If you're already slipping on your New Year's resolutions, here's some good news: You have plenty of time to get back on track, and stick to your goals all year long.
"The main factor that we found [in our research] that predicts success in your resolutions is intrinsic motivation," she says.," Fishback urges people to focus on four key areas when creating their goals:Do my goals fit the person I am, and are they ideal goals for the person I hope to become?
Once you have a goal that excites you, find a way to attach a reward or immediate gratification to it. For example, if your goal is to exercise more, try introducing music, podcasts or audiobooks into your exercise routine — so that you"get" to enjoy listening to something you like while working out.In Fishbach's book, she writes that while the"beginnings and ends are clearly marked, middles can be long and ill-defined in the goal process.
Her advice is to"attack the middle" by setting sub-goals to minimize your tendencies to cut corners. Those sub-goals could be monthly, weekly or even daily. A monthly savings goal, for example, probably feels a lot more attainable than an annual savings goal. Rinse and repeat each month until you've reached a full year.When you're practicing self-control, Fishbach says, you need to"know your enemy.
