Making resolutions for the new year is a tradition that usually ends with you beating yourself up by the end of January. Why go through this emotional roller coaster of declaring an ending? It's not that you don't have good intentions. You even make a toast to your decision. After thinking about so many things to improve, you settle on the one thing that stands out among the rest and declare it. So why doesn't this work?

Since a resolution is a statement of promise, it has been fulfilled once the statement is made. Taking it a step further by adding an action plan, and committing to it, is where the success comes in. This is the most important part that many individuals neglect. Think about it...throughout the year you plan your strategy to meet your business goals. Getting more gigs, growing your blog, increasing traffic, building positive relationships, and making more money all are backed by plans of action. Going into the new year with the same approach is the pathway to your success. 

Anticipate positive results of your goal. Think, talk, and live what you are reaching for. Success breeds success, so be sure to surround yourself with it. Toast in the new year with a promise of action!
