With the New Year fast approaching I’m hearing a lot of, “in the New Year I’ll…” especially when people are thinking about their New Year Resolution

Here are some examples and you might be able to relate to:
“In the New Year, I’ll quit smoking”
“In the New Year, I’ll quit drinking”
“In the New Year, I’ll quit gambling”
“In the New Year I will be turning a new leaf, no more hand to mouth”
“In the New Year, I’ll save more money”
“In the New Year, I’ll spend less money”
The list goes on and on…

You have to be very careful about this, because this is the perfect… “Some day, I’ll…”
If you don’t have the will power to make that “some day” TODAY, i.e. make the desired outcome so urgent that you’ll want to do it immediately, you’ll most likely not have the will power to make it happen when “some day” comes. So remember that you don’t need to wait for the New Year to start any change. Start today, no matter how big or small it is!

Happy New Year! and have a Great New Year Resolution
