There are two common mistakes that people tend to make before they even start to make their New Year resolutions:

#1. They think about what they "should" do, rather than what they really want to do.

#2. They think about what they should stop doing, rather than what they actually want to achieve. 

To be successful at any change, you need to really want it.

Unless you take time to consider what it is you really want (rather than what you should do or should stop doing) you will invariably end up making a resolution to which you are not entirely committed.

Without commitment, you aren't motivated and after the first setbacks or obstacles you will quit.

So the first rule of New Year Resolutions is only to make ones that you are committed to – don't make a resolution simply because it is "the thing to do", or because someone has told you that you should.

New Year's resolutions have the potential to be very powerful because making them is such a well recognized practice.

Everyone knows that everyone else is setting resolutions. And what a great mutual support network that can provide! This external motivation and support, along with your internal motivation – the desire to succeed – is what can make the difference between success and failure.

Successful resolutions start with a strong commitment to make a change.

To succeed, you must believe that you can accomplish what you set out to achieve, and that belief is bolstered by the unwavering support you give yourself.

"Everything we do is a process, never a result."

That is a quote from Jon Taffer of Bar Rescue one of my favorite TV shows.

People think about a certain RESULT they want for the New Year but a result isn't a good RESOLUTION.

In 2023 you may want to consider a new PROCESS in your daily routine.

The way to seeing that New Year's Result come true is by adding a new Process.  

How incredible is it that TODAY happens to be 135 DAYS to Fitness Atlantic!
