Be SMART with New Years Resolutions!

12/17/2018

New Years is right around the corner and with that come New Years resolutions. Resolutions are basically another way to set goals, which is important but in order for them to work you have to be SMART!

Specific: Each resolution has to be specific. This year I am going to volunteer more. That’s not specific. I’m going to volunteer at the Clemmons Food Pantry, that’s specific. This year I’m going to workout. Again, not specific. This year I’m going to join CrossFit District 5 to workout, that’s specific.

Measurable: Keeping on the same train with resolutions. I’m going to volunteer at the Clemmons Food Pantry isn’t measurable so adding to it; I’m going to volunteer at the CFP once a month, that is measurable.

Attainable: If a resolution is impossible it isn’t checked off the list and you quit on all of them. I’m going to workout at CrossFit District 5 seven times a week. That’s not feasible when twice a week you work 5am-6pm. Make it possible to attain.

Realistic: This is basically knowing your limits. I haven’t worked in fifteen years and I’m 40 pounds heavier than my high school weight but I’m going to get a pull-up next week. That’s not realistic. It has to be in the realm of possible.

Time-based: Putting a time table to the goal gives you an needed urgency. I am going to learn calligraphy. Cool, when? This month, this year, this decade, this life? If you don’t put an expiration date you will almost never complete it.

Be SMART with your New Years Resolutions!
