Why Do You Think Financial Resolutions Never Work to Stop Foreclosure?

Danny had called me this morning to talk about his New Year’s Resolution. He was clear and concise.

At least that is exactly what he proclaimed. He was going to get out of debt this year and start building wealth.

He declared it and spoke it and there was so much confidence in his voice that he almost had me totally convinced.

I know you’ve been there.

You’re there right now.

It’s a New Year and you’ve just finished making a promise to yourself. You are going to get out of debt and turn your financial life around completely.

But, I’m leaning over my desk now and looking you square in the eye and asking you point blank, “Are you really?”

No you’re not!

Who are you kidding?

Didn’t you just do what everybody else does?

You declared, vowed and uttered a New Year’s Resolution. That’s what you’re suppose to do as you start the New Year.

Right!

And getting out of debt, stopping your foreclosure and losing weight are the number one things on your agenda, aren’t they?

Yes, it is true that most people are feeling warm and fuzzy around their new plans right now. But it’s also true that most people will drop those New Year’s resolutions and resort back to their old ways of being quite quickly.

Probably, before the month is done.

Yes,  Danny and most others will fail to accomplish what they promised they would do. But it really doesn’t have to be that way.

You can choose to have power with your “Word” and your “Promise” to yourself which you so fondly call your “New Year’s Resolution.”

So, I’m going to share three major tips most people miss when it comes to keeping their New Year’s Resolution.

I’m focusing on financial resolutions but this can easily be applied to all other aspects of your life.

1. Create your resolution as a clear, focused, measurable objective or goal

The truth is if you aim at nothing you will hit it every time.

You must establish a clear focus and identify markers that you can use to measure your results.

Without a practical and tangible way to measure your results how would you even know, how close you are to reaching your goal?

If you have a clear picture of the future then you’ll take giant steps. If the pathway ahead of you is fuzzy and uncertain then you would take hesitant steps.

2. Develop a plan of action that brings your resolution into reality.

Remember a New Year’s Resolution is not reality.

It exists solely as a possibility.

It is reality that is unformed and non-tangible. There is a gap between your resolution and your current reality. The only thing that will reduce that gap and bring your new possibility into reality is the actions you take to put your plans in place.

So ,you must have a plan and you must have action.

That is the intermediate step – a plan of action.

3. Build your New Year’s resolution into a powerful resolve.

It’s just that simple. In order to declare a New Year’s Resolution you must first be resolute.

And in order to be resolute you must have resolve.

What is resolve you ask?

I define it as an unwavering commitment to do or accomplish a task even if it kills you. When you come to the place where you are able to say “this shall be simply because I said it shall be then you have resolve.

One of my mentors Jim Rohn talks about resolve in this way; They said I can’t climb this mountain.

It’s too steep, too treacherous, too dangerous and too hard!

But it’s my mountain. And you’ll either see me waving from the peaks or dead on the side from trying.

This is a key ingredient which when coupled with the previous two will create a profound transformation in your life. By embracing this attitude you will turn yourself into an unstoppable creature.

By applying these three simply principles specifically to your financial goals I promise you can turn your entire financial situation around.

And you’ll have an amazing story to tell of personal victory and triumph experienced as a result of your New Years Resolution.

This time by following these three principles you can really begin to invent yourself newly bring a whole new person to your circumstances.

Inside your New Year’s Resolution there is a dynamic commitment not just to the task or goal you set out to accomplish but to yourself. You probably never recognized it before but you made a promise to yourself.

The question now becomes “How good are you at keeping that promise you made to yourself?

Are you going to be stuck or are you going to be powerful?

By standing in the place of “Resolution” and clinging to a mighty “Resolve” you actually cause a shift in your life that will alter your future.

So, let’s just see.

What is your resolution?

A place where you are able to say “this shall be simply because I said it shall be then you have resolve. A place where you are able to say “this shall be simply because I said it shall be then you have resolve.

What actions are you taking today?

Do you have resolve?
