As we ring in the new year, many are setting resolutions. Some of the most common new year’s resolutions are to lose weight, get in shape, eat healthier, save/make more money or my favorites, get organized and give back. 
Most statistics state that by February, you will have broken more than 90%t of the resolutions you made. While it may not be easy or overnight, here are some helpful steps to make it easier for you to reach your goal and stick with it:
Be Specific – Describe what you want to accomplish in detail and write it down. Many studies have proven that the simple act of writing your goals down greatly improves your chances of accomplishing them. Also, let your friends and family know your goals. They can help support you during rough times. Be Realistic – Set goals you are capable of achieving. Instead of setting ten new year’s resolutions, you may want to limit it to two t o three that are attainable.Be Disciplined – Understand that it may take energy, sacrifice and plain old hard work to obtain your goal. Breaking up a larger goal into smaller tasks can help keep you motivated and on track.
Be On Time – Establish a timeline and set completion dates for your goals and tasks. This should also be written down and will help you to stay focused.
Be Rewarded - Give yourself a small reward after accomplishing a goal. Celebrating your success will keep you motivated and will help you keep those new year resolutions.Happy, healthy 2010!
