People tend to enter every New Year with excitement and motivation.
Unfortunately, by February, over 80% of people have already quit their resolutions.
Studies show that only 8% of people that create New Years Resolutions actually achieve them.

To become the top 10%, you'll need to PLAN like the top 10%.
Only those that create actionable steps towards success will actually achieve it.
Here is how I create New Years Resolutions and hold myself accountable through the year:

Here is how I create New Years Resolutions and hold myself accountable through the year:
1.) Start with your Yearly Goals
Spend time thinking about the type of person you want to become this year.
Do you want to be smarter? Stronger? Richer?
Write down your goals, then write a MEASURABLE figure that you want to hit.
Spend time thinking about the type of person you want to become this year.
Do you want to be smarter? Stronger? Richer?
Write down your goals, then write a MEASURABLE figure that you want to hit.
1a.) The most important step is to make your goals measurable. Without this you can't properly tell HOW MUCH you have grown.
Want to be stronger? Finally hit that three plate bench.
Want to be smarter? Read 50 books this year.
Want to be richer? Earn six-figures.

Want to be richer? Earn six-figures.
2.) Next you need to break your yearly goals down into monthly increments so you can measure your progress.
With my monthly goals I create calendars that allow me to track the habits that will help me achieve my goals, along with habits I want to set just because.

2a.) The habit tracker is an important part of this process as it feeds you dopamine while you build a streak.
It takes around three weeks to develop a habit and about TWO MONTHS for the habit to become automatic.

Building your streak allows you to develop your habit.
Developing your habit allows you to forge your life.

3.) I do this assessment chart at the end of every month (or sooner if I need to).
With this I can analyze my success and failures.
Based on this I can predict what problems I may run into the next month.
This means I can have solutions lined up BEFORE IT EVEN HAPPENS.

This means I can have solutions lined up BEFORE IT EVEN HAPPENS.
3a.) This is CRUCIAL to prevent burnout.
What failures did you have with your skills, physical or mental health, or your lifestyle?
Based on these failures, what problems might you run into next month?
What is your solution to these problems?

What is your solution to these problems?
3b.) This is what allows you to continue building your streak until your habits become automatic.
Were you wanting to start a martial art but you find yourself getting too tired during practice?
Well that may make you quit UNLESS you solve the problem by adding an extra 30 minutes of cardio to your exercise routine.

Do you have a goal to make six figures but you find yourself feeling burnt out and missing out on time with friends?
Solve this problem by spending a couple hours on the weekend with friends.

The key to success is to figure out what your problems might be based on the failures that you were running into, then schedule solutions for those problems.
Remember, nobody became successful on accident.
The success we have is made by the habits we make.
