January 1st has arrived and you have probably
been contemplating what resolution you might want to attempt this year. Some of
the more popular goals people make are to lose weight, stop smoking, find a
better job, exercise, or make time to eat better. Whatever resolution you choose,
seeing yourself as you want to be is the key to personal growth in 2015.
Commitment
A study by the American Medical Association found that one
in five people will turn their New Year commitment into action. The rest will
have good intentions but stop working on their resolution in a few weeks.
“Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from
now and make a brand new ending.” Carl Bard
First, reflect on this year’s experiences. What did you
learn from them? How did you apply this knowledge to create a better life for
yourself? Then contemplate what you envision for yourself in the New Year and
what steps you need to take to get there.
Persevere
This year give yourself the gift of love and acceptance. Believe
in yourself. You are not a quitter. You are a strong, capable and resilient
person. Persevere and you will attain your goal. Write your goals and
intentions down. Read them aloud daily and visualize your success. Talk about the positive that is in your life
and be grateful. Take a class, read a book, and save the money to take that
trip. Put your family first. Try to understand each other more and forgive the
things that keep peace from entering your life. Be kind instead of right. Have
more fun and enjoy the journey of possibilities that the New Year can bring to
your life.
