New Year’s Resolutions, we all make them, but do we all succeed?  It’s 2013, but are you starting your year with your failed resolutions from 2012?  Whatever your resolutions may be, financial success or freedom, weight loss, self discipline or starting a company you’ve been dragging your feet on, this can be your year to achieve your goals!  It’s a new year and it can be a new you! 

Our advice for achieving your resolution is taking baby steps to get there.  If you plan to have financial success or freedom, read up on financial websites or visit the library and check out a few financial books to help you get a game plan together of how you are going to increase your overall financial well being.  From there, start taking your lunch to work a few times a week or carpool, take small steps to start cutting expenses.  If you plan to lose weight without starving yourself, make small adjustments every day with what you eat and how long you plan to exercise each day or every other day. 

Having a plan of how you are going to do it, will help.  Once you write down your plan, make a few copies of it and keep it on your desk, in your wallet, in your car or in the bathroom.  If you have it with you at all times it will be a constant reminder of what you are working towards.  With any goal you choose, realize that it’s going to take time to get there; overnight success will only lead to failure.  Time and work are the hardest parts of achieving any resolution, but if you stay focused on the prize it will help keep you on track for what you want most in your life for 2013.  Remember, it’s a New Year and it CAN be a New You!
