New Year's Resolutions? Bah Humbug!

Author : Lauren Hobson
When it comes to New Year's Resolutions, I'm kind of a scrooge. I'm not a big fan of resolving each year to solve all of my bothersome issues or problems, whether they are personal or work-related. In many cases, we set ourselves up for failure by making blanket statements about how this year we will change, and how things will be different.Instead, it might be better to start the New Year by planning achievable, baby-step goals (not resolutions, of course), especially when it comes to business planning for the New Year. For instance, take your three most pressing business issues or goals that need attention first. Then, for each issue, break the tasks into manageable chunks and concentrate on these one at a time.Step by step, you will find yourself achieving your goals and being successful a little bit at a time. If you look at your projects as a whole, it can be overwhelming or even paralyzing. If you break them down into manageable baby steps, you increase your chances of actually completing these projects using manageable, baby-step goals!Using the power of incremental progress can help you improve your performance, reach your goals, and even have an impact on your overall business results. The more successful you become at mastering baby-step goals, the more productive you will become in all areas of your business.So if you're not a fan of New Year's resolutions, try using the baby-step goal approach and watch your progress take off in the New Year.Lauren Hobson is the Editor of Biz Talk Newsletter, a free monthly publication designed to provide small businesses and non-profits with tips and techniques to help them make the most of their web sites and marketing efforts without spending a lot of money.
