It's that time again. We resolve to make changes to our lives to improve our health, wealth and happiness because a new year has started and that's what everyone else is doing. Sadly, many will make resolutions they will end up breaking by the end of the month or a few weeks later but it doesn't have to be that way.

What is the reason that some people make resolutions and transform their lives while most cannot? It has to do with the reason why the successful people make resolutions. They do so because they have strong why and a clear outcome in mind. They resolve to achieve specific outcomes by the end of each year and are highly motivated to take actions that help them achieve those outcomes. This strong why transforms a typical New Year's resolution into a must have outcome. This makes all the difference in the world and can help you to keep your resolutions.

What is your WHY for the health, educational or personal changes you want to make this year?
Make them something you are strongly connected with and not just nice-to-have outcomes. Don't copy what someone else is doing. Make your own personal transformation pledges and see yourself achieving by December this year. Figure out what you need to do each week and each day that helps you get to that clear goal you have just committed to.

Happy New Year everyone!
