Goal Setting and Goal Getting:
From New Year Resolutions to New Year RESULTS
Which do you want?
Well it is that time of year again. It is time for another round of New Year Resolutions. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
Most of us break our resolutions in the first week of the year and forget about them by the end of January.
But if this year you are interested in turning your resolutions into results, then read on. Here are the 7 steps to turn your New Year Resolutions into New Year Results.
7 Steps to New Year Results
- Choose a result that you must have
Do not choose something that you would like to have or that it would be nice to have. Choose result that you must have, not matter what.
2. State your result in the positive
Don’t say you are going to quit eating fast food. Do say that you are going to do the necessary things to eat well and live a healthy life style.
3. Write it down
No, don’t tell me you will remember it and keep it in your mind. Write it down. It is important to put the result you want in writing:
There is power in the written word and the weakest ink is still better than the strongest memory.
4. Tell someone the result for which you are aiming
As a matter of fact, tell many people. Telling others your intended results can help to keep you accountable to both yourself and someone else. One reason I tell my clients and students my goals for my New Year Results is that once I put it out there I would be embarrassed not to achieve what I said I was going to achieve.

5. Put a DENT in the results you want.
D o E very N ecessary T hing
DENT stands for Do Every Necessary Thing to get the results you desire. Don’t just do some of them. Don’t just do even most of them. Do every necessary thing, do all the necessary things to achieve the result you desire. When you do certain things, you will get the result you want. Doing is usually not the tough part. Get started is the tough part.
6. Track your results
That which you measure has a much better chance of improving. That which you measure and report on has an even greater chance of improving. When you track your results, you can also notice what is working and what is not. Now this next tip sounds so simple yet few people use it: stop doing what is not working and do more of what is working.
That which you measure has a much better chance of improving.
7. Last and definitely not least is to celebrate your results
Don’t just wait until you get the big result you want to celebrate. Celebrate small the small victories along the way and celebrate large when you achieve your desired result(s).
When you do these seven things, you will turn your resolutions into results you can celebrate and enjoy achieving your goals.
