I BET I KNOW WHAT YOUR TOP 2 NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS ARE
"Resolution". It's another word for Intentionality, an emotional intelligence component.
Some facts about New Year's Resolutions:
- For most people, the #1 resolution is losing weight, getting fit, getting back in shape, exercising more, eating right ... some form of wellness.
- Next is something you want to "give up", some bad habit. Quit smoking. Quit self-sabotaging. Stop yelling at my kids. Stop fighting with my partner.
- 90% of people will have broken their resolution by the end of January.
- Most people admit to having the same top 3 every year.
- We want to make it a better year for ourselves, but we are making the list at the down time of year.
Coaching can help you make a keep your New Year's resolutions.
The month coming up is a hard one for most people, cultiminating in "the most depressing day of the year," January 20th (so proclaimed by a scientist using a formula). This is because of the weather, SAD (seasonal affective disorder, all the emotions triggered around Christmas , the after-Christmas letdown, the weather, bills, not getting what you wanted for Christmas, the weather (gray skies!), fights over Christmas time with relatives ... and so forth.
Want to see the same thing on your list next year, like it was last year, and the year before? Of course you dont, so why not try coaching.
Why do we make these "resolutions" at what is usually the low-point of the year? Well, any time is good to make a resolution to make your life work better, as long as you give yourself a real chance at making the goal. Coaching can help. I help people make their resolutions all year long.
Make it your resolution to find out about your resolutions, and give yourself a chance at keeping them this year.
