Coaching Tip of the Month: New Year Resolutions
It’s likely that most of us have made at least one New Year’s resolutions at the beginning of 2010. You may have only casually thought about your resolutions, joked about them at a party or diligently wrote them down on paper. Unfortunately, too often it only takes a matter of weeks before these resolutions are lost and forgotten.
If you haven’t yet abandoned your New Year’s resolutions, congratulations! For those of you who may be struggling, perhaps its time to have a second look at your goals and the strategies you plan on using to achieve them.
If you are determined to make your goals a reality in 2010, the following tips should help:
Alignment
Align your goals with your values. Let your goals be a reflection of who you are and what you want.
Identify your strengths
Identify the qualities that make you special. Determine what you’re most passionate about and you’ll find your strengths.
Live with joy
Pay attention to what brings you happiness. Listen to what makes your heart sing — not just to what your brain says is in your best interest.
Overcome your fear
By acting on our fears, we overcome them and empower ourselves. Challenge yourself to take action whenever you feel fear and you’ll find yourself growing by leaps and bounds!
Don’t hold back!
Everyone has reasons to avoid expressing their thoughts and ideas. Stop worrying about why not and just speak your mind. So long as your opinion is tactful and honest, you’ve got nothing to lose.
