20 pounds or maybe gain new clients. This helps me visualize what it will take to meet my goals. I also add physical reminders like a Post-it note on my computer. One year, I wanted to be more positive, so I had a little note with an inspirational quote and a reminder to keep looking on the bright side. The road to achieving your resolution may include a few disappointments. Sometimes, I struggle a little when I don’t achieve what I want to, and that feeling
can outweigh the pride I feel for the goals I did reach. I can’t help but think about when my team won the state championship in my senior year of high school. We wanted it the whole year, and it was an incredible feeling, but the thought of the loss the year before was so strong, a significant motivator that drove us to work harder to win. In the end, what matters most is striving to improve ourselves. Interestingly, I didn’t set New Year’s Resolutions until I started my business. Like many people, my focus initially was to lose weight every year. Over the last few years, my resolutions have become more business-oriented and internal, like developing a more positive mindset. Every year, I try to be at least 1% better than I was the year before because incremental change is a victory. As we enter 2025, I encourage you to keep your resolutions simple, focused, and achievable. By accomplishing small goals, we grow in big ways. Remember, being just 1% better every day, or even for the whole year, is a win for self-improvement. I wish you all a happy New Year. When the clock strikes 12, you can say a little “Happy Birthday” to my daughter, too.
