Resolution Review

It is 10 days into the new year and a good time to review your progress with your New Year's Resolutions.

Whether your resolution has to do with weight loss, personal professional development, family time...etc It is always a good idea to review your progress towards your goals. Hopefully you have written down your goals for the year. If you have then give yourself a big pat on the back because only 5% of the population ever writes down a goal! Those that do achieve them over 99% of the time. There is something magical about putting your goals on paper! The very act of writing them down imprints them on your subconcious mind thereby giving you the ability to focus on them 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Your subconcious mind is the engine that drives everything you do.

If you have not written down your goals then do so immediately. You will reap the benefits of this excercise all year long. Make a goal board and put all your goals on the board and enhance them with pictures of the desired reult you want. If you want to lose weight put the total amount of weight you want to lose on the board. Ad a picture of yourself when you were thinner. If you are saving for a vacation to Hawaii then ad a picture of the beach at Honolulu. If you want to spend more quality time with your family then put a family photo on the board. Place the board in a location that will serve as a daily reminder. It will help keep you focused and moving in the right direction.

"Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; Nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude."

Thomas Jefferson
