New Year....New Behaviours!

Hello Everyone,

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

So, it’s New Year’s resolution time again!!! Or have you given up because they are never achieved?

Have you ever thought about why your New Year’s resolutions are not often achieved? Especially when we have such good intentions:

o Loose weight
o Find a new job
o Change career
o Start a new business
o Get closer to family
o Make more money
o Save more money and the list goes on!!!

So what are we doing wrong?

Are we mad? Possibly!!! Do you know what the definition of madness is? Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

How many of us actually think through what behaviours we need to change to achieve these ‘new’ goals?

If for the previous year you have eaten KFC, huge spoonfuls of rice with every meal, snacked on chocolate and chips and exercise only up to Carnival Saturday, why are you surprised you did not loose weight and if you do the same again this year, guess what? The same disappointment you felt this year, will be felt again!! We don’t need a crystal ball to see the outcome!!!

Also, if you intended to save $50,000 for the last year, but you went to all the Carnival fetes, bought clothes, ate out every week and went on vacations, no wonder you have no savings and owe your credit card company $000s.

So what is the answer?

I have found the missing ingredients!!!!!

BEHAVIOURS!!!!!

B old Statements to
E nhance my life
H abits stopped
A nd replaced with new ones
V isible progress leads to
I deal celebrations
O nce the resolutions are made, I need to
U nderstand the role of friends and family who will be
R eliable and supportive and who will help me to
S ucceed

So decide on the behaviours you need to change and let 2010 be your BEST YEAR YET!!!

Live YOUR Passion

Bye for now

Gina
