Ringing in a new year is exciting. You have renewed energy and have a positive outlook on what you plan to accomplish, and your sense of anticipation for what's ahead is further fueled by all of the uplifting messages from the important people in your life. Like, "Here's to a healthy and happy 2014!" and "May 2014 be your most successful yet!"
How do you maintain this elevated sense of excitement and desire to succeed? You don't want to be like the vast majority who sets clear visions, but then loses steam within 1-2 weeks. Commit now to setting your 2014 goals (if you have not done so already), and then throughout the year, constantly work on them and set weekly/monthly reminders to ensure that you're on track with successfully fulfilling your resolutions. Determining goals can sometimes feel daunting, but keep most simple. We can help you get your list of goals started, or we can help you by adding some additional helpful strategies.
One of the great ways for you to overcome procrastination is by working as though you had only one day to get all your most important jobs done before you left for a month or went on a vacation. By putting the pressure on yourself, you accomplish more and better tasks, faster than ever before. You become a high-performance, high-achieving personality. You feel terrific about yourself, and bit by bit, you build up the habit of rapid task completion that then goes on to serve you all the days of your life.
