How are your 2021 New Years Resolutions coming along?
Posted on October 26, 2021 by Sina Brus, One of Thousands of Life Coaches on Noomii.
Normally we don't talk about NYR in October, but there's never been a better time to start than now. If you have goals let's get started!
Maybe you have already made your new year’s resolutions (which seems more like a fancy adult wish list most of the time than actual goal setting, right?), consider any of these exercises as a different way to set goals for 2021, so that we make sure we don’t keep making the same mistakes and experience the same challenges. If you want different results in your life, you will have to do something differently. The clue is often in the little things we do. Once we have that information we can make a better goal list for 2021 about who we’re going to be, what we want and how we’re going to get there.
“What we do everyday matters more than what we do once in a while.”
– Gretchen Rubin quoted in the Five Minute Journal.
A different way to set goals in 2021
Tim Ferriss suggests doing a Past Year Review. He says: “I’m often asked about how I approach New Year’s resolutions. The truth is that I no longer approach them at all, even though I did for decades. Why the change? I have found “past year reviews” (PYR) more informed, valuable, and actionable than half-blindly looking forward with broad resolutions.”
You can also try these 3 quick prompts to assess the past year:
1. KEEP – what things in 2020 have supported the life you’re trying to create?
2. STOP – what things did you do in 2020 that didn’t support your vision?
3. START – what will you start doing in 2021 to support your dreams?

If you want to go deeper, I recommend Tony Robbins’s set of questions from Power of Momentum:
-What did you love in the last year?
-What were some of your best moments?
-What did you accomplish in the last year?
-What are some things from the last year that you want to duplicate?
-What was not so great in the last year?
-What was challenging?
-What do you not want to have happen again?
-What did you learn by going through these experiences?
-What decisions did you make that were empowering?
-What decisions might you make this year as a result?
& lastly do the Framework for Success to help you create a quick recipe for your success in 2021. There’s never been a better time to set goals and get after it. You can have it all.
