Three Steps To Succeed With Your New Year's Resolutions
Year 2018
There are three steps which helped me last year to succeed with my resolution.

First
First of all, you need to set your goal correctly. I think this is the most important step of all three. Don't understand me wrong, I don't mean set it easy. Make it challenging for yourself. But your goal should be trackable and countable. For example, don't set it to (I want to be fit) Instead set it to ( I want to lose 7 kilos or I want to have 13% bodyfat by the end of the year) Don't set your goal to something unreachable. Be realistic.

Second
The second step is to give yourself time. Don't try to reach your 2018 resolution in the first month or so. You have a whole year to reach it. The resolution should be long-term motivation. There is nothing worse than trying to lose 5 kilos in one month (The weight will most likely come back soon if you do it). You should have a strategy for reaching your goals.

Third
And last but not least: set some rewards for your achievement something to look forward to. It doesn't have to be big or expensive, but anything which will make you happy. One day trip somewhere, dinner in the favorite restaurant or make some bet with your friends it is also really motivating.
My 2018 resolutions are
1 Reach 300 active followers at the end of this year.
2 Have 3% less body fat with the same weight.
As a reward for achieving this, I chose Dinner in amazing steak bar for me and my girlfriend.
I hope all you will succeed with your desires and resolutions. I wish you only good in 2018 and let’s hope Steemit will get attention which it should have.
What is your resolution for 2018? And what are you doing to be successful with it?

I don't necessarily do New Year's Resolutions as I'm constantly going through phases of planning, acting, reassessing, and starting that process all over again throughout the year.
However, from my most recent reassessments, I was in a car accident in September which really took a lot out of my energy. Since then I've been living on fumes, so to speak. So my planning now consists of :
-Getting back into creating menu plans for the week
-Getting back into a cleaning routine for the house
-Making specific improvements on my teaching job
Happy New Year to you!
Thank you for your view. I will definitely consider it for smaller goals.
I hope you will be all right soon. What exactly are you teaching?
Thank you. The accident could have done a lot more damage, so I am thankful it wasn't worse. I will heal, it will take about a year, and I'm already feeling much better. The worst part was how exhausted it made me every day.
I teach piano and voice lessons.
