084 – 7 steps towards achieving your best year ever.

I know that we’ve all been there before.  We’ve talked about what we’re going to do one the new year is upon us, like: loose 20lbs, start practicing an hour a day, build a new website, etc etc.  While all of these intentions come from a  great place, they are not based in reality because there usually isn’t a plan of attack to achieve these goals.  Studies show that most people give up on their New Year’s resolutions by January 15th, and even more shocking, have made the same New Year’s resolution over 5 times only to never achieve them.

With all of this being said, I’ll admit, I was one of those guys. I wanted to lose weight at the first of the year, practice more, learn more, etc etc BUT life “got in the way” and year after year I was making the same resolutions…without completing any of them.  This cycle went on for years until I started to research habits, changing habits and the science behind long-lasting change.  I share some of these tips that I’ve learned over the years.  They’ve worked for me and I hope that they can give you some insight into how you can fight your urge to give-up, equipped with a better plan rather than just “willpower”, which never lasts.
