Hey everyone, I am sure you guys are tired of hearing about resolutions but it’s that time of year where everyone starts talking about their resolutions and what they are looking to accomplish for the upcoming year. Every year I would makes these elaborate goals and very strict resolutions and then I would feel defeated 2 weeks in because I would get this burst of motivation in the beginning and then run out of steam as the weeks progress. It’s the same thing like when you see everyone in the gym in January and then by February only a few remain.
What I did differently this year was that I realized that it wasn’t so much the goals itself, but I needed to focus on the systems. The systems that I need to put in place that will put me in a position for success. Once I focused on that, it has made it easier to accomplish goals that I have set up for myself. I’ve been listening to this audiobook on Audible by Kevin Hart called The Decision and it’s so good!!! First of all he’s extremely entertaining to listen to and the information he shares is very easy and digestible. I’ve been listening to it for the past couple of days and I can’t even begin to tell you how much I have enjoyed it! It talks about decision making and the things that affect it and how you can overcome them!
Listening to it made me realize all the excuses I make to myself on a daily basis. Some of it is subconscious and others are bad habits and limitations that I am putting up. Once I realized that, I began to be more intentional with my decision making and not just have resolutions but actual changes that I can make every day. Even if it’s just one step towards the positive change and I just focus on that, then I’m going in the right direction. I am going to be writing some more posts elaborating on the changes that I am making that helps me so maybe in turn we can hold each other accountable. I know 2020 was a difficult year for most in one way or the other and many people are still dealing with those ramifications. I pray that everyone has a positive, healthy and fulfilling year and may we all make the changes that get us closer to living a life that we envision for ourselves!
Lots of Love,
Sahar
