Do you set New Year’s resolutions every year but never see them through? If you’re ready to get serious this year, we’re ready to help you get there. Find out how you can stick to your plans this year and successfully carry out your 2020 resolutions!
Make a Strategy
Making a resolution is easy to do but following through is not. If you want to successfully carry out your 2020 resolutions this year, you need to make a strategy for how you will actually complete your goals. For example, if you want to save more money this year, the first thing you could do is write out a list of how you will achieve that – consolidate debt, find better rates for your mortgage and insurance, cut back on entertainment expenses, etc. Once you know what you need to do, you can then plan for how you will achieve it. This should include setting completion dates and writing out actionable steps. If you have a strategy in place, you’ll never have an excuse for not carrying out your resolutions.
Go Slow
Don’t set yourself up for failure by trying to do everything at once. If you’ve set some pretty ambitious goals, prioritize your list by putting the most important resolutions at the top. Then focus on one at a time, starting on the next only after you complete the first.
Reward Yourself
If you want to be motivated to carry out your New Year’s resolutions, you’ll need an incentive to put in all the work. Something you can look forward to that will drive you to succeed. Whether it’s a dinner out at a nice restaurant or a weekend getaway, reward yourself by celebrating your success.
Get the Family Involved
You need a support system to hold you accountable. Ask your family or spouse to check in on your to-do list and give you a little nudge if you’ve fallen off track. Better yet, get your family involved and assign them with small tasks to help you get those resolutions completed.
Find the Right Support
Surround yourself with people that have the tools to help you succeed. If you plan to lose weight this year, you are more likely to see your resolution through if you enlist the support of a fitness instructor. If you want to save more money, hire a mortgage advisor and insurance broker who can find you better rates and plans that will put more money in our pocket.
