WHAT'S YOUR "NEW DAY RESOLUTION?"
Ok, its that time of year when the Gyms, Health clubs, and running paths fill up with committed people determined that THIS year, they will do WHATEVER IT TAKES to "get in shape". Those venues will empty out in a month or so, when life begins to get in the way of those commitments. Does this mean those people are weak-willed, or less intent upon being healthy? Nope. It means that they have lives to lead, and sometimes (usually) life gets in the way of our best plans and intentions. So how do we handle this? I worked out everyday for 2-1/2 weeks, then I got a cold, or had to go to an all day meeting, or had a series of kid events and I didn't get to it. Well, that's it. My New Year's resolution is blown. Might as well grab the Doritos. What the hell was I thinking anyway? Sound familiar? We're all human, with human abilities, failings, commitments, etc. I makes no sense to, based upon an artificially contrived holiday tradition, try to plan every day for the next year. It's a set-up to failure.
There are probably many solutions to the problem. I'm offering one here. Make a resolution EVERY DAY, as to what you will do THAT DAY ONLY to accomplish the goals that you set for yourself. You can't plan a year in advance for daily activities, but you can reasonably anticipate the things coming up on a given day. If your goal is fitness, health, etc., plan what you are going to do THAT DAY to move you forward toward those goals. Are you going to fast that day, eat only low carbs that day, get in a solid workout that day? Then at the end of the day, look at what you actually did. The next day, do the same thing. What you can do will vary on given days. Make EACH DAY a new commitment, or RESOLUTION, if you will. Some days you will screw up, make bad choices, not have time to do what you planned, etc. Get back on it the next day. One day off the wagon won't, in most cases, have any lasting effects, nor will one day of doing everything right have lasting benefits. If you plan to do this every day, however, the trend will show the benefits over the course of a year.
One day, one plan, one commitment.
