We have come to the end of the year and, as always, it is time to take stock. Most likely, only a vague memory remains of the good intentions we made exactly one year ago.

Sign that they have been lost along the way, maybe because we abandoned them or maybe because we replaced them with other goals.

Maybe we are not the same as we were a year ago and maybe our needs have changed.

The importance of taking stock

EVERY NEW BEGINNING COMES FROM THE END OF ANOTHER BEGINNING. (SENECA)

35 OF THE BEST QUOTES

From a psychological point of view, the moment of the budget is very important because it allows us to stop and reflect on ourselves and, if done well, gives us an impetus to engage in changes that can contribute to our well-being and the achievement of our next goals.

Let's remember the last 12 months. We might feel that our year has been poor, made up of ups and downs that we think have compensated for each other in most cases. Or we will have the feeling that we are preparing for great success or a great failure.

In any case, the feelings that will emerge will be the basis on which we will build the intentions for the new year.

So let’s try to value the positive aspects and avoid anything that seems too negative to us. Have we had any disappointments? Chess? Let's learn how to resize them.

Learn to resize

Let us avoid giving too much weight to our emotions, the greatest joy, and the greatest disappointment will have been only one of the events that we have faced. Sure, it's the most emotionally involved, but not the only one.

Let us not rejoice that we do not fall into the error of not wallowing in success by delaying engagement on other fronts.

When it comes to negative experiences, we tend to give them more weight than they have. Imagine that we are judged by others for their failures and we have the feeling that we will carry the weight for an indefinite period, but certainly a very long one.

Most of the time this will not be the case. Others don't care about our failures. Like us, everyone will be led to focus mainly on themselves and forget about us.

How many times have we experienced situations that seemed insurmountable to us and that we almost have a hard time remembering years later? How many people seemed irreplaceable to us and were replaced without regret (perhaps accompanied by a sigh of relief…)? How many new opportunities have presented themselves after we missed an opportunity that seemed unique to us?

HOW TO FREE YOURSELF FROM NEGATIVE RUMINATIONS TO BE MORE EFFECTIVE?

A failure can also be the realization that this road was bad, or at least as bad for us, so understand better and change direction.

We learn to seize the positive signs…

…and let's not give disappointment the power to destroy us. For a person who has disappointed us, others will certainly have had gestures of friendship towards us of which we may not even have been aware, absorbed by our dominant thought. We learn to grasp them.

We go through with our minds the difficult moments from which we have managed to get out, the experiences we have had and which have made us grow, the disappointments that have not stopped us, the commitment and the fatigue which have led to results, the hand we held out to someone who needed us.

Let's go from here and when we toast the New Year with new intentions, let's remember that sometimes, to open a new door, you have to close others.

What the new year has in store for us

What pleases us most when we await the arrival of the new year is the expectation it brings, it is the openness to the fulfillment of all desires, it is a mixture of illusion and hope that will and commitment can turn into reality.

Well, we help fate with our commitment.

Certainly, when we raise our chalice at midnight on December 31st, certain wishes that we would like to fulfill during the next twelve months will pass through our minds. Sometimes these are just fantasies that we no longer think about. Other times it will be really important to us, in which case it will be good to engage.

let's be positive

The beginning of the year is the right time to give a turn to our life, thanks to the general expectation that accompanies this period, the days of celebration that bring with them a few more occasions to stop, think about ourselves and your desires.

To make the most of this opportunity, we need to learn and be positive. Indeed, our expectations condition the result that we will be able to obtain: believing in ourselves and our potential will bring us considerably closer to the objective.

3 POWERFUL POSITIVE THOUGHTS THAT WILL INCREASE YOUR SUCCESS

Let's set goals

The objectives we want to achieve must have specific characteristics: they must be clear, we must know where we want to get to and we already have in mind the strategy to adopt to achieve it.

They must be achievable goals, with no need to waste time and energy on impossible things or beyond our control.

Better, if they are achievable in the short term, say a few months, it will make it easier to maintain focus on the result we want to achieve and, if successful, it will encourage us to commit to the achievement of subsequent objectives.

With each goal achieved, we give ourselves a prize, something that we don't normally do: a special dinner, the purchase of something we want, a weekend somewhere... any gratification linked to the success obtained will stimulate our commitment. future.

HOW TO MANAGE YOUR TIME EFFECTIVELY TO ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS

Let's protect ourselves from failures

To reduce the risk of failure, we must be able to account for our possible fault, to justify ourselves, with ourselves or with others, in case a lack of commitment on our part occurs.

To do this, there are two infallible ways: we write down in black and white our good intentions and the tactics we want to use to achieve them and periodically reread these notes to check if we are proceeding as the script. If not, let's rationally analyze the reasons and try to change course.

The second recommended way is to involve at least one other person in achieving our goal. It can be a person who shares our intentions, in which case we can stimulate and support each other, or simply a person to whom we communicate our intentions and to whom we entrust the task of "monitoring" and bring us back to the right path if we lose it.
