With 2021 another year is coming to its end and becoming history. It means, you are again preparing for the year-end get-together with your near and dear ones, you will be also counting which goals you were not able to achieve this year. So, you might also be thinking about a new year’s resolution just like all the previous years. New Year Resolution is something which is followed with a heart for a week or a month and not the whole year because suddenly you begin to realize that the plan won’t work for you. If you think deeply then you will find that reasons for your New Year Resolutions not to work are actually your excuses. But if you follow some easy tips and ideas to make your New Year Resolutions work- won’t that be great?
Apart from planning your year-end party and sorting the New Year Gifts, also outline your new goals for 2022. Here are some of the easy tips and ideas about New Year Resolutions.
Plan In Advance
You don’t have to plan a New Year Resolution right on 31st December and announce when it is only 10 seconds to go for 2022. See your life closely and check which areas need improvements. Then plan to improve those areas. It can be writing, quitting smoking, reading, or a weight loss plan, etc. But plan by 5-10 days or a week before the New Year starts. And planning doesn’t just entail thinking. Go and buy stuff and decorate your home-all that is required to achieve that goal.
Always Start With Baby Steps
“Rome was not built in a day” you must have heard that idiom. Apply that to your life too. You cannot achieve everything you plan in a single day because everything requires time. So, start with little steps and act smartly. For example, if you want to improve your writing, start practicing for some time every day. In that way, goals would be achieved.
Action Plan- In All Details
If your goal is to quit smoking or drinking, then instead of trying to reduce the quantity, try to focus on the things to do when you feel a desire to smoke or drink. Change your friend circle with whom you take a break. So, figure out the times of the day when you usually smoke or drink, and in those times try to keep yourself busy in casual sports or something creative like painting or gardening.
Nurture A Habit
Life is nothing more than just a habit. Why do you brush your teeth in the morning? Or why do you want a glass of fresh juice and bread as breakfast? It’s all about a habit. Some habits have been taught to you when you were a child and that remains as part of your life and some habits you have formed over the years with your own experience. So, when you have a New Year Resolution plan in your mind, start thinking about that objective while brushing, bathing, or having breakfast. So, ultimately your actions for the day will be focused on achieving that goal only.
No Need To Tell People
Most of us do this – right? We tend to reveal our New Year’s Resolutions to people. Please don’t do that if you want to achieve a certain goal. Because at the New Year Eve Party, everyone is in high spirits and they will applaud you. So, you feel as if you have already achieved the goal even when the “resolution” is still a thought in your mind. So, the easy tip is – never to announce your New Year Resolution to people. They will see the change when they meet you later.
Partner With Someone
Partnering with someone having similar goals is one of the best ideas. Because you can then compete with each other and improve or track each other’s achievements. When one is feeling demotivated, the other one can help to boost confidence. So, find that friend with the same goals and start working to achieve those goals.
Be Positive
Attaining the New Year Resolutions will not be a cakewalk. But it is all about your determination that would decide whether you would stick to the game or not. So, with a few setbacks, don’t give up. Staying positive is the keyword here. Don’t look more than once at these obstacles or count on the failures. Instead, take the baby steps and enjoy small achievements on your way.
Track Your Progress
At the beginning of every new week, check what you achieved in the previous week. Track your progress well and work carefully towards the loopholes.
So, start planning now about your resolutions so that with the dawn of 2022 there is a new YOU. With a positive attitude, stick to your objectives and cherish the results at the next New Year Celebration.
