Good morning and Happy New Year
Right now, while you still have some alcohol and fat in your body from last nights' New Year's Eve party, it's time to make your New Year’s resolutions.
You may ask - Why make resolutions? You need to make them so that you can become a better you, a more-attractive you, an organized you, a healthier you, in short - less like you. Forget the reason, do it because it is customary to do so.
Making resolutions is easy, the problem is sticking to them. A group of psychologists wanted to study the reasons why people don't stick to their New Year resolutions. The first week they found 90% of the study people stuck to their resolutions. After 2 weeks, we have no idea what happened, because the scientists stopped monitoring!
Here are some suggestions to enable you to stick to your goals
MAKE REALISTIC RESOLUTION - Here is an example of an unrealistic Goal ''I will lose 10 kgs this year ”. A realistic goal would be “I will drink only 2 pegs in a party and gain only 5 kgs.”
MAKE INTERESTING ALTERNATE RESOLUTION
Typical Resolution 1 - Save money for the rainy day
Interesting alternative 1 - Enjoy the rain dance today
Typical Resolution 2 - Spend more time with your family
Interesting alternative 2 - Spend more time with your secretary (male/female as applicable)
MAKE POSITIVE RESOLUTIONS - To succeed, you must believe in yourself. Write this motivational statement in large letters on a piece of paper and tape it someplace where you will see it often, such as on the inside of your eyeglasses
'I can do it, and I will do it , starting next year .. 2013'
