New Year’s Resolutions! Tough to make but easy to break.

People break New Year’s Resolutions so often that, as I’m sure you know, there’s a common joke about how quickly people give up on them. According to a study from Best Life, 45% of participants couldn’t even keep their resolutions for the month of January.

What are some of the keys of creating goals that you can actually follow through on? Consider these qualities in your goal:

1. Make sure the goal is concrete

If your goal is vague, your actions and therefore results will be vague. Make sure you give quantitative boundaries to your goal to maximize success.

2. Accept that slip-ups will happen

We are human after all. Just because you miss your goal a few times doesn’t mean you should quit altogether!

3. Treat yo’ self!

Been hitting your goal for a while? That’s awesome! Positive reenforcement will help you maintain your goal moving forward.

4. Everything is easier with a friend
