New Year Resolution

By Naga Nandini

All of us have been there – making New Year resolutions that will totally get us back on track in life.

• Overcome addiction

• Procrastination

• Lose weight and

• Improve finance

Everything in the list never gets done. A shocking 96% people fail abandon their New Year Resolution within two weeks. Nearly 56% of them don’t even start working towards their goals.

Why Does This Happen?

How do the 4% achieve what they want?

A Harvard university study says. Only 1% of the people stick to their resolution religiously even after six months. These people make the top 1% of the population who control others. They are the heroes, billionaires, celebrities we adore.

How Do You Move To That 1% From The Common 99%?

1. Be specific on what you want.

2. Aim one at a time.

3. Be creative and have fun.

Think of the new resolution as a fun game to be played instead of a mundane routine. You are the hero of the game. You will overcome all obstacles. If your goal is to earn more money plan your goal with minute details.

Set a realistic limit for yourself like I will make Rs. 5000 extra within the next months.

List activities you must do to achieve it like indulging in a part time job, taking an extra course, applying for new jobs that pay higher.

Ensure you do at least three things related to achieving your goal every day before going to bed. You can offer to take care of errands for your friend for week to get an extra pay in the form or favor or finance. You can try an online internship that helps you get more money and learn the skill that will help you in the future.

Keep Track

Break down the goals and achieve them. Every top corporate country in this world has measurable goals. They have weekly targets, monthly targets and quarterly targets. Divide your goal into weekly, monthly or fortnight based goals.

If you need Rs. 5000 extra in the next three months, you must start earning at least Rs. 2000 extra for the next two months. That means, you have to earn extra Rs. 500 every week. Take steps to do and do not give yourself any excuse.

One at a Time

Set one particular aim at a time and proceed with another one once you have achieved the aim. It will give an immense boost to your confidence. The greatest benefit of this ride is the joy of exploring your limits. You do not do it for anyone but yourself. Unleash your creativity and have fun in the process. Think out of the box and make every day interesting trying to achieve your goal.

A famous social media influencer who tried this sold coolers in the platform, baked pizzas and even helped to take of pets for their neighbors to make the extra income.

The result in lots of new fun experiences, new contacts and some lovely friendships and contacts which will help you later to achieve your goal.

All the best for your New Year Resolution 2023.
