The document discusses how to make New Year's resolutions stick. It provides three key tactics:
1. Set a specific and inspiring goal. Connect emotionally to "why" you want to achieve the goal by visualizing yourself achieving it and how it will improve your life.
2. Set daily deliberate actions. Make small, consistent choices each day that move toward your goal rather than expecting to achieve it in one grand gesture. Successful people achieve goals through compounding many small, correct choices over time.
3. Apply the principle of integrity. Do what you say you will do by the time you say you will do it. Committing to your words, not thoughts/feelings, programs your subconscious mind

How to Be Happy: 25 Habits to Add to Your Routine
Yes, it’s possible
Happiness looks different for everyone. For you, maybe it’s being at peace with who you are. Or having a secure network of friends who accept you unconditionally. Or the freedom to pursue your deepest dreams.
Most of us can agree that positive thinking is important. It tends to make us feel
better, be more productive, and reduces stress.
The problem is, our lives aren't always rosy. Crises happen - be it on a personal level or something more widespread.
That reality is a part of everyone's life, and it makes keeping your spirits up tough.

Spiritual Lessons On Losing Weight Without Torturing Yourself!Uzzal Hossain
Are you struggling with the fact that you really don't know anything about accomplishing zen with your health?
There's no magic bullet that will make you slim down without trying. No particular diet that lets you eat a big amount of food and drop pounds quickly. No ab-machine or exercise bike that you see at three fifteen in the morning on an infomercial is truly going to make that much difference to you.
What if I can offer you a solution that will help you to attain greatness, to become a success in your health efforts and realize your potential?
All I ask is that you take your time reading this book, take it all in at your own pace, and try not to get overwhelmed, as there are several ways you can do things when it comes to living a life with holistic wellness. There is no right or wrong way to think about what you feel you are most comfortable doing.
This is something I felt the need to share because of the times we are currently living in. Now being in my early sixties, and given time to reflect, I believe it will be helpful to the world.
All that’s left now is for you to go through this guide and decide what path you want to take, then give it a go!
My sincere prayer is that you will find this information helpful in giving you some clarity and an enlightening purpose for your life that will be beneficial to not only you, but your family and community as well.
Take 15 - 45 minutes to brain dump everything you can think of on a blank sheet of paper.
This is where you can first start to utilize the benefits of writing in your journal. Your journal is your private place to write down your thoughts to help organize your life, clear your head, and prioritize your thoughts and plan your life, before you go to your planner to schedule your day accordingly.
In particular, writing what you may have just dreamed about the night before. Start your day with the focus of an eagle by writing out everything that’s in your heart and mind.
Because we’re so busy with everything in life as a whole, we can get overwhelmed and stressed out. Brain dumping will help out greatly in this regard.
Because brain dumping clears your mind. Recording all of your thoughts and feelings someplace else allows you to get it out of your head, to stop thinking about it. The entire process also helps you determine which thoughts, feelings, and ideas are important and which ones you can let go of.
“Mental health” refers to your overall psychological well-being. It includes the way you feel about yourself, the quality of your relationships, and your ability to manage your feelings and deal with difficulties.
Anyone can experience mental or emotional health problems — and over a lifetime, many of us will. I believe I read somewhere that one in five adults in the western world live with mental health or substance abuse problems.
Even if that is not precisely so, we can all agree that there are too many people who unfortunately experience these difficulties.
Here are 10 tips that can help you elevate your mood, become more resilient, and enjoy life more: make social connections; stay active; talk to someone; appeal to your senses; take up a relaxation practice; make leisure and contemplation a priority; talk to someone; Eat a brain-healthy diet to support strong mental health; don’t skimp on sleep; find purpose and meaning for your life; and get help if you need it.
LIFESTYLE TIPS - The right time to brush your teeth. Paul Scheider
Put yourself on your side! Make a commitment to yourself to become a more positive person. Don’t do it because others want you to do or as a reaction to somebody else’s opinions ; it for you and because of you. You will be the one to reap the benefits in the first place.

PSYCHOLOGY
Somehow we got swept
up in the rat race of the old year.
Treading water to keep from drowning
in the busyness of our lives, we ended
up going through the motions,
promising ourselves that when we
became less busy or less stressed we’d
lose weight, stop smoking, spend
more quality time with our families …
the list goes on. But before we knew
it, the year was gone, and we hadn’t
ticked any goals off our list.
Now at the beginning of another
year, with its sense of a fresh start,
we once again vow to commit to
the changes that will make our lives
happier, healthier, more meaningful.
These are my three top tactics for
finally getting your resolutions to stick.
Ready,set,go!We all do it: make New Year’s resolutions in January and then break them within
the month (or week). Here’s how to make them stick …
By Dina Cramer
1 Set a specific and
inspiring goal
The reason why most resolutions fail is
that we have not connected with the
“why” of the goal and we haven’t got
a good enough reason to achieve it.
For example, if someone offers you a
piece of cake while you’re dieting, it’s
easier to say no if you’re trying to slim
down for your upcoming wedding
than if you’re trying to lose weight for
no particular reason.
This is because you have a clear,
specific, inspiring goal. You can
see yourself looking good in your
wedding dress and that is more
enticing than the cake. On the other
hand, if you want to lose weight for
no specific reason, and you have not
connected to the goal emotionally
and visually, you may be more likely
to give in to temptation. To increase
the odds that you’ll ace a goal, take
time to visualise how you’ll feel once
you achieve it. Imagine how reaching
this goal will enhance your life – you
need to actually see it. Try to link it to
a special occasion. See yourself at that
event, dressed in beautiful clothes,
looking good, interacting confidently
and happily with the people there.
Make it feel real.
Quick tip Take a couple of minutes
every day to visualise and connect
with your goal. You can even put
a motivational picture close by to
inspire you whenever you look at
it. If your visualisation is real and
inspiring enough, meeting your goal
will be more enticing than the short-
term gratification you may get from
breaking your resolve.

2 Set daily deliberate actions
In his book, The Slight Edge, Jeff Olsen explains why only 5% of people
are successful. He uses the idea of compound interest to explain that
simple disciplines repeated consistently over time create success,
while simple errors in judgment or poor choices repeated over time
lead to failure.
The problem is that small errors in judgement don’t impact us
immediately but have a big impact over time. For example, eating
a burger today won’t kill you. However, if you consistently eat
burgers, over time it might negatively affect your health. Choosing
to not exercise today won’t do any damage, but making that choice
consistently over time will shorten your lifespan.
He goes on to say that the activities that create success are so simple
and easy to do that they are also easy not to do, and that is where the
problem comes in. We think that if we make a bad choice today we can
remedy it tomorrow. Chances are, we will make that same poor choice
again and again because it seems insignificant. But compounded over
time, it becomes significant. The more we make poor choices, the
faster we slide down the slippery slope of failure.
We can use this positively too. If we make good choices consistently
over time, we create health, happiness and success. For example, you
go out with a friend for lunch. You really feel like a burger but you
choose to have a salad. Making the healthier choice consistently over
time will create success. Jeff calls these “daily deliberate actions”. It is
not about the grand gestures, which New Year’s resolutions tend to be.
It is about the small daily, deliberate actions we take towards our goal.
It is better to exercise five minutes every day than one hour a week. It
will compound over time and create more success. .
Quick tip Before you do something, ask yourself: Will this bring me
closer or further away from my goal? Then make the choices that will
help you reach your goal.

PSYCHOLOGY
3 Apply the principle
of integrity
Integrity is the fuel that gets us to
where we want to go. We have very
little control over our thoughts and
feelings. Thoughts just pop into our
head whether we like them or not. We
also have an immediate, emotional
reaction to events, and it is very hard
to control these emotions.
The one thing we do have complete
control over is our words. We can
consciously choose every word we
utter. It’s possible to change our
current reality by changing our words
and committing to them instead of
being controlled by our thoughts and
feelings. For example, you want to get
healthier, so you decide to exercise
every morning. But when your alarm
goes off at 5am, you think,
I don’t feel like exercising. I had a late
night. I’ve got a busy day. I will exercise
tomorrow. Sound familiar? Integrity
means doing what you say you will
do, by the time you say you’ll do it.
In order to have integrity you need
to commit to your words, not to your
thoughts and feelings.
This is important because our
subconscious brain is like a computer.
It records everything we say, think
and do, and stores this information.
Every time we say we are going to do
something and we don’t, our brains
take note of this, affecting our
self-esteem.
What’s more, this subconscious
brain is completely factual and
objective. It does not take excuses into
account. For example, if you say you
will be somewhere at 5pm and you
arrive a minute late, were you there
at 5pm? No. Your subconscious mind
notes that you failed to be there on
time, no matter what your excuse was.
Our brains rate us according to how
often we keep our word. Then when
we set ourselves a goal, they work out
our expected success according to the
stats. For example, if you keep your
word 60% of the time and your goal is
to earn R40,000 per month, your brain
will aim for 60% of this because this
is what it believes you are capable
of earning. Therefore, the higher
your integrity level, the more likely
you are to achieve exactly what
you want to achieve.
Quick tip Cultivate integrity by
delivering on promises made to
yourself and others. HI
