How to make meaningful New Year's resolutions

Dec 31 2014

 

For some of us, every year, on new year’s eve, comes the question – what is your New Year’s resolution? By this time, some of us are intoxicated – others are tired from hearing the same question, year after year. The response is then some silly, unachievable goal that is never really thought through properly. The “resolution” is forgotten by week 2 in January, as we start to fall back into our old habits. As they say, old habits die hard.

So what do you do? How do you make a plan or a goal, and really try and achieve it in the next 365 days?

The key (we believe), is to focus on your fears. Your fears are what holds you back from the world of unlimited possibilities. Fear is the evil that chains you down, that stops you from changing and from achieving what it is that you really what to achieve.

If you have children, take a look at them. Really study them. This is because they can be the key to understanding the beauty of having no fear. Most (and we say most because quite often, the parent’s fears are unconsciously passed onto their children), most children when confronted with something they have never experienced before, will embrace it unequivocally. They may question it, but they do not have any initial fear. Then quite often, we rush in (as parents or guardians), and instil fear in them, by telling them what it is that can go wrong. But what about the things that can go right?

So this year, why don’t you take a moment to yourself. Think about what it is that you fear. Is it the fear of being mocked? Or is it the fear of failure? Make a list of these fears (and be honest with yourself!). No one needs to see your list.

Make your resolutions based on overcoming these fears. Be honest with yourself. It won’t be easy. But it is possible. Then you will know no boundaries.
