Some tips to write New Year’s resolutions

No 1: Prepare for change mentally. 從心理上做好改變的準(zhǔn)備。

Look back to the previous year（回顧過去的一年）,問自己幾個問題：

what you accomplished（實現(xiàn)了哪些）

what you want to change（想改變什么）

what you are proud of（自豪于什么）

No 2: Set goals that motivate you. 列出能夠激勵自己的目標(biāo)。

The goals need to be important to you and align around（與……結(jié)合） your top priorities（最重要的事）.

Create a plan.

To make a plan of what you need to do per week or per month.大目標(biāo)切成小目標(biāo)。

This will help you stay motivated on the path towards（通往……的道路） your goal.

No 3: Limit your resolutions. 限制新年決心。

很多人都會犯的錯誤是：to have too many resolutions and spreading yourself too thin.把自己切分得太薄了（讓自己干的事情太多了）

Don’t spread yourself too thin.

It is important to prioritize.確定 (任務(wù)) 優(yōu)先順序。

No 4: Be specific. 具體一點。

Instead of writing “ be more healthy”, be more specific by writing “drink more water”, “quit smoking”, “eat more vegetables” etc.

Make sure it is realistic. 目標(biāo)一定要現(xiàn)實。

Give yourself a time frame in which to achieve the goal, like a deadline. 列一個時間表，有截止日期之類的。

No 5: Start small. 從簡單的開始。

Divide big goals into smaller goals, it will make it more achievable. 由大化小，讓目標(biāo)可實現(xiàn)。

Break up a yearly goal into months. It will be easier to keep track as well.全年目標(biāo)拆分為每月目標(biāo)，這樣也比較容易在正軌上。

No 6: Write down your goals and review them. 寫下來，時?；仡?。

This will remind you of your goals and keep you motivated throughout the year.

這樣會提醒自己，目標(biāo)是什么，也會全年充滿動力去實現(xiàn)目標(biāo)。

No 7: If you fall off track, don’t give up and get back to it. 如果偏軌，不要放棄，再回來。

Change is difficult. Setbacks can happen and it’s OK. 幾經(jīng)周折很正常，事物的發(fā)展總是曲折變化的。

*setback 挫折，周折

學(xué)會以上7個tips，相信你更可能制定出可實現(xiàn)的目標(biāo)（create better goals that you can achieve）。
