of about 40% of Americans. Also if you did, there's a 50/50 chance you're going to fail in your resolutions before the end of January!
That's depressing!
Why do we have such a hard time keeping New Year resolutions? Well, because resolutions suck! At least that's my opinion.
The experts have a more informed view on the matter. Psychiatrists at the University of Maryland Medical Center and University of Toronto have been puzzling over New Year resolution failure for some time. Their conclusions:
ü Most resolutions are too vague.
ü Goals are unrealistic.
As I said, resolutions suck! If you're going to succeed this year, forget the resolutions and start your New Year REVOLUTION. Change completely the way you look at setting goals for the New Year and start with specific, manageable goals you know you can accomplish.
To do this, you've first got to identify which goals excite you the most; to generate personal power you start with motivation. You've got to identify which goals provide the strongest motivation for you to take action.
I've found that most New Year goals fall into one of these two categories: things you want to do and things you want to stop doing! You've got to identify what you're really motivated to do or stop doing.
From there, you need an investigation phase. You've got to determine whether or not you've got the resources necessary to see these goals through to a successful conclusion. You've got to have material, emotional and spiritual resources in sufficient quantity to sustain your efforts. If you lack resources in a particular area, don't be discouraged: you may set new goals based on generating the resources you'll need to attack a larger ambition. This goal may become a more manageable first step in accomplishing something greater.
Once you determine what motivates you and what resources you have to bring to bear right now, you can prioritize your goals based on which goals give you the greatest probability of success. Those become your REVOLUTIONS for the coming year!

I once heard Master Jhoon Rhee say, "The source of all human energy is a goal." At the end of every year most people, at least informally, take some stock of where they are and where they want to go in the coming year.
In the New Year REVOLUTION program, I talk a lot about setting realistic and attainable goals; but what about the really big goals that resonate with every cell in your body and set your spirit soaring? Are these goals, in the parlance I so favor, simply bullshit?
NO!
Set ambitious, big, gigantic, huge, massive...sometimes even unrealistic goals! Just be sure that the big goal is understood in perspective as part of your motivation phase. Working from the big goal, identify smaller, specific and attainable goals that will produce success and start you on your way.
One of the most popular New Year resolutions is to quit smoking. Unfortunately, most people fail in that goal year after year. Still, it is an admirable goal and one that will greatly improve your quality of life. Start with the big goal of quitting entirely, but set this year's goal at reducing your smoking by a certain percentage. Set a percentage you know you can live with. Succeed in that goal and then establish another one.
Another popular goal is to get in shape or lose weight. Think about what your prime weight or conditioning level will be and use that as motivation. If you haven't been working out, however, running two miles tomorrow will likely leave you sore and discouraged. Start with a combined walk/run, add more running through the next several months.
This is not rocket science: it's common sense! Success is the product of goals and achievements. If you're not achieving, you'll soon run out of the energy you need to sustain your efforts. Simple, not easy.
Set your sites on the top of the mountain; then start your climb to the first camp. You may have to climb down to re-supply before going higher. It's hard to change your life in one year, but every small change you make is a year well spent and gets you closer to your personal vision of success.
