The Thinker's Apprentice

71- New Year's Resolutions


Listen Later

In this episode we talk about the goals we all tend to set for the new year, goals we often fail to achieve. We talk about what it takes to actually accomplish those goals. Topics include:

  • I talk about New Year's resolutions in general terms and why they always fail.
  • I talk about procrastination and how putting things off until tomorrow only leads to putting them off for an infinite amount of tomorrows. 
  • I talk about planning and how it is the foundation of achieving any goal. 
  • I also talk about knowing if a goal is truly important to you or not.
  • Then we talk about understanding your WHY and understanding what barriers are standing in the way. I use a diet as an easy example to illustrate some common roadblocks.
  • And for us to really go deep we do a journal entry and explore these 2 things.
  • Then I introduce SMART goals, which most people are familiar with. 
  • Then I go over some extraneous details.
  • Finally we talk about how to deal with setbacks and mistakes, which are guaranteed to happen. 
  • And in our Call-to-Action we put all this to work this year while we make our resolutions so that this year can be different than all the other years.
