We all make them. But we rarely keep them. What is it about New Year’s resolutions? We always start out with the best intentions. But after a few weeks (or months) we fall back into our old habits, and those wonderful resolutions become nothing more than a distant memory.
There must be a secret to keeping them, right?
There is. New Year’s resolutions aren’t a matter of “good intentions.” That’s the mistake most people make. The manifestation of a resolution requires a change in lifestyle. This kind of commitment begins in the mind, and that means you must develop a different mindset.
Maybe one of your New Year’s resolutions every year is to eat healthier, but you can’t seem to stick with it. Why not? It’s because you didn’t change your mindset.
Some people become vegetarian, vegan, or raw vegan and stick with it year after year. How do they do it? They develop a different mindset.
This occurs for a variety of reasons. Some have been diagnosed with cancer or other serious illnesses. Some are tired of living with chronic pain. Others have struggled for years with weight loss issues.
Whatever their reason, this is their “story.” And that’s where you have to start. What’s your story? Attach it to your New Year’s resolution, and your mindset will change.
For example, let’s take my story. Five years ago, I was diagnosed with low bone density. It was a complete shock, so you can imagine how I panicked.
Immediately, I began to search for answers. I discovered stress and my standard American diet (SAD) were accelerating my condition and slowly killing me. Yikes!
I continued my research and learned a diet high in whole foods (fruits and vegetables) would counteract the negative effects of the SAD diet on my bone condition. This information led to a resolution to change my diet to one that’s more plant-based and nutritious.
When I attached this resolution to my story, my mindset and lifestyle changed.
How about you? What’s your story? Whatever it might be, attach it to your New Year’s resolution to change your mindset. Soon your lifestyle will conform to your new mindset. And before you know it, you’ll manifest your resolution!
