How can I write a good New Year's resolution so that my efforts will not be in vain?

A year's plan lies in spring, and a day's plan lies in morning. At the beginning of the new year, everything revived. It's time to consider the plan for 2023. With a goal, there is a direction.

In fact, most people may not have completed their plans last year, and disappointment is inevitable. The main reason is that the plan may be unscientific and unreasonable, may be too high, may not be specific enough, or may not keep up with the changes. So, what does a good New Year's resolution look like? It can be summarized as "clear goals and clear paths".

First, the goal is clear

Defining specific goals is the basis for successfully completing the plan, otherwise it will run in the opposite direction.

First of all, we must distinguish between goals and desires. "I want to have money" is the desire, and "I want to earn 1 10,000" is the goal. "Leaving this year" is the wish, and "participating in 20 blind date activities this year" is the goal. Desire is what people want psychologically, and the goal is to formulate specific implementation plans.

Secondly, the goal needs to "jump", which is the "+1 principle" that Hecaitou said. For example, you can run 5 kilometers at a time and make yourself an 8-kilometer plan. You can write four articles a month, so set yourself six articles a month. We should always remember not to become a big fat man in one breath, and give ourselves more time. The ideal can be bigger and the steps can be smaller. After all, the cycle of losing weight is 3 years, and the cycle of career planning is 5 years. It takes 10 years to reach the professional level of a skill.

Finally, make a big plan and do a big thing. Most people are always unconsciously greedy and want to do anything, such as finding a partner, changing jobs and improving their academic qualifications. It is attractive to cover everything, but it is also outstanding that the most important thing can be completed within one year.

Second, the road is clear.

Path obviously refers to what can be done to realize the plan. These things are concrete, and the results after completion will definitely promote the plan.

First of all, the path can be clearly quantified, and how many figures are completed at what stage, such as running plan, need to be specific to each week and how many kilometers to run every month. For example, reading books, how many chapters are completed every week, and so on.

Secondly, the path can be decomposed and decomposed. If a plan cannot be decomposed, it will be difficult to achieve, because it is difficult to stick to it, because there is no positive feedback from a process. On the contrary, we use okr to decompose the plan step by step, and the completion rate is very high, because we can clearly see that we are getting closer and closer to the realization of the plan, and we can correct it according to the feedback in the middle.

Finally, the path can be divided into steps and periods. Any plan must have a process. A plan completed in one day can't be used as a New Year's resolution. A good plan should be realized by stages.

Third, my New Year's resolution.

1. In our work, we have created an operation tool that has been well received by colleagues of the branch account managers, and the measurement standard has been well received by more than 80% account managers. The specific path is to deeply study the whole marketing process of account managers and refine and summarize the operational ability that can improve efficiency.

2. In life, keep running and take part in two marathons. The specific path is to exercise at least 10 km every week, and then sign up at least once in spring and winter. Since the COVID-19 epidemic was released at the end of 2022, ordinary people have been like birds that have not been unlocked, but many people find that our wings seem to be locked, and no matter how hard we try, it is difficult to fly as high as before. The three-year epidemic has not only damaged our economy and shrunk our pockets, but also caused mental trauma and changed our view of future life. We work hard and save money desperately. We think we have reached the well-off level we have been expecting. We have enough money and food at home, our children are filial and the elderly are healthy. In the end, we found that people's vitality is so weak. A little COVID-19 can make us exhausted. Since the epidemic was released, we are about to usher in a new year. In the year of the Rabbit in 2023, this rabbit is not the most suitable time. It is cute, but it is the weakest animal in the food chain. Sudden noise, strangers and strange animals, such as cats and dogs, will make it panic. Although he is good at running, he will inevitably become the prey of carnivores. In terms of the living conditions of ordinary people today, it is like a rabbit living in the wild. It is nervous, unstable, and at the slightest sign of trouble, it will immediately be on guard or quickly hide. Even the weakest animals, such as cats, snakes, mice and insects, will be disturbed. Now people's hearts are so fragile that they will collapse when pressed. However, there is only less than a week left in the Year of the Tiger, and the Year of the Rabbit is coming to us quickly. How should the Year of the Rabbit in 2023 be spent? Have you thought about it? First of all, what you should know most in 2023 is to "tighten your belt" and prepare for a tight life. This is not an alarmist, but the most fashionable and helpless sentence at the moment. Daily food, clothing, housing and transportation, medical treatment, anti-epidemic for three years. Each of us has witnessed the rising prices of clothes and food. Generally speaking, it is related to rising raw materials, rising oil prices, rising transportation costs, difficulties in recruiting some enterprises and rising production costs. It is also related to global inflation. In a small way, the epidemic has also caused people's income to decrease and their expenses to increase. Although there is not much fish and meat on the table, the time for shopping in the market is decreasing, and the mood for taking out money is also decreasing. Many people stop spending money lavishly and start to scrimp. Open source and reduce expenditure have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and will not be released for a long time. Rich people are also calculating that the extra money used to be used to buy a house and a car, but now they dare not invest. Putting too much money on real estate will affect the cash flow, and I don't know if the property I bought will depreciate in the future, which will not pay off. Rich people have such an attitude. As poor people, they have to tighten their belts and prepare for a tight life. Many private business owners are complaining about the three-year epidemic and how many shops have closed down. Even if you have some money now, do you dare to invest blindly? In 2023, it is not appropriate to invest, let alone to be whimsical and dream of making a fortune. Wealth develops with the development of society. Now many large enterprises are struggling. How many opportunities and abilities do you have to ride the wind and waves and forge ahead?
