Kickstart 2010 with the F.A.S.T program!

New Year's resolutions come, New Year's resolutions go - I'm sure many would agree with me here!

Remember last time when I asked, "Are you interested or committed?" Well, I'm going to help you commit to your resolutions with my new F.A.S.T program.

I want to celebrate the New Year (the New Decade in fact!) by helping you achieve all of those awesome things you said you would. The promise/s you made whilst clinking wine glasses and popping crackers are ready to be put into action!

I'm putting to you a 28 day challenge to achieve those goals. Whether it's losing a few kg's, quitting smoking or spending more time with the family - with F.A.S.T, this year is the year we're going to make it happen!

Get on board for the 28 day program and each week in Feb I'll send you an audio and accompanying worksheets, all specially designed to kickstart your new decade!

If you missed the Intro email, check it out here - F.A.S.T Program. And if you wanna sign up to receive the emails in Feb, don't be shy - it's super easy! Just follow this link - subscribe to F.A.S.T program.

Time to un-crumple that list sitting in your garbage bin, copy & pin it up everywhere and follow through on your promise.

Now to rephrase the opening statement - New Year's resolution's come, New Year's resolutions STAY!

At this time of year we all hear people making their New Year's Resolutions. You know the ones..."I am going to do X this year" or "This is the year that I will achieve Y" or "I am going to give up Z". You and I both know (and usually so does the person making the statement) that these things are not REALLY going to happen!

Oscar Wilde wrote: "A New Year's resolution is something that goes in one year and out the other.'' It's true; it's a known fact that most New Year's resolutions are broken by the end of January, often within the first week and sometimes within hours of their delivery.
Why is this? Because they are statements carefully crafted and delivered to an audience with a resounding expression of confidence and faith.

What brings them undone is
the difference between interested and committed.


These New Year's resolutions are more to do with something someone is interested in doing or achieving. Somewhere in their subconscious they have developed the belief that by sharing their promise with people in the late evening of December 31 or early hours of January 1 that they will simply come true - I know there's lots of heads out there nodding!

Unfortunately, it doesn't take long for it all to unravel. When you are interested in something it doesn't take up much space in your day to day thoughts as you focus your mind elsewhere.

Think about it, if you were a car salesman and someone walked into your dealership and said, "I am interested in buying a car", how would you feel about making a sale? Luke warm at the best I would say!

Now imagine someone walks in and says, "I am committed to buying a car today!" Your eyeballs would see dollar signs and excitement levels would surge. Afterall, you've got a hot prospect on your hands who knows what they want and mean it. Resolutions, goals, targets, dreams, achievements and plans are the same. The ones you are interested in easily fall by the wayside and are too easy to cop out of. That's why so many aren't achieved and we continue to follow the same pattern year in, year out!

However, when you are committed, it puts real purpose behind your resolutions and shows you are serious about making them happen.

Telling someone you are interested won't work, but you can definitely demonstrate that you are committed to something by the actions you take. Get committed and take part in my GET REAL F.A.ST program. It's free and will give you the tools to kick of 2010 with a bang!

Whether you've made 2010 the year to quit smoking, boost your savings or lose a few kilos, the 28 day F.A.S.T challenge will help you get committed. I'll be sending email updates each Monday in Feb.
