Was that suspenseful? OK, I'm no Alfred Hitchcock.
Resolution To Reality (R2R) is a test program I've put together, which launches on Monday, January 3, 2011.
Here's the thing. Everyone makes New Year's Resolutions. I have no idea exactly the percentage of people who actually succeed with their resolutions, but I'm sure it's less than 5%. Possibly even less. Why do we keep doing it? It's tradition. But as the days go by, the excitement of the new year fades, and so does the motivation. I mean, really, how can you stick to a diet and exercise program when Superbowl Sunday comes along? Plus, lots of people don't know how to set reasonable goals.
The whole thing is kinda doomed to failure before it starts.
But I've never been one to accept the status quo.
So I'm thinking, where is it written that a New Year's Resolution HAS to fail? How many people set goals at other times of the year and also fail? Maybe it's not the new year that's responsible.
If a person allowed for days off or found creative ways to take action toward a goal, couldn't that person still be successful? Of course! If a person had daily support and had to be accountable for progress, wouldn't that person be more likely to be successful? Yes!
It's time to buck tradition and crash the stereotype. Whatever your resolution is, let's make it your reality.
