Are you making a resolution in the new year? 🤔
⚠️Warning⚠️: More than half of all resolutions fail, but they don’t have to be yours.
Here’s how to identify your resolution and create a plan on how to reach it.

R ➡️ Relevant: You care about your goal and how it benefit you
T ➡️ Time-Bound: Create a timeline with specific dates

Now that you had planned the perfect New Year’s resolution, all that’s left is sticking to it.
Here are some methods to help you with it:
Anchoring ⚓️:
Attaching a new behaviour you want to do to the behaviour you already do regularly 🗓
By anchoring something you want to do (say, flossing 😬) to something you already do consistently (like brushing your teeth 🪥), you use an existing trigger, which makes it easier to smoothly pull the new behaviour into your routine.
Incremental changes 📈:
Start with a small version of the new behaviour and gradually build it up 🧗
By gradually building your way up, you can build better confidence and competence 💪. It also reduces the activation energy needed to start, so you could do it even on your worst days. 😔
Turning inwards 🫀:
Capitalizing on your deep internal motivation
Some days, you just feel over it. Tap into your intrinsic motivation. By selecting a behaviour you enjoy —and homing in on what you enjoy about it — getting it done won’t feel like a total slog 🙂.
