RESOULTIONS?
Read More:
The word *RESOLUTION* is a verb formed into a noun.
It comes from the word "resolve", which means to solve, again! And so many
people get into a pattern of re-solving old problems that they never actually
solve them because they've turned a process into a singular static event.
Meaning they get "stuck" in a pattern a bad habit, and make they make it part of their identity. Then falling into the trap of blaming bad behavior on their past. For example, "I've always been this way" or blaming it on genetics, "my parents were overweight". Or blaming it on their environment, "my brother smoked" or "we grew up poor". In other words they fall into the trap of "victim". VICTIMS ARE DEAD!
The often hard to swallow, difficult to face truths are;
1. "Your past does not equal your future" - Tony Robbins
2. Researchers are now saying; "genetics only 10%, behavior 90%"
3. The behaviors of your family, friends and peers are either a warning
of what NOT to do or an example to follow.
4. We all have a self determined level of personal "Response-Ability"
So yes - skip the "resolutions" and start Living with Intention and self development, continuously evolving, making new choices, seeking coaches, mentors, new friends that are like minded, who have already achieved the results you seek, asking for their guidance, and actually acting on what they share with you.

Welcome to your life!
A few years ago I took a amazing class from Landmark Education. One of the subjects they talked about is welcome to your life.
In which you past does not reflect your future and your future does not reflect your past. Our past judgment can have a impact on our future, yet we can decide to be something different than who we are today.

Great post Vikki! It is
Great post Vikki! It is true that "Life is only 10% What Happens to us and 90% How You Respond to It!" We can all easily dwell on the past of negative things that have happened to us just as easy as we can Remember the good Positive things. We must accept what happened to us in the past and learn from it so we can Change our Future.

Your past is just that, your past. If it was good then improve it. If it was unacceptable then move forward. Change is always possible.
Thanks for sharing.
Who Isn't A Victim?
Hi Vikki, Great article! Sooo sooo many people live as victims and most never would agree to being one. I guess that's where the hard part comes in, recognising your own faults, your own ways of thinking and being.
It is hard to tell someone they are being victims. It’s a type of criticism nobody likes to accept. How would you deal with people who do not see the light for themselves?
All the best,
Rutger.
Let's astound ourselves
We really have no excuses. The only thing stopping us from growing and receiving more in life is ourselves.
Thomas Edison said, "If we did the things we are capable of , we would astound ourselves."
Good stuff here Vikki!

We all have CHOICES!!
We all have choice!! Choose to move forward and leave the past behind. My choice is to continue to work on ME, so that I become a better person and I can help as many people as possible and make a difference in this world. The choices we make today, determine our tomorrows!
Thanks for sharing Vikki!

The Blame Game
Are past is a place of reference...not a place to live...it is very easy to blame others and our environment for where we are now. The truth is, you have all the control on where your life is going to go,your future is still unwritten!
Great article!

What does resolution mean?
Hi Vikki, thanks for sharing this great article on resolutions. I've never stopped and actually thought about what that word means. It means to resolve something. I learned from this article that some people continue to work on their resolution but its a continued motion and never actually does get resolved. Great thought Vikki!
Thanks VIcki
Thanks for that article Vicki,
No matter what comes our way we must keep walking thru the Cement of Life and Not get Stuck. We as individuals are given a path for future. If we choose to choose life with a purpose ....with confidence and personal growth we can keep on forging towards that vision for Life.
Great words, Jan
Thanks for the reminder of your words of wisdom!
Thanks for the article and reminding us of all the facts that I know but somehow forgot! It's so true about the 10% genetics and 90% behavior! My favorite saying is there are always people who WATCH things happen, and those that WAIT for this to happen and then those that MAKE things happen! I guess I'm part of the 90%!
Thanks for the reminder Vicki! -Ginny :)
