Episode 54 - Why New Year's Resolutions Don't Work

Listen Later

So many of us make New Year's resolutions with good intentions, but we very rarely keep to them, which can be disheartening and counter productive. Instead of helping you forge ahead, they just make you feel worse about yourself!

In this episode, Shaa breaks down a better way of making New Years commitments - stacking the odds in your favour in order to actually achieve your goals in 2022...

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • By the first week of February, over 80% of people have forsaken their New Year's resolutions, and by the end of March, almost all have been forgotten entirely.
  • Instead of trying to take on too many things at once, why not set a single goal for each area of our lives, which makes things far more manageable.
  • We need to make a commitment to 1-3 things that we want above all other things. Stretch goals are the best goals - make them just beyond your reach, but not so far you have no hope of ever reaching them.
  • Accountability keeps us disciplined. Make sure you track your goals and surround yourself with people who will help you keep on track. Come check out https://www.shaa.com/the-6-figure-club-join-today/  to get Shaa’s help keeping you on track!

    MEET YOUR HOST

    Hi, I’m Shaa.

    I’ve been called a serial entrepreneur … but I’ve never been one for labels!

    I’ve done SO many things in my career, including starting and scaling multiple 7 figure businesses, and am grateful for being recognised with some lovely awards - most proudly, an MBE from The Queen “for Services to Business and Entrepreneurship”.

    I’ve been featured in major publications for my efforts (named one of the UK’s Top 20 Most Influential Entrepreneurs by The Sunday Times and one of the ‘Most Influential Women in the UK' by the Institute of Directors), and have written 4 straight-talking, bestselling books; Stop Talking, Start Doing; Stop Talking, Start Doing Action Book, Do Less, Get More; and most recently, How To Fix Your Shi*t.
