You don’t need goals, you need better rituals. New Year’s resolutions are routinely set, and broken. It’s not because people weren’t disciplined enough or didn’t have goals, it’s because they didn’t create better rituals that align with those goals.
Think about it, tons of people set the goal of getting healthy and fit every New Year. Fitness clubs are always jam packed for the first 2 weeks of the year then they level off to the regular attendees after that. Goals don’t work on their own; it’s rituals that make them happen.
Better rituals mean not hanging out with unhealthy people that sit around watching TV eating unhealthy food. If you want to get fit, make it a ritual of hanging out with healthy people that eat healthy foods, and exercise on a regular basis. Unfit people hang out with unfit people. If you want to improve on something in your life, find people that have reached the goal you want to achieve, then copy their rituals.
R & D is a really simple formula: it stands for rip-off and duplicate.
Everyone already has rituals, but most don’t even notice them, take brushing your teeth for example. You probably do it every day at the same time and don’t even notice it. Our parents taught us this ritual so we didn’t develop cavities.
Studies have shown that if you commit to a regular ritual on a daily basis, it becomes a natural habit after about 5 weeks.
Any resolution can be achieved, including becoming debt free; all you need is better rituals. Nothing comes fast or easy and goals alone are useless without committing to rituals that will help you achieve those goals.
