On the last Sunday of in December, As I sat for
my usual Sunday mani/pedi at The Spa my technician asked “so what are your
Resolutions for the New Year?” My response never changes…”I don’t make New Year resolutions.”
WHY I DO MAKE GOALS
Googles definition
of Resolution is: (1) A firm decision to
do or not do something. (2) The action of solving a problem, dispute, or
contentious matter. I don’t need the
mark of a New Year to do these things.
Every day I make firm decisions to do or not do things. Those decisions either actively help me to
solve problems, disputes or contentious matters or not. I am a firm believer that we make resolutions
daily consciously & subconsciously.
Results of any sort, comes from the firm choices that we make each moment
of our lives; not the ones we make on January 1st. I challenge you to live in the moment, make firm
decisions daily; however, be flexible enough to change those decisions if they
are not actively helping you to solve a problem, dispute, or contentious
matter. Just remember that in order to
do that you must be able to identify with yourself truthfully.
WHY I DO MAKE GOALS
Googles
definition of Goal is: The object of a person’s ambition or effort, an aim or
desired result. It’s important to make
goals. Goals keep up on task/focused (another
favorite word of mine). They give us
something to work towards daily.
Hopefully we all want something out of life. More importantly, the things that we want
should in some way improve our quality of life or the lives of those around us;
if not both. They don’t have to be
astronomical nor do you have to have a huge list of them. Remember, results come from a series of small
firm decisions. Decide what you’re going
to do, set a goal, crush your goal & then create a new goal….repeat….&
you will never have to make another New Year Resolution!
For those of you who do make resolutions/goals I would like to know how things are going? We are entering the third week of February which marks the half way point of the first quarter of the year. So it's a great Checkpoint. What are some of the things that you set out to do this year, are they NEW/DIFFERENT than in the past and what are you actively doing to make them happen? Whether you decide to share here or not, I hope that I gave you something to think about. Set some goals for yourself and actively work towards completing them. It brings a great sense of accomplishment and you will have me rooting for you every step of the way!
