Make Your New Year’s Resolutions Finally Stick
Beyond Habits: A Radical New Approach to Making and Keeping Your New Year’s Resolutions
Every January, millions of people set ambitious New Year’s resolutions. Yet by February, most have abandoned them—not due to a lack of effort or desire, but because traditional approaches to change simply don’t work . . . at least not over the long run.
Why Do New Year’s Resolutions Fail So Miserably
Even When You’ve Done Everything Right?
Most people fail to make their resolutions stick because they use strategies that sound good (the top three are all health-related) and seem reasonable . . . yet year after year, those strategies fail to work.
If you’ve seen your own good new year’s resolutions turn bad, you’re not alone. In fact, 91% of Americans fail to keep their resolutions.
You may have done all everything right, such as:
Made a list of goals and optimized them by making them SMART
Made sure you were motivated by focusing on the “why”
Created small habits
Celebrated success
Expressed gratitude
Recruited an accountability buddy
But at the start of each new year, you find yourself replicating the same list of resolutions you made the year before . . . and the year before that . . . and the year before that.
The truth is, common approaches to setting and keeping New Year’s resolutions fail for a host of reasons–from how you define your goals, build and sustain motivation, and mark progress, to how you marshall various resources. Whether it’s resolving to lose weight, drink less, exercise more, or aiming for other health-related goals that could make a big difference in your life, making resolutions stick is something that alludes the best of us.
The great news is that there is an alternative to this repeating cycle that gets you nowhere.
