“No, not this year,” you say. “No resolutions for me. They don’t work anyway.” Have you ever spent any time discovering WHY they “don’t work”?
Change is a very big deal. In order to change something about ourselves and then maintain the change, we need intention, determination, a detailed plan, support, and patience. We need to know ourselves and prepare for our weak moments. Finally, we need to include our rescue plan if we fall off our change horse.
Counsellors are equipped for supporting change with you. Consider including a couple of sessions with a counsellor when you are planning the details of your change.
