Making a New Year’s resolution is like setting any other type of goal. You have to choose wisely if you want to achieve something significant.
Remember that a good resolution, like a solid goal, usually has a few definable characteristics:
Focus. Set a definite target: “Lose 10 pounds by June 1” is better than “Lose some weight.”
Challenge. Your resolution should be neither too hard nor too easy.
Support. Share your resolutions with others who will help you work on them.
Presence. Write down your resolutions in detail, and post your list where you’ll see it often.
Vision. Visualize the results you want to achieve every day.
