Power of Baby steps

With the New Year upon us, I bet you have set Resolutions that you wish to change in your life. The common ones are losing weight, getting a better job, and/or finding a significant other.
January 15th is a special day because that marks the day that 80% of people give up their New Year's Resolutions and go back to old habits. 80%!

How can we become the few and the proud who actually stick with our goals and see the positive results?
Baby steps

Although it may not be the sexy thing to do, baby steps are what keep you moving and motivated. While others are becoming hyper-motivated eventually to fail and regret making a resolution, you will be taking baby steps.
Let's apply this to an example.
Let's say you wanna lose weight... Great! Let's actually take that and move with it.
There's gonna be one guy who is sick and tired of being overweight and resolves to go to the gym 5 times a week at 5:30 AM! He won't last the entire week.
Now there's you who is gonna first start by getting to know the gym. Walk around the lockers and the weights to become familiar with everything. That is baby step number one.
Next time you go to the gym, you will do one workout.
Do you see how this works?

Post a comment below on how you plan to surpass all your friends and colleagues by taking baby steps.
