Think back to the beginning of 2005. Like most, you started the new year with many goals for success. What goals did you set? Maybe 2005 was the year you were going to lose weight, get a better job, make more money, meet someone or quit smoking.
How did it go?
Now that 2009 has officially ended let's look back and see how many of those goals were accomplish? And, if you didn't accomplish them, there's nothing wrong in admitting that.
New Year after New Year you have reflected on your past and promised yourself that this New Year would finally be different than all the rest. You've had goals before and you've made "resolutions" that you promised yourself that you would accomplish what you failed to accomplish in the past years. However, you still repeated the same behavior, which led to you not accomplishing your goals.
It was Albert Einstein who said, "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results." Why do you expect changes if you keep using the same formula to set your goals? Do you really think you will accomplish them? It may be time to take a different approach. If you're not willing to change your approach you will probably be ending 2010 the same way you have ended 2009 and, once again, nothing in your life will have changed.
Though setting and achieving a goal does not require the start of a new year, it does have a psychological effect. You feel like you are given the opportunity to wipe the slate clean and start fresh. The reason you want to wipe the slate is because of what you did not achieve. Individuals who achieve their goals don't want to start fresh; they want to remember and continue to build upon their past success. As successful individuals achieve their goals, they are constantly setting new goals and forward momentum is maintained, producing endless results. You do not need a new year to get
into action. What you need is to be resolved to produce results in your life. That is what making a resolution means, to be resolved to change behavior. I like to use your birthday, which is important to use and may be used to set your goals.
Anyway, in the past goals weren't accomplished because you tried to get different results without changing your behavior and taking the below mentioned steps for success. Well, Einstein said it right; it is crazy to think that the same old behavior will get you new results.
New Year 2010, let's begin forward motion by achieving goals on a more constance basics. Here are six action steps to achieve your goals and produce success in your life:
1) Start out with small goals. Don't try to make huge sweeping changes all at once. Pick some small goals that you can achieve in the next 30-60days.
2) Be completely committed to your goals by writing, or typing, them.
3) Read your goals every day and ask yourself what can you do today to assist in achieving them. In the past after you made your goals, you became busy and those goals were quickly
Remind yourself of them daily to ensure that you don't forget.
4) Put in place the task you decided would be beneficial to you on that day. Every movement forward takes you closer to your goals.
5) At the end of your day, read your goal again and ask yourself if you did something that helped you to achieve it. Make the necessary adjustments on your actions the following day when reading your goals again.
6) After achieving your goals, immediately make new 30-60 day goals and repeat the process.
Follow all of these steps and you celebrate a year of success when 2010 comes to an end. - 31955
