It would be great to time travel back to the pre-Christmas sales to undo much of what we did and spent. But pre-Christmas now starts on Halloween so that’s a lot of time travel.

The most common mistake (and easy to avoid) is to not return, or begin, those positive changes too drastically. The New Year’s Resolution hypnotic spell is to convince yourself you can wake up on January 2nd and stop smoking-drinking-over eating-lose weight-get-fit in an instant.

  1. Make a proper assessment of where you are NOW
  2. Make a REALISTIC assessment of where you want to reach (target weight, work hours, calories intake, etc.)

  3. Divide your current status by the time of goal arrival (example THREE-months: 40 pounds divided by 3 = approx. 13lbs a month/4lbs a week. That IS sensible!)
