Think back on the past three years of ‘New Year’s Resolutions’ that you’ve made. How many were you able to keep up with? At this point it’s no secret that most of us have trouble making resolutions and being consistent with them throughout the year. Even though that may be the majority, we can offer two insightful jumping-off points that may help you shift from abandoning your goals for the New Year to absolutely smashing them!
Develop a Great Morning Routine
All successful entrepreneurs have morning routines that help them achieve their goals. There’s just something special about waking up before the world does to make progress on whatever your goals are, without distraction and interruption. If early mornings aren’t already part of your routine then it will probably be difficult at first. But the key to making the most of an early morning is consistency. The time you choose to wake up is only the start, though. The rest of your routine is all dependent on what you need to get done on that particular day!
Take Breaks
You wouldn’t be wrong in thinking that this applies to small breaks during the day in between tasks. It also applies to bigger breaks throughout the year. Taking a few minutes to stretch, get some fresh air and clear your mind during the work day do provide great benefits. Similarly, in between bigger projects throughout the year you can still get burned out. Which makes the bigger breaks just as necessary. It doesn’t always have to be an expensive dream travel vacation. A change of environment can work wonders for restoring your energy and refreshing your mindset so you can get back to the grind better than before.
