I thought I’d give New Years Resolutions a few days
to take hold (or not). If/when you find you are having trouble sticking to 2013
Resolutions consider the wording of your goal. If you have included the word
“try”, leave it out. MRI imaging reveals that the brain does not recognize the
word “try”. Instead use wording that includes “I am”, “I have”, “I do”… Action words--those are what light up the
brain and Action is what you want to happen. So, when you find your Resolution
wavering revisit the wording.
PS (You may have noticed, “I tried” to post in
November/December and “I am” posting in January) ;)
Happy New Year!
