New Years Resolutions Made Easy
--Louis Hart
According to Duke University Medical Center health psychologist Ruth Quillian
Wolever keeping New Years resolutions realistic and attainable is the key
to success.
And I couldn’t agree more – in my opinion keeping it simple
is the only way to make lasting change that you can stick with over the
long haul.
But I think she may have over looked one crucial ingredient in her recent
interview on Duke Med News – you also need to be specific about your
goals in order to take the necessary steps towards making them a reality.
For instance – resolutions like I’m going on a diet. Or I’m
going to lose 20 lbs. this year all lack the necessary action you need
to take in order to accomplish your goal.
And action is what you need in order to make resolutions happen – setting
goals is well and good. But until you start taking specific action all
they really are is fancy goals.
So this year for the sake of simplicity – I want you to try and focus
on just 1 or 2 goals that you want to accomplish. But instead of focusing
on the end result I want you to outline the actions you’re going
to take to make them come to life.
Here’s how you do it…
I’m Going to Lose 20 Lbs:
Probably the most popular New Years resolution there is – weight
loss. But the problem with making a blanket statement like that is you
have no specific plan of attack guiding you towards your success. Not to
mention what are you supposed to do once you do drop the 20 lbs. – what
then?
Do you drop the fad diet and go right back to eating the same foods that
put on the extra 20 lbs in the first place?
That’s why I recommend you break the task down into 1 or 2 actionable
steps that you can jump on immediately and never stop - that way you not
only reach your goal but you can stick with it over the long term.

For instance if you’re looking to drop a few extra pounds this year
why not resolve to quit drinking soda – or skip the donut and coffee
for breakfast and opt for a hard boiled egg and an apple instead.
Small changes like that are all it takes to make drastic long term improvements – as
long as you stay with them.
You see what I’m getting at here? When you focus on the action as
opposed to the result it allows you to direct your energy to the task at
hand - instead of the fact that you might be a little overweight or the
fact that diets are tough to follow.
I’m Quitting Smoking Forever:
Another New Years resolution favorite – but unfortunately for most
smokers it’s a lofty goal that’s much easier said than done.
Especially if you focus on the end result instead of the steps you need
to take in order to kick the habit.
So try this approach instead – come up with a time line that weans
your body from smoking over the course of a few months. And just focus
on smoking less every month until you’ve cut cigarettes from your
life forever.
Let’s say you smoke a pack a day – that’s 20 cigarettes.
Every month, starting in January you’re going cut out 2 cigarettes.
And if you can just stick to that simple action plan you’ll have
erased smoking from your life forever after just 10 short months.
I’m Going to Start Hitting the Gym:
Just as popular as losing weight is getting back into shape – but
a shapeless undefined goal like I’m going to start working out leaves
a lot of room for you to fall back into your old routine if things don’t
get off on the right foot.
That’s why I like to make things simple and ultra specific – here’s
what I would do. I’d come up with a plan to hit the gym for 15 minutes
a day at least twice a week. And I’d stick to it like glue.
Fifteen minutes a day two times a week is nothing in the grand scheme of
things but it can do wonders for your health, physique and your sex life.
And once you start feeling your juices flowing little by little you can
pick up the pace.
By the end of the year you could find yourself working out 3-4 days a week
for a half hour a shot and not even remember how you got back into working
out. One step at a time is all it takes.
Walking, biking a new Karate class – it doesn’t matter as long
as you have a definitive plan in mind.
Are you starting to see where I’m going with this? You don’t
focus on the finish line – for now you just pay attention to running
fast. Just putting one foot in front of the other is an accomplishment
in itself.

I know why the prostate supplement you’re currently taking is a total
bust – it’s missing one very key ingredient!
But don’t blame your manufacturer – until now the healing power
of this super food has been hidden behind a near inpenetratable husk no
thicker than a piece of paper. But thanks to a little help from modern
science, we’ve finally cracked the code to total prostate relief!

There’s no need to burden yourself with the pressures of winning
just yet. But the best part is – slow and steady does win the race.
Sure the guy that lives next door might go out and buy a home gym and start
on a fad diet and lose 20 lbs. by the end of January. But can he or a better
question is will he keep it going all year long.
Remember fad diets don’t work – and trying to force yourself
to go to the gym 5 times a week for an hour when you haven’t exercised
in years can leave a really bad taste in your mouth.
So where’s your neighbor going to be this time next year or the year
after that? I’ll tell you where, right back where he started making
the same resolution he made the year before.
That’s why we’re taking the methodical approach, this year
don’t bite off more than you can chew. Pick one or two goals you’d
like to accomplish and come up with a specific plan on how you can accomplish
them.
Then come January 1st put your plan into action. Start taking those baby
steps right away and stop to remind yourself how good it feels to not only
lose weight or quit smoking or whatever your resolution might be.
But stop and think for a second how good it feels to set goals for yourself
and then accomplish then – you might just find you don’t ever
want it to stop.
Do that and 2007 could be your most rewarding year ever – so good
luck! Not that you need it.
Have a Healthy and Happy New Year!
