Happy New Year 2011

First of all , i would like to wish everyone out there a happy 2011. Working out on new year resolutions with a s.m.ar.t formula would make one not to feel dejected when it comes to year end when you look back.

List down the new year resolutions that you have made this year. Look at it and define them into the categories of whether they are achievable within the daily lifestyle or it is a resolution which can be achieved within a specific time frame. For most of the ladies , the new year resolution is to lose weight.

Doing your goal setting for your new year resolution requires clarity, challenge, commitment , feedback , task complexity.

Clarity - Are you really clear that the resolution you set forth for this year is really what you wanted to achieve? Clear goals are measurable and unambigous . When a goal is specific and clear, set a time of completion. You will know what is expected and you can use the end result to visualize as a source of motivation. When your goal is vague or expressed as a general instruction, it will be having a limited kind of motivational value to you.

Next week , i will be writing up on the challenge of achieving the goal so stay in tune....
