A flashback to 2019 resolutions and what happened
Before we start please take out a moment and fill this survey on New year resolutions.
I make new year’s resolutions every year. and you might as well guess it right that the month of January is most active month of my year. Because, This is the month I spend my time, money and energy to achieve my resolutions. Later in the year I kind of loose track and slowly by the months of May and June I have already given up on those resolutions.
Do you relate to my story? Is it your story too?
Let’s take a look what are some common resolutions around the world from year 2019?
The most common resolutions for 2019. I am mentioning 5 of which coincide with my resolutions for year 2019 (At the end of article is link to the top 10 resolutions for 2019)
1. Exercise more every week(65 Percent of people wished to take care of their health. 71 percent even went on to add diet to resolutions)
2. Read more books and articles
3. Eat healthy (76 percent of people made it their resolution )
4. Learn a new skill
5. Save more money
See the references below.(studies on resolutions around world, stats, other blogs)
According to a research published by Inc.com“60 percent of us admit that we make New Year’s resolutions but ONLY about 8 percent of us are successful in achieving our new year resolutions“. Well, I definitely want to be in the 8 percent criteria this year. So I decided to change my approach to new year’s resolutions.
How to achieve resolutions for the year 2020?
Like, most of the people around the world, my daily chores and activities take my whole life and I end up in the other 92 Percent criteria who never achieve their resolutions fully or partially u. I have learnt the most important lesson very lately.
“Dont make resolutions set GREAT goals for the new year”
G – Don’t make the mistake of having too many resolutions. Make a list of 5 goals for yourself. Set GOALS for long term and short term.
R – Remind yourself constantly about the goals. Use the visualization boards or a fridge magnet to keep your resolutions infront of you all the time.
E – We all have known since we were 2 Repetition is key and practice makes a man perfect. Every small step counts. So doing something everyday to achieve goals and reach a little closer to achieving your resolutions.
A – Taking action is most important. Acting upon the reminders and doing a little bit every day keeps us hopefully and positively motivated and energized to achieve our resolutions this year.
T – Don’t we all know that we live once and our time is limited. Everyone gets the same amount of time. So when the time is right and you see an opportunity to achieve goal capture it. Time management goals for 2020

What is the game plan to achieve goals in the year 2020 ?
Did you know a research indicated that at least 49% of the people can never achieve their New year resolutions. So how can we ensure we don’t fall in that category.
Here is my CHECKLIST / GAME PLAN to ensure I set goals and achieve 80 percent from my new year resolutions within first 6 month’s
1. Visualization – Create a visualization board or just think about achieving it when you meditate in mornings. The more we believe we can achieve it the stronger our sub consciousness working on it.
2. Daily reminder – Setting an alarm, or putting a sticky note for self to work on goals. This small and insignificant but very effective activity can help us make a new habit.
3. One minute a day, EVERYDAY – I learnt in my happiness creation program that it is perfect approach to make new habit is to start with one minute a day but EVERYDAY.
4. Daily Tracker – when we color the bubbles, cross the box or just mark a column it is an achievement. Every little step is an achievement and will motivate us to win big next time. The best place to start is gratitude journal.
5. Plan it – A well planned speech is half delivered and so is every fight. This year make a plan for achieving a goal Plan how you will win for sure.
So friends what are we waiting for. Take out your journal’s and start listing your New Year’s Resolutions for 2020.
