How Long Do New Year’s Resolutions Last?

Few resolutions last even through January. Good intention, bad idea. Here’s what agents of change do when they want a proven way to take a good intention and turn it into a life changing strategy.

Focus on only one person. Maybe it’s you or your spouse, your boss, a child, a friend.  Think it through.  Who is the one person that if you improved your relationship would bring you more happiness and success?

A long list is useless but identifying the one person who could make a difference in your life allows you to strategize about the various ways to accomplish this.

You may not be surprised to find that many people who are successful at evolving focus on themselves.  Want to he happier?  Spend more family time?  Look for a more fulfilling job?  Want to be nicer to yourself?  More appreciative of what you have?  More resilient?  More confident?  More social?
