New Year Resolution Pitfalls

Being vague about what you want

Turning slip-ups to give-ups

Not having backup plans

Trying to go it alone

Procrastinating and excuse-making—no time, wrong time, dog ate homework

Not making a serious commitment

Not setting up a tracking and reminder system

Expecting perfection, falling into guilt, shame, regret

Unwilling to go through the awkward phase

Telling yourself self-limiting rut stories
