RESOLUTIONS

OR RE-FOCUS?

In all fairness, barely anyone commits to their New Year’s resolutions. In fact, only 8% of

people actually stick to their resolutions and 80% fail by February. The new year seems like
a fresh start, motivating us to be more productive and successful, but, by the time
actual life comes into play, concentration is gradually pulled away to other subjects we

deem more important.

However impressive it is to be part of that 8%, it isn’t that crucial to devote yourself to
completing those firm decisions to change your life. The resolutions are almost always
rather general ideas, so, if one mistake is made, the capitulating mindset overtakes us and

we give up.

A better way to make sure you have a better year would be to RE FOCUS your goals for
yourself along the way, realistic goals at that, that would be easy to accomplish and

therefore does not reset your motivation.

This mindset can help you in many ways, like taking the leap to buy your first home, or
invest in a rental property. Also with RE FOCUS, the original goal of owning a 4 bedroom
home in Central Auckland by March, may now change to having a 3 Bedroom in South

Auckland by June.. Giving you more leeway and flexibility. So forget the Resolutions this
year and just Re-Focus to achieve your goals.
