As a Boxer dog I see the suffering my "family" go through in their efforts to keep to their New Year's resolutions. As I have indicated it's all about changes to habit and choice.
According to those who spend their time on compiling the stats before 30 days most have either given up or not started their resolution. Mark Twain is quoted as saying Yesterday, everybody smoked his last cigar, took his last drink and swore his last oath. Today, we are a pious and exemplary community. Thirty days from now, we shall have cast our reformation to the winds and gone to cutting our ancient shortcomings considerably shorter than ever. What do you think was he spot on?
Below are 10 reasons why people fail to achieve success in their resolution:
Not writing resolutions down on paper
Procrastination
Going it alone
Not enough knowledge to map a plan
Lack of focus
Discouragement
Those inevitable obstacles
Too vague
Laziness
Emphasis on negatives, not positives
In my observations, as a Boxer dog, the above is not only for New Year's resolutions but for everything in a humans life. I will leave you with this as a moment to ponder that take those 10 reasons and if you do the opposite then you must succeed. Now that must be easy? After all we Boxer dogs are an easy going bunch who love nothing better than to play and be Boxers.
