Resolutions
Why do so many resolutions - New Year’s or otherwise - fail? It’s because we focus on ‘what’, rather than ‘why’, ‘how’ and ‘who’. Lists of things to do (or not to do) are hard to sustain when the entrenched patterns of our daily life reassert themselves. Instead, try focusing on ‘why’ (your purpose for the year ahead), ‘how’ (the small steps on the pathway to that purpose) and ‘who’ (the people you can invite into your support network). Changing course is seldom a U-turn. Rather, let purpose, pathway and people be your compass for steering slowly and steadily in a new direction.
