Simple tips to help you keep your New

Year's resolution over the course of

2016

1. Set simple goals and commitments

Dont make things too difficult for yourself from the start. One of the biggest reasons we fail
at our resolutions is that we set unreachable goals. We set resolutions that are just too damn
difficult to stick to.
Theres an alternative
Instead of setting big goals this year, come up with 3-4 small commitments that you know
you can stick to.
Heres a simple example to look at

Instead of setting a big goal like I want to lose 3 kgs by April

Set small, simple commitments like this
Commitment: I will get up and walk for 30 minutes 3 days a week
Commitment: I will stop putting sugar in my coffee.
Commitment: I will stop drinking Coke.
Dont underestimate the power of these little commitments. When strung together over time,
they can lead to some astonishing changes.
And the best part?
Unlike goals, commitments are not results-driven. That means you have control over them.
You either do them or you dont. You either go for your 30 minute walk, or you dont. The
results are just a byproduct.
Do This: Come up with 3-4 important commitments that you want to stick to in 2016.

2. Use a (commitment) journal

One of the best ways to keep track of your progress over the year is to use a journal.
And dont think that journals have to be complicated. In fact, they shouldnt be.
All you need to track is your commitment success rate. Each day, jot down what commitments
you completed, what commitments your skipped, and (most importantly) why you skipped
them.
Then get in the habit of regularly (once a week) reviewing your journal to see how you did.
This mini-reflection period will help you optimize your commitments (and priorities) going
forward.
Do This: Get a journal and write out your commitments in it.

3. Get an accountability partner

Its difficult to do things on your own.
Every journey, no matter how simple in nature, will have bumps and obstacles along the way.
Thats why you need someone to help you stick through the rough times. You need an
accountability partner.
Find someone who has your best interests in mind. Someone you trust. Then simply share
your commitments with them.
Tell them what youre trying to accomplish. Ask them to review your journal once every
couple of weeks to make sure youre sticking to your commitments.
Most importantly, make sure they will have the courage to tell you when youre falling off the
path.
Do This: Find your accountability partner and share your commitments with them.

4. Start early
Why wait until January 1st to get started when you can start today?

If you really want to achieve your goals in 2016, you have to get the momentum rolling today.
Dont get in the habit of putting things off as procrastination often leads to inactivity.
If you really want something, go for it now!
Do This: Use this final week of 2015 to give yourself a head start for the new year. Start
sticking to your commitments today.

5. Stay consistent. Make mistakes

The most important tip I can give you can be summarized in one word
Consistency.
Be consistent with your commitments and youll achieve more than you ever thought
possible.
And if you slip up and fall off track, thats completely fine.
Nobody is perfect.
And those who try to be are the ones who often fail at sticking to their resolutions over the
long-run.
Give yourself the freedom to make mistakes because they are part of the journey. Take note of
them in your journal and understand what caused them. Then fix them going forward.
