New Years Resolutions 104 – Gather resources


So you’ve you made your New Years Resolution and identified the steps that you will need to take.  Good!  Now what do you need to make it happen?  As you progress toward fulfilling your New Years resolutions, there will be thing that you need along the way to help you complete each step of the process.

While we are more than capable of succeeding independently, we can all benefit from a little support once in a while.  One of the first tools that you should seek out is a strong support network.  This network can include anyone who you know will be supportive of your goal and with whom you are willing to share your goal, progress and hurdles.  These could be friends, family, people at the gym or at work that at work that you click with.  The main component is that they are supportive of you in your goal.  You want to surround yourself with the people who will notice and point out your progress.  People who will say things like “I’m proud of you for making it to the gym 3 times this week” instead the ones who say “you only made it to the gym 3 times this week”.  IN a way you are building your cheering section… Who wants cheer section with a negative attitude?  Many people seek out the help pf professionals for this.  As a Coach, I see how this has benefited my clients.

As you look at your lists (see NYR 103) you will notice that there are resources that you will need.  If your resolution is regarding your professional life for example, you may need additional trainings.  You may need certain things if you are starting a new workout regiment, or organization tools.  No matter what these need are, taking the time to address them will likely make your journey easier.  Any task is easier when you have the right tools.

Take some time to go through your lists and identify the resources that you will need to accomplish each item on the list.  Once you’ve identified the need, then it’s time to determine how you will get these resources.  These needs may be as simple as getting file folders or researching needed trainings online.  The important thing is that you know what you need a make a plan to get them.  As you set your plan, also start to set time lines; especially for the items for the items you are modifying and from your easy list that you are starting on right away.  Again, get the easy things first to get you started.  Set reasonable times to get the things that you need and stick with the schedule.  Again, if you things happen and you miss a scheduled item, make it up right away to avoid loosing momentum.

If you’ve been to a bookstore, library or just watched television recently you know that there are a number of books, CDs, DVDs and other similar items to help people do everything.  Many of these are very helpful, while others some not so much.  Whether or not these items will work help you on your quest will depend on whether or not you select the right one tool for you.  More information on selecting the right tools is available in NYR 105.  Get out there and start building your team.

What ever you New Years Resolution is… Receive my best wishes for success.
