In this episode I’m sharing Why Create A Guiding Word instead of a NYE Resolution.Have you ever created a NYE resolution whereby you successfully achieved a successful outcome? No? Me either!It’s taken me a bit to figure out the reason why resolutions don’t work.Resolutions are flawed for several reasons including:• they are only mental thought that have connected to a negative default position — something you no longer want;• they are based on something you desire in the future, rather than right now in the present;• are often vague and have no delivery boundary in the future• often based on a comparison you’ve made with something that someone else has or does;• they lack room to amend or reconfigure the deliverable outcome, it’s all or failure;• their start date and time are very specific, with no flexibility for planning and implementation;• there is no flexibility nor invitation to explore the feelings, beliefs or habits that maintain what it is you are trying to change.The resolution based on a thought, does not set you up with a proactive plan for a positive achievement outcome. Additionally, the resolution doesn’t attend to anything in your emotional department.There’s the power of creating an intention over a resolution. An intention is a process by which you connect to a positive and desired feeling, something you want. The resolution statement is often a default from avoiding a feeling, sensation or habit you don’t want in your life.There is something really special about carving out space to reflect and release the expiring year with all its experiences. Reflect on the lessons learned this year, before opening up yourself up to more dreaming and deeper desires. Here’s the best bit about an intention – it’s not dependent upon one date in your calendar. You can do this any time.You can utilise an intention that allows you to create the plan and the energy for your desired change.Want more of me? Here's my social links!
