Frederick Thomas London Top Tips

Be specific

"Dreams are powerless unless they are specific"

Seems simple enough? But you'd be surprised how many people aren't specific. If your new years resolution isn't specific then how will you achieve it?! Knowing what needs to be done and when is a vital first step. Clarity is key.

Compose a game plan

"A goal without a plan is just a wish"

Get those dates in the diary! Set yourself weekly or monthly goals to achieve. If it's a year long goal then you'll feel like you'll have all the time in the world, and that infamous phrase "I'll do it tomorrow" will be used more often than not! Break your resolution down into achievable time frames. It will help you to keep on track and you'll feel great ticking off achievements every week!

Tell the world

"Tell the world what you intend to do, but first show it"

Tell your family, your friends, your work colleagues, your dog, tell everyone! So when you feel like giving it all up, you won't let yourself! Will the embarrassment of having to tell everyone that you've given up be worth it?

Baby steps

"Big journeys begin with small steps"

After all, slow and steady wins the race. If marathons were easy we'd all be running them! Remember, what your doing is amazing and amazing things take time.

Get support

“There is no such thing as a self-made man. You will reach your goals only with the help of others.”

A support network is essential in achieving your goals. Whether its through joining a club, group, or enlisting the help of a friend. Being apart of a team will never leave you without motivation.

Don't give up

"A winner is just a loser who tried one more time"

And finally, it's probably easier said than done but don't give up! No matter how hard it gets try to remember why you set your new years resolution. Don't let one bad day ruin the whole of 2019. We believe in you!

So there you go, Frederick Thomas London's top tips on how to stick to and achieve your new years resolutions, no matter how big or small!
