9 TIPS TO FOLLOW YOUR NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS 1. BE REALISTIC WITH YOURSELF: Set goals that are realistic for you to accomplish. If you set your goals too high, then you’re setting yourself up for failure. Always start small and then build up from there. 2. PLAN AHEAD: Don’t try to pick a New Year’s resolution the day before the new year. Start thinking of a goal weeks before so you can start to prepare for it. If you make a decision at the last minute, it may be something that you were just thinking about that day and not something that you truly want to accomplish in your life.

3. MAKE A PLAN: Create a plan of action to help you stay on top of your New Year’s resolution. Write out ways that will help you stay accountable for your actions and ways that will help you resist temptations. Try to stay one step ahead of everything so you know how to act if something were to come up last minute. 4. GO THROUGH THE PROS AND CONS: Develop a list of good and bad items that reflect your New Year’s resolution to keep you motivated. Keep your list with you at all times, especially when you need a little extra push. 5. GET TALKING: Share your New Year’s resolution with family and friends to help you stay accountable for your actions and to give you extra support. If you can find someone else who shares the same goal as you, then you can both motivate each other. 6. REWARD YOURSELF: For a little extra motivation, set a reward to give yourself after achieving your New Year’s resolution. Choose something that you enjoy and won’t counteract your goal. 7. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS: Write down small successes along the way to keep you motivated and moving forward. This allows you to reflect on how far you have come and what goals you want to set next. 8. DON’T BEAT YOURSELF UP: If you fall off track one day, try not to beat yourself up over it. Remember that tomorrow is a new day to start over and get right back on track.

9. BE DILIGENT AND DON’T GIVE UP: The more you practice your new goal, the sooner it will develop into a habit and eventually into a lifestyle. Be patient and persistent, and over time you will start to see the results you are looking for.
