Making the Change. Your short guide to making new year’s resolutions stick.

Making the Change: 1. Prepare for Change.

Don’t knock the value of New Year’s Resolutions. To make changes in the beginning of the new year is a good place to start as any. It is however an approach that should be approached with intentionality. This means that your ideas and strategies and to-do lists shouldn’t remain in your head; it needs to be brought out into a visible plan of action that you can follow through with.

I invite you to engage with me as we explore tips, strategies and processes that I have found helps to make lasting changes.

The first one is - Prepare yourself for Change.

Decide that things need to change. Everything that you want is on the other side of your comfort zone. Decide that 2024 will be better than2023.

Consider the following statement:

“You are what you tolerate in your life”. – Tony Robbins

To what extent do you agree with this statement?

Ask yourself how important is the change you want to make? What are you willing to invest in terms of time and money?

I recommend that you buy a hard-back journal of at least A5 size so you can plan, contemplate strategize and mark your progress.

Meaningful and lasting change does not come easy. Imagine your world how it could be should you be able to maintain the change you aspire to.

Exercise:

Determine your readiness to change: what needs to change? Why does it need to change? What are you willing to give up to see the change through? How will you and others benefit should lasting change be achieved? Also answer the questions mentioned in previous paragraphs. Don’t rush it.

Then WRITE IT DOWN! Read it, commit to it. Your best life is about to occur.
