Keep your 2010 Resolutions…

Saturday, January 2nd, 2010

New year's Resolution imagesThe Holidays have come and gone and you’ve zeroed in on a goal, a resolution. You’ve resolved  to eat healthier, save more, spend less, exercise more or whatever.  To accomplish goals and gain some momentum  make small changes.  For example, if you are going to save more, begin saving a little, consistently. Sudden changes that are too big are often unsustainable. Automate the financial ones, human beings are consistently inconsistent so automate  the financial ones, cut costs. Health related goals, unlike financial ones, require a bit more stategy, I’ve found. Begin with 5 minutes of exercise a day and add a little gradually until you are doing 30-45 minutes of cardio per day. If the last time you did a push up was more than a year ago begin slow.  An idea that’s a bit scary is finding someone to hold you accountable. An Accountability Partner is key to staying on track, I suggest you do some reaserch and find a AP… If you do these simple things, begin small, automate, and find an accountability partner you’ll increase the probability of achieving your 2010 goals.
