When someone makes a promise to you and doesn't keep it it hurts. It's one thing if they said they would try but a promise is a promise. It hurt us as kids and it hurts us as adults. In business and unkept promise is fraud.
Nothing hurts
more though, then making a promise to yourself and not keeping it. That
hurt is stored in the mind and the body and can manifest as anxiety
depression or physical pain.
A
New Year's resolution is like a promise to yourself.. Many are hurt
because in the past they've taken it lightly. Do not make a promise to
yourself that you don't keep. At the very least say "I will try to... "
instead of "I will"
In
the last 5 years I have surprisingly kept my resolutions and I will tell
you my trick. There's a saying "You do not rise to The level of your
goals you fall to the level of your systems."
Imagine
you want to build a really tall tower of blocks. Your goal is to make
it super high, but sometimes the blocks might fall over.
The
quote is like saying, instead of just focusing on making the tower
really high, also think about having some extra blocks ready. That way,
if some blocks fall, you're not stuck with a short tower – you can use
the backup blocks to keep building and reach your goal eventually.
It's like having a backup plan for when things don't go perfectly the first time!
I'm saying have a system in place that keeps you on track and has a built-in backup plan for when you fall short.

I
asked Chat GPT: "I find it hard to get motivated to exercise can you
give me a system I can put in place to exercise more and give me a
backup plan?"
HERE IS THE ANSWER IT GAVE ME:
" Sure thing! Let's break it down:
1.
**Set a Daily Time**: Pick a specific time each day for your 10-minute
workout. It could be in the morning, during lunch, or before dinner.
2. **Choose Simple Exercises**: Keep it easy at first with exercises like jumping jacks, squats, or a quick jog in place.
3. **Create a Checklist**: Make a checklist for each day you complete your workout. It's satisfying to tick off those boxes!
4.
**Have a Backup Plan**: Identify three short, enjoyable exercises you
can do in case you miss your scheduled workout. Examples: dance for 5
minutes, do 50 jumping jacks, or a quick yoga flow.
5.
**Reward Yourself**: Celebrate your victories! Treat yourself when you
hit milestones, like completing a week of consistent workouts.
Remember,
start small, stay consistent, and be kind to yourself. If you miss a
day, jump back in the next day with your backup plan. You've got this!"
