- 0:01Speaker 1: There's nobody in the world has lied to me more
- 0:06Speaker 1: than me. How many times you tell yourself.
- 0:10Speaker 2: It's going to be different this year.
- 0:14Speaker 3: How many times have you started the diet saying, Oh,
- 0:17Speaker 3: this is my year. I'm going to start this year strong,
- 0:20Speaker 3: I'm going to the gym, I'm gonna eat right two.
- 0:23Speaker 1: Weeks later, what you do you lie to yourself.
- 0:27Speaker 4: If you sit down right now and made a list
- 0:29Speaker 4: of everybody that is lied to you, you'd be number
- 0:32Speaker 4: one on that list. Remove yourself from the list of
- 0:37Speaker 4: people that have disappointed you, that have lied to you,
- 0:40Speaker 4: that have let you down. You are number one on
- 0:43Speaker 4: that list. Remove yourself.
- 0:47Speaker 3: People who succeed, people who don't even make New Year's
- 0:51Speaker 3: resolutions because they're always doing that they're supposed to do,
- 0:56Speaker 3: understand that things are not always going to be ideal,
- 1:01Speaker 3: things are not always going to be convenient. There's going
- 1:04Speaker 3: to be things that you can do or find, or
- 1:09Speaker 3: say or listen to that will help you justify you
- 1:13Speaker 3: not sticking to your plan. But successful people know this,
- 1:17Speaker 3: and they stick to the plan regardless. They understand that
- 1:21Speaker 3: things are going to get tired, they understand that things
- 1:23Speaker 3: are going to be hard, They understand that things are
- 1:25Speaker 3: going to be inconvenient. They understand there's gonna be weddings
- 1:29Speaker 3: and holidays and vacations at every turn of our existence.
- 1:37Speaker 3: They don't train themselves to use those as excuses.
- 1:40Speaker 1: Everybody runs from pressure.
- 1:43Speaker 5: Pressure is a privilege.
- 1:44Speaker 6: It transcends whatever you're doing.
- 1:46Speaker 7: It's not a switch you turn it on and off.
- 1:49Speaker 4: Cleaner switches don't need to be turning off.
- 1:53Speaker 7: There's no such thing as beast mobile.
- 1:56Speaker 2: They're just beasts. Are you keep doing the exact same thing?
- 2:00Speaker 2: Are you gonna make the necessary adjustments? See the resilient mindset.
- 2:05Speaker 2: It takes ownership for its mistakes. It learns, it grows,
- 2:10Speaker 2: it revises, it executes, but it never ever breaks. You
- 2:13Speaker 2: heard me, I said, the resilient mindset takes ownership for
- 2:16Speaker 2: its mistakes.
- 2:17Speaker 1: It learns, it grows, it.
- 2:19Speaker 2: Revises, and executes, but it never ever breaks.
- 2:23Speaker 4: Don't you get it.
- 2:24Speaker 2: You are an unbreakable force, You are an unbreakable spirit.
- 2:28Speaker 3: But you just gotta follow through.
- 2:30Speaker 1: You just gotta finish.
- 2:32Speaker 2: This new year gives you an opportunity to do something
- 2:35Speaker 2: that you've never done before your natural life.
- 2:38Speaker 1: So my question is, what are you waiting for?
- 2:41Speaker 2: It's just that new year's energy, to put that battery
- 2:45Speaker 2: in your back, to put that foot in your butt,
- 2:49Speaker 2: to push you to get up and make the necessary
- 2:54Speaker 2: changes to live the life that you say you want
- 2:58Speaker 2: to live.
- 2:59Speaker 5: There's no room for softness, no place for weakness, not
- 3:06Speaker 5: even for a moment. There is only the hard, only
- 3:12Speaker 5: the great, only the strong.
- 3:22Speaker 1: What's stopping you?
- 3:24Speaker 7: Are you tired?
- 3:26Speaker 5: Didn't good enough sleep, don't have enough energy, don't have
- 3:31Speaker 5: enough time?
- 3:32Speaker 1: Is that what's stopping you right now?
- 3:34Speaker 2: Don't have enough money?
- 3:37Speaker 5: Is that the thing?
- 3:40Speaker 3: Or is the thing that's stopping you?
- 3:43Speaker 1: You dare you stop evaluating yourself?
- 3:47Speaker 2: The day you stop broad, the day you stop getting better,
- 3:50Speaker 2: is the day you die. Is the day the person
- 3:53Speaker 2: who's trying to catch you will get you.
- 3:56Speaker 8: So you see all these people that have break things
- 3:58Speaker 8: in life that you look up to it because they
- 3:59Speaker 8: were sacrifice and disciplined long before you ever knew them.
- 4:04Speaker 1: That's the truth.
- 4:06Speaker 8: So don't get mad later when you created your whole
- 4:08Speaker 8: storm and then it starts rating on you.
- 4:11Speaker 1: You have to accept what you're not.
- 4:14Speaker 4: You have to and people don't want to do that.
- 4:16Speaker 6: That's the only way you can fix it. You have
- 4:19Speaker 6: to accept it.
- 4:20Speaker 4: First before you can go on the journey.
- 4:22Speaker 6: Now, when you think about holy my job as a parent,
- 4:26Speaker 6: as an entrepreneur, as an athlete, as a speaker, as
- 4:29Speaker 6: a whatever you want to be, You've got to get
- 4:33Speaker 6: so good at that thing that when people see you
- 4:37Speaker 6: do it, you make them experience the most potent human emotion,
- 4:42Speaker 6: and that is awe.
- 4:44Speaker 3: Every addiction has a trigger and when you start to act,
- 4:49Speaker 3: that's when the magic happens. Okay, when you step up
- 4:53Speaker 3: on a test day, when you successfully complete a test day,
- 4:58Speaker 3: it's going to be one of the the most your formant,
- 5:01Speaker 3: powerful experiences that you've ever had. You're going to see
- 5:06Speaker 3: immediate confidence, immediate boost and self esteem.
- 5:10Speaker 1: For every level.
- 5:11Speaker 5: There's another devil.
- 5:13Speaker 9: Get off the pitybody, separate yourself from everybody else. Be
- 5:19Speaker 9: the bull at whatever you do. And I don't care
- 5:21Speaker 9: if you're in the mail room or if you're the
- 5:23Speaker 9: person behind that camera. Then I'm going to be better
- 5:25Speaker 9: than anybody else with that camera. And I'm going to
- 5:27Speaker 9: be the best male carrier and the person who comes
- 5:30Speaker 9: up and it's the most organized and does it the
- 5:32Speaker 9: most professional way. You can be the bull at any
- 5:35Speaker 9: position you're doing, and it's just telling yourself, I'm going
- 5:38Speaker 9: to do this better than anybody else.
- 5:40Speaker 7: I don't care how many times you try, try again.
- 5:45Speaker 7: I don't care how many times you heard no, ask again.
- 5:50Speaker 7: I don't care how many times you fall get up.
- 5:55Speaker 7: You don't stop when you get frustrated. You pursue for
- 6:00Speaker 7: as long as it takes.
- 6:07Speaker 8: You can decide that you're going to stand up to life.
- 6:11Speaker 3: You can decide that I'm going to live each day
- 6:13Speaker 3: as if it were my last.
- 6:16Speaker 1: You have the power to make that decision. The start
- 6:29Speaker 1: of a new year is the perfect time to turn
- 6:32Speaker 1: a new page, which is probably why so many people
- 6:34Speaker 1: make New Year's resolutions. The new year often feels like
- 6:38Speaker 1: a fresh start and a great opportunity to change bad
- 6:41Speaker 1: habits and establish new routines that will help you grow psychologically, emotionally, socially, physically,
- 6:49Speaker 1: or intellectually. Of course, resolutions are much easier to make
- 6:53Speaker 1: than to keep, and by the end of March many
- 6:55Speaker 1: of us have abandoned our resolve and settled back into
- 6:58Speaker 1: our old patterns. Part of the problem maybe that we
- 7:00Speaker 1: do not know how to keep New Year's resolutions despite
- 7:04Speaker 1: our good intentions. Why do millions of people resolve to
- 7:08Speaker 1: change at the beginning of every year. A series of
- 7:11Speaker 1: studies into what researchers have dubbed the fresh start effect
- 7:15Speaker 1: has looked at how temporal landmarks can motivate aspirational behaviors.
- 7:20Speaker 1: The new year feels like a new beginning, which is
- 7:22Speaker 1: why so many people often set lofty resolutions during these times.
- 7:26Speaker 1: While this practice can sometimes lead people to bite off
- 7:31Speaker 1: more than they can chew, going after resolutions can also
- 7:35Speaker 1: present great opportunities to overcome struggles with willpower, determination, and ingenuity.
- 7:42Speaker 1: Perceptions of the success of these resolutions vary. In one study,
- 7:48Speaker 1: only around twelve percent of people who make New Year's
- 7:52Speaker 1: resolutions felt that they were successful in achieving their goals.
- 7:57Speaker 1: Some of the most common resolutions include losing weight, sticking
- 8:01Speaker 1: to a healthier diet, exercising regularly, making better financial choices,
- 8:06Speaker 1: quitting smoking, spending more time with family. While many people
- 8:11Speaker 1: feel that they don't achieve their resolution goals, one study
- 8:15Speaker 1: showed that those who set New Year's resolutions are ten
- 8:18Speaker 1: times more likely to actually change their behavior than people
- 8:22Speaker 1: who don't make these yearly goals. So how long do
- 8:25Speaker 1: resolutions last? While most surveys suggest that the majority of
- 8:29Speaker 1: people don't stick with their New Year's resolutions for long.
- 8:33Speaker 1: One twenty twenty study found that fifty fives of participants
- 8:37Speaker 1: consider themselves successful at sustaining resolutions after a year. In
- 8:41Speaker 1: that study, researchers found that people were more successful at
- 8:45Speaker 1: keeping approach oriented goals, such as changing eating or sleeping habits,
- 8:51Speaker 1: rather than avoidance oriented ones, which are motivated by a
- 8:55Speaker 1: desire to avoid something. Even if resolutions don't always stick,
- 9:01Speaker 1: that doesn't mean that resolutions aren't worth making. One survey
- 9:05Speaker 1: found that people who plan to make New Year's resolutions
- 9:09Speaker 1: were more optimistic about the future. So what can you
- 9:13Speaker 1: do to make it more likely that you'll keep your
- 9:16Speaker 1: next resolution? The following tips may help you beat the odds.
- 9:21Speaker 1: Choose a specific goal. Every year, millions of adults resolved
- 9:26Speaker 1: to lose weight, be more productive, or get in shape
- 9:29Speaker 1: during the next year. Instead of selecting such an ambiguous goal,
- 9:33Speaker 1: focus on something more concrete that you can realistically set
- 9:37Speaker 1: your sights on. In other words, choose a very specific,
- 9:40Speaker 1: achievable goal. For example, you might commit to losing ten pounds,
- 9:44Speaker 1: making daily to do lists, or running a half marathon.
- 9:50Speaker 1: Be sure to make your goal realistic rather than drastic.
- 9:54Speaker 1: Choosing a concrete, achievable goal also gives you the opportunity
- 9:59Speaker 1: to plan exactly how you're going to accomplish and stick
- 10:04Speaker 1: to your goal over the course of the year. Limit
- 10:08Speaker 1: your resolutions. While you might have a long list of
- 10:12Speaker 1: potential New Year's resolutions, Richard Wiseman, a professor of psychology
- 10:16Speaker 1: at Hertfordshire University, suggests that you pick just one and
- 10:21Speaker 1: focus your energies on it. Rather than spreading yourself too
- 10:24Speaker 1: thin among a number of different objectives, focus on one
- 10:29Speaker 1: goal at a time. Achieving even one small goal can
- 10:34Speaker 1: boost your belief in yourself. For larger goals, consider breaking
- 10:38Speaker 1: them apart into manageable chunks to work on one at
- 10:42Speaker 1: a time. The American Psychological Association also suggests focusing on
- 10:47Speaker 1: just one behavior at a time is more likely to
- 10:49Speaker 1: lead to long term success. Taking on too much all
- 10:53Speaker 1: at once can be daunting. It can be particularly difficult
- 10:58Speaker 1: because establish publishing new behavioral patterns takes time and sustained effort.
- 11:05Speaker 1: Focusing on one specific goal makes keeping a resolution much
- 11:10Speaker 1: more achievable. Put time into planning. Don't wait until the
- 11:16Speaker 1: last minute to choose your goal. Picking wisely and putting
- 11:20Speaker 1: in extensive planning are essential parts of achieving any goal.
- 11:26Speaker 1: Experts suggest that you brainstorm how you will tackle a
- 11:30Speaker 1: major behavior change, including the steps you will take, why
- 11:35Speaker 1: you want to do it, and ways you can keep
- 11:37Speaker 1: yourself on track. Make a detailed plan. Creating a detailed,
- 11:42Speaker 1: written plan can help you stick to your goal. Why
- 11:46Speaker 1: is this stage so critical for success? For one thing,
- 11:50Speaker 1: it allows you to consider what tactics you will use
- 11:53Speaker 1: when you're faced with challenges when things get difficult? What
- 11:56Speaker 1: strategies will you use to stay on the path toward
- 11:59Speaker 1: making your resolution or reality. If you start working toward
- 12:03Speaker 1: a goal without any type of plan in place, you
- 12:06Speaker 1: may quickly find yourself giving up when faced with any
- 12:08Speaker 1: sort of obstacle, setback, or resistance. For example, if your
- 12:13Speaker 1: goal is to run three times per week, what will
- 12:16Speaker 1: you do if you've missed four days in a row
- 12:19Speaker 1: and how will you proceed if you need to take
- 12:23Speaker 1: time off for an illness or injury. You can start
- 12:26Speaker 1: by writing down your goal, making a list of things
- 12:29Speaker 1: you might do to achieve that goal, and noting any
- 12:32Speaker 1: obstacles that might stand in your way. By knowing exactly
- 12:36Speaker 1: what you want to accomplish and the difficulties you might face,
- 12:40Speaker 1: you'll be better prepared to stick to your resolution and
- 12:43Speaker 1: overcome anything that might sidetrack you. Start with small steps.
- 12:50Speaker 1: Taking on too much too quickly is a common reason
- 12:54Speaker 1: why so many New Year's resolutions fail. Starting an unsustainably
- 12:58Speaker 1: restrictive diet, overdoing it at the gym, or radically altering
- 13:02Speaker 1: your normal behavior are sure fireways to derail your plans. Instead,
- 13:07Speaker 1: focus on taking tiny steps that will ultimately help you
- 13:12Speaker 1: reach your larger goal. Avoid repeating past failures. Another strategy
- 13:18Speaker 1: for keeping your New Year's resolution is to not make
- 13:21Speaker 1: the exact same resolution year after year. If people think
- 13:24Speaker 1: they can do it, they probably can, But if they've
- 13:27Speaker 1: already tried and failed, their self belief will be low,
- 13:31Speaker 1: suggests Richard Wiseman. If you do choose to reach for
- 13:35Speaker 1: the same goals you've tried for in the past, spend
- 13:38Speaker 1: some time evaluating your previous results. Which strategies were the
- 13:43Speaker 1: most effective, which were the least effective. What has prevented
- 13:48Speaker 1: you from keeping your resolution in past years? Consider altering
- 13:53Speaker 1: your resolution slightly to make it more feasible. By changing
- 13:57Speaker 1: your approach, you will be more likely to see real
- 13:59Speaker 1: result results this year. Remember that change is a process.
- 14:06Speaker 1: Those unhealthier, undesired habits that you're trying to change probably
- 14:09Speaker 1: took years to develop, so how can you expect to
- 14:12Speaker 1: change them in just a matter of days, weeks, or months.
- 14:16Speaker 1: Be patient with yourself. Understand that working toward your resolution
- 14:23Speaker 1: is a process. Even if you make a misstep or two,
- 14:28Speaker 1: you can restart and continue on your journey towards your goal.
- 14:32Speaker 1: It may take longer than you would like to achieve
- 14:35Speaker 1: your goals, but remember that this is not a race
- 14:38Speaker 1: to the finish. Once you have made the commitment to
- 14:41Speaker 1: changing and behavior, it may be something that you continue
- 14:44Speaker 1: to work on for the rest of your life. Renew
- 14:47Speaker 1: your motivation. During the first days of a new year's resolution,
- 14:52Speaker 1: you will probably feel confident and highly motivated to reach
- 14:56Speaker 1: your goal because you haven't really faced any discomfort or
- 14:59Speaker 1: tempting associated with changing your behavior. Making this change might
- 15:04Speaker 1: seem all too easy. After dealing with the reality of
- 15:09Speaker 1: dragging yourself to the gym at six am or gritting
- 15:12Speaker 1: your teeth through headaches brought on by nicotine withdrawal, your
- 15:16Speaker 1: motivation to keep your new year's resolution may start to
- 15:20Speaker 1: dwindle when you face such moments. Remind yourself exactly why
- 15:24Speaker 1: you are doing this. Think about or write a list
- 15:27Speaker 1: to keep handy. What do you have to gain by
- 15:30Speaker 1: achieving your goal. Finding sources of inspiration can keep you
- 15:34Speaker 1: going when times get tough.
