New Years Resolution Quotes To Help Achieve Goals

By Lola Dohrman


Many individuals write out long lists of what they expect to achieve during the upcoming year. Only about five percent of all who make resolutions actually achieve their goals. There are varied reasons for this and knowing what they are will greatly enhance your ability to achieve your own goals. Utilize New Years resolution quotes to assist you on your journey.

Set realistic and timely goals for yourself. Don't choose a task that will take longer than a year. Select goals that are not too difficult but then again, not too hard. Choose aspirations that will challenge and stretch you to new levels. If you aim too high, you may become disenchanted and give up on your projects because they are out of your reach or too hard for your capabilities.

Don't say that "you will", "you might" or "you are going to". Say you are. For example, don't say "I am going to try to lose 50 pounds". Revise it and say "I will lose 50 pounds" or even better, speak as if it has already occurred and state "I have lost 50 pounds".

Be very clear when writing out your yearly aspirations. Don't state that you want to lose a lot of weight, state clearly exactly how much you want to take off. Instead of "I want to lose several pounds", revise and say "I want to lose 20 pounds".

The most important step of all is to write your goals out. Just this one simple step will dramatically increase your chances of actually attaining all you have reached for. Those who do not take this step will find themselves losing track of their resolutions and failing to reach their dreams.

Review your aspirations often. They may even need to be revised during the year. Choose a year mid-point to consider their importance. Goals change and may need to be re-written. If your birthday falls in the summer, this may be a good time. Otherwise, the Fourth of July or the very first day of summer may also be great revision points.

Some prefer the use of pictures as goals. For example, if one of your main drives is to buy a new car or home during the course of the year, you can cut out a picture of your dream vehicle or house and post it where you can see it every day. This will provide motivation to work hard at achieving these goals.

New Years resolution quotes can assist you achieve your dreams for the year. They will help you visualize exactly what it is that you want and help you achieve these aspirations. Moving forward and accomplishment is the ultimate goal of your list of wants and needs which could include material objects, travel, love interests and more.
