How to Give Yourself a Fresh Start

Hello ,

A new year is upon us and many of us are filled with a sense of hope that this year will be different than the last. Most of us start the new year with resolutions but these often fizzle out by February.

Often, we keep repeating the same mistakes or we don't take consistent action, and not much changes.

In order for this year to be different, it's important to reflect on what has been keeping you from being successful so that you can start getting different results.

What do you need to do differently in 2021?

What are the biggest obstacles standing in your way?

What steps do you need to take to get yourself from here to where you want to be?

Are you unmotivated? Why?

Are you setting unrealistic goals?

Are your goals not exciting enough? Or, do you lack confidence to achieve the goals you set?

Do you scatter your efforts and lose focus quickly?

Are you wanting it to be quick and easy and when it’s not quit?

Or, are you trying to change too many things at once, get overwhelmed, only to quit in frustration after a few weeks?

Do you expect yourself to do everything perfectly, get frustrated when you don't, and then quit?

Goal setting isn’t a one time thing as in “I want to lose 50 lbs.,” but something that needs continual adjusting along the way. It’s all about baby steps. Take that 50 lb. goal and break it down into 5 or 10 pound increments. Set a goal to lose 2 to 4 pounds a month.

All success can be broken down into manageable steps. And unless you quit trying, failure isn’t final; it’s simply feedback on the journey that tells you where you need to make adjustments.

What's your relationship with failure and making mistakes?

People who can’t handle making mistakes or failing often don’t get to reap the rewards of success. They’re too afraid to take risks and try new things that allow them to grow and change. The best thing you can do is to allow yourself to fail forward towards the success you seek.

If just reading this makes you uncomfortable, you’re probably in need of reframing your relationship with risk, failure, and making mistakes.

What risks do you need to take in order to move forward this year?

Remember the turtle? The only way it can move forward is to stick its neck out.

It also beat the hare by being slow and steady.

Taking risks is the difference between a juicy life and a dull life spent going through the motions.

You don’t have to take big risks.

Start small; grow your courage; be patient; and soon you will blossom.

Wishing you much success in 2021!

Catherine
